Just a few minutes in, I had to nod approvingly at how well-executed the tricks are in this film. Seriously. It's kind of pseudo-epic, but those tricks do stand out, even after seven years since this Korean oddity was released. The film wanted to ride on the popularity of fantasy movies and connect them with the modern world. The story is silly, the acting even more so, the jokes didn't really work except for one. But yeah. This is a fairly typical B-movie that I can handle. Nothing groundbreaking, but it didn't waste an hour and a half of my time.
