There are also other swindler teammates that doesn’t really know to trust him, so things don’t always go as planned. He has this grand plan to catch Doo Chil, but he’s also trapped in Hee Soo’s own plans, as he has the means and power to help him at the moment while he’s on the rocks when it comes to the spending part of the job. The thing is, I find the film a bit dragging during two-thirds of it since Ji Sung, the protagonist, looks like a really capable swindler but ends up always failing, getting caught and being beaten up.

They are all wonderful actors, but the film story doesn’t give justice to what they are all capable of in reality. That aside, in my opinion, the movie works for me, but it isn’t to the point of magnificence that can be made up for by the cast. I have those periods a lot of times in a year, so I often forget that I actually had this movie saved in my flash disk. You know when you have those days right? You want to do something but a part of you doesn’t want you to, so you do something else. I had been thinking of watching the film since last year, but I just can’t be in the mood. Individually, Ji Sung and Prosecutor Park have their own motives why they are after the con man, but together they will work to bring down their biggest enemy. This is where Prosecutor Park comes in and later seeks Ji Sung’s help together with other swindlers. The sudden uproar about Doo Chil’s current whereabouts shake up lawmakers and high ranking officials that used to do bad stuff with him and to make sure Doo Chil never speaks a word about them, they must make sure he doesn’t stay alive. Ji Sung also believes that the con artist is still there, somewhere in Thailand. Rumors go around though that Jang Doo Chil is alive and only faked his death to avoid the public’s eye. However, Doo Chil is said to have died years ago. Hwang Ji Sung is after the con artist Jang Doo Chil to take revenge for the death of his father.

We say that idol-actors are probably the worst, but I guess this film marks the industry giving their trust to someone finally capable along with already established names.Īnyway, enough with the talk, I’ll make this review sweet and quick. The main point of the movie is most likely the actors since we get Hyun Bin, Yoo Ji Tae, Park Sung Woong, and of course Nana who has made a name for herself and is acknowledged by k-netz and international fans for her talent. A 2017 film, ‘ The Swindlers‘ makes me a few years behind from movies you probably really want to hear about, but I know I just can’t not talk about this movie.
