This movie took Korea back 10 years in the action genre. Bad director, bad acting, bad action, and bad romance. Not sure what the director was thinking but he missed his target. If you wanna make cheesy action movies you don't need top talent. And hiring top talent won't make a bad movie good no matter how talented you are. Truly Forgettable Korean action movie inspired by a cheesy drama that didn't live to expectations. Everyone involved in this project has a confused look in there face like "why am i filming this crap...oh yeah I'm being paid" The main actor Lee Byung Hun didn't even know what direction to take his character and banked his talent to outweigh a mess of a movie. Fortunately, his next project I Saw The Devil was a masterpiece so we can forgot he was in this lost movie. Even If you have nothing better to do I suggest you watch something else.

I couldn't stop watching the suspense thriller with lots of twists and turns throughout. I've watched lots of S Korean movies ad this is one of the best coz I was kept on my toes not knowing what's next; those are my type of movies. All the actors were great and the story makes sense and is what happens in CIA and other secret service cases where agents are either used or betrayed by their own. There are a few cases of confusion as to the role of the IRIS assassin and her relationship with an NSS agent which I could connect to the movie. Lots of romantic scenes of the 2 agents before real actin begins. Good job by cast and directors!
