🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director constructs a grotesque sporting underworld where rules are made to be broken. The camera captures the sweat and tension of clandestine rings, with comedy arising from situational absurdity.

This appeals to viewers who appreciate dark humor and stories of people at rock bottom. You'll feel an odd sympathy for characters balancing desperation with fragile hope. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Kim Jee-woon
