Kim Sang-jin directs this riotous send-up of Korea's rigidly hierarchical society. A quartet of nihilistic losers including an alienated athlete, a longhaired burnout, a spaced-out artist, and a muscle-bound meathead take to knocking over 24-hour gas stations. Their initial success eventually leads to trouble when they decide to hold up the same gas station again "just for fun." Unfortunately, the store manager had his wife take much of the day's earnings home with her just prior to the robbery. Stumped as what to do next, the four take the staff hostage and start to taunt the middle-aged manager (his underlings soon join in). They ridicule potential customers and order Chinese food until the film's delirious final showdown between the four protagonists, the cops, a local clan of gangsters, and irate delivery boys. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

    Typical of Korean humor. Dry but w/ some slapstick and wacky situations. I did at one point ask myself "Where is this movie going" but as soon as that thought came up, the ending began to come together.

    I have watched this movie over and over again and am thoroughly entertained every single time. Most of my friends have enjoyed watching it as well, making my decision to give this a solid 5 stars even more enthusiastic. It's one thing liking the movie for myself, but knowing there's an audience with awesome taste out there gives hope for more movies like this to be made.
