The story seems kind of simple and straight to the point but I think the back story is what truly carried it because it is one plot twist you definitely don't see coming. Throughout the movie you're just left wondering "why". The acting was so marvelous I commend Lee Min Ki especially because he portrayed his character the best in my opinion. Every role complemented each other no-one was outshining another which made it seem much more realistic.
I don't remember the music honestly I was too busy trying to figure out the end game.
Seeing as technically I unintentionally re-watched it, I wouldn't mind watching it again with someone. I'm a huge fan of psychological dramas and movies. Things that make you think like "damn what could I have possibly done if I were in that situation?"
I definitely recommend this movie the acting is superb the story is simple but complex in its own way and it really makes you question yourself and how you would react to certain situations. But I have to say for me personally by the end of it.....................i think they deserved everything they got.

The STORY isn't something new...some unbeliveble survival contest with 8 people who love money or need it desperately.I really didn't think much of it...just a movie so I an make time move faster.
This is were The CAST enters.The acting was great in my opinion.Park Hee Soon was amazing....he made me tremble for 55 minutes.The actors did a great thing in entering their characters feelings and emotions and I was really caught in Lee Min Ki and Jung Yu Mi relethionship.It was so twisted and heartbreaking...once again you discover how important your own life is.
The MUSIC was nothing special...I barely remember it...but this kind of film doesn't need movie because the scenes are strange and complicated enough.So I really didn't need any kind of music to enjoy it.
I would totally REWATCH this movie!It was so interesting and emotional that I'm sure I won't get bored from it.
This movie tells a story that uncoveres the fact that anyone, I mean ANYONE, can turn crazy because of things that happened in his life.
I can't say that this is one of my favorite movies but I can assure you that is worth watching...if you want something phisological and action packed.

The storyline was solid but not amazing. It was a little slow in parts for the genre the movie is in. There were a few moments when I was intrested but for most parts its just average.
This movie is the type of movie where you need good actors or else it won't work. I mentioned before I watched this because of Lee Min Ki, he was good in it and if you like him then I definatly suggest watching this. I have also been introduced to some new actors and after watching this I will go check them out. For such a large cast, I think the variety worked well.
There wasn't much music in this movie, mostly it was instrumental so I didn't really notice it. Which is a good point because the soundtrack fitted the mood and It would have affected the veiwing if a song was out of place.
Overall I don't think I would watch this again purely because it is not my type of film. But I think someone who likes action, being trapped and realisim then this film would make a good watch.
