This is yet another wonderful, if dark, movie from Korea. The story centers around a kidnapped boy who is raised by a group of Assassin's/Heist men. The"leader" is very dark and has little to any empathy. The point of this movie is discovery, betrayal, and vengeance. Most of it being very bloody, yet more "true to life" than glorified or over the top. I would highly recommend this movie.
