A predictable, but surprisingly entertaining hell of a ride

As a person who doesn’t really care for movies full of action and cars, I was a bit hesitant to watch this. What eventually persuaded me? The beautiful cast and the 80’s nostalgic feels it has.

I was pleasantly surprised. It’s fast paced and kept me engaged from the beginning. Don’t expect a very in-depth story with surprising plot twists; it’s all quite predictable and like the average action movie story. However, in an entertaining kind of way.

You’ll get to see a fine looking cast that does a good job and clearly had fun making this. The only character that was a bit too much for my liking was Song Min-Ho as Galchi.
The music felt somewhat out of place sometimes, but in a way that complemented the vibes of the movie.

Was i a bit bored with the ‘feet on the pedals’ closeups? Yes.
Was the same camera trick used every time a car was spinning on the road? Yes.
Was I surprised by the ending? Not at all.
But it kept me captivated until the end and had me entertained. And sometimes that’s enough.
