This movie was a complete mess, with only the acting of Kim Soo Hyun that made it watchable.

Wow, what a terrible script. Nonsensical... and everyone who said you had to pay extremely close attention or watch it again to understand it MEANS IT IS A BAD MOVIE. I watched inception, thought it was an ok movie and the plot was easy enough to follow. This was purposefully vague because there was no good story to back it up. Mental illness and drugs are the bad guys. No subtlety at all.

The visuals are stimulating, but they can only get you so far when they relate to nothing. The movie is like watching a series of modern art paintings from a single artist but that has no context for the viewer to position them in.

I don't mind nudity or violence, and I love movies that are normally in this genre eg. Sin City. Here I thought the action senes were subpar and the nudity over the top. I did not believe the two main characters had feelings for each other at all. Sulli felt like she was an object of desire, and nothing else, and she said barely anything in the movie. If you asked me to describe any of the characters personalities I couldn't do it. I didn't feel anything for them because noone felt like a real person. There was no exploration of character, even though this is supposedly what it is all about!

One reason to watch - Kim Soo Hyun gets naked.
