Way too dark and a lot of over acting especially the female villain. Let me say this. After watching it, I felt worse than when I watched it. It had a negative affect on me. The plot was mundane and not very clever. The direction was alright. But the overall movie and its theme was very depressing. It was too dark. It wasn't slick and intense in a good way. It was just a bunch of Villains getting at each other but the Villains were boring, hard to watch, and in your face all the time. You have to make something that has good moments, some resolution, some moments of awe.... but this wasn't it. There's a lot more than can be said but I'll leave it at that.

This sequel film is the perfect example of when companies ruin good films by forcing a terrible sequel that tries to wedge itself inbetween the stories of the first film. They basically ruined the ending they originally had & to top it off they swapped out Ryu Jun-Yeol who played Seo Young Rak in the 1st film & god knows why but the new guy playing him decided to take the character into a different direction contradicting his original character. So in the 1st film u had this stoic, cold, calculating, almost like hes emotionless type of Villain n yet able to still portray himself looking innocent & trustable... & now in the 2nd film you got the new guy acting as if hes now got all these emotional expressions suddenly & worst of all hes now showing fear smh. In the first film u would never see fear in the 1st actors face because he knew he was playing a sociopathic emotionless Villain, now we got a watered down sappy version of him lol. They really fumbled this one... but even with so much criticism n bad things about the film you could always still find some good things; such as the guy playing Brian is now putting in another top notch performance to portray a very injured, psychotic villain. I mean every screen time he gets hes putting in the work to show every line he delivers that his character is experiencing searing n blistering pain & its such a good performance that it leaves u in such high praise of his talent to act. Lastly you got the new villain Big Knife played by Han Hyo-Joo & she matches her predecessors energy & talent in portraying a narcissistic meth addict badass gangster. She channeled the passion & finesse of the last actor to play Jin Ha Rim (played by Ju Hyuk Kim) & they make such a perfect match for their respective roles. The new guy playing Jin Ha Rim did not pull it off well, he went from in 1st film being such a maniacal, jittery, spontaneosly crazy serial killer like druggie gangster to now in 2nd film some cool calm assasin like killer lol. I would have rated this a 4/10 but the 2 villains performance at least held up well so 5/10.

I Don't know why ryo jun yeol replaced to oh seung, which makes the story less impact. In part 2 its a good click to continue where the part 1 ended. But the impact make ryo on part 1 is remarkable. Part 1 build the story very well but Don't know why the Director wants to make This hurry!!! Action, acting of other actors are good. The main villain MR. LEE should be revealed in the half of the movie. But he showed up at climax. And as a typical ending the movie ends upon a family issue. Which is good. Transition of this movie is very fast. All the hidden site was revealed very fast. All the people find themselves very fast. To finding hidden place should be tough.

Good movie!

One thing that good from this movie only its action... Or maybe if u see it as a single movie, it's still good..but if you see it as a sequel..it completely bad.. In the first movie, mr lee is from korea and try to smuggle laika into china...and jin ha rim even don't know who is mr lee and try to make appointment so he can meet mr lee.. But how come in these sequel, jin ha rim already work with mr lee?? And mr lee actually based in china... The first movie is actually the best with the plot that rak is mr lee, if only the director of the sequel creating the story with rak as mr lee, and make seob so cheon or/and director brian make revenge from the first sequel tragedy, i think it's gonna be great..so sad the plot twisted so much even not connected from the first believer. But yes.if u haven't look believer...it's still good action movie..only because this is a sequel and the plot make it worse.
