The Thieves

Summary

Popie, Yenicall, Chewingum and Zampano are a Korean team of professional thieves. After receiving a call about a job in Hong Kong, the thieves team up with four Hong Kong thieves for the heist of their lives. Their goal: steal a $20 million necklace locked away in a casino owned by the ruthless criminal Wei Yong.

My Comments

Being a huge fan of the drama 'You who came from the stars', I was absolutely delighted to discover Gianna Jun (Yenicall) and Kim Soo Hyun (Zampano) in the same film! The chemistry between the characters is amazing.

This film reminded me of the American film 'Oceans Eleven'. I wouldn't say I loved this film more that 'Oceans Eleven' but it's easy to see why this film is the third best selling film at the South Korean box-office after 'The Host' and 'Avatar'.
The films duration of 135min could have been shorter but overall it was an excellent film with amazing action scenes.
