really masterful and a unique entry in the "kill capitalism" genre.
lee byung hun is excellent, him allong with park's direction creates a film that pokes an eye at how jobs and to a larger extend, money controls us as a society and not only what we lose but how we treat eachother.
all of these people, no matter how much time we spent with them are victims in one way or another despite their conflicting morality.
park like his last feature, uses various fade ins and outs, split screens and other technique's to show the emotions of each character. the score is great as well and it helps build stakes in every scene.
its refreshing to see yoo man-soo win but at cost of his morals and humanity. he wins but he is still just another cog in a machine eager to replace anything it can to get bigger and bigger.
