Not rated. 2 hours 9 minutes
Saturday, March 10, 2018
1:00-4:00 PM
Off Campus Location
A blockbuster by former stuntman Jung Byung-gil (Confession of Murder 2012), the film feels like a first- person video game: “The camera whips to each new target with the assurance of someone who knows all the combinations, and has instinctive, practiced access to every code and cheat.”

The main character is an assassin (Kim Ok-bin) trying to escape her violent world, thrilling action-scene after action-scene, interspersed with some romance with her neighbor Hyun-soo Jung (Joon Sung).
