the first half is yawn fest
I never read the novel so idk about the story. My favorite character are Dokkaebi, Junhyeok, Jihye, Heewon. For the movie, I find Dokja contradicting himself many time; on train he seems to care to save people but then all his thoughts is about "if I want to survive I must make sure the hero don't die". So is he selfish or is he trying to save everyone? In green zone, his 1st thought is to save himself bcos Jihye said so like what...and Jihye, her role is literally being like added just to add a member. The part she killed the human-monster and shattered the green spot are cool but the scenes are def filmed separately despite they're supposed to be together. she appears out of nowhere and suddenly mentioning "master". The master never mention her what even is this? And how did she get the gun and speed? They show how Sangah, Heewon, Hyuseung, Gilyeong got their skills/weapon, but Jihye just appears as is. Then after she shot 1 bullet to fire dragon when everyone else did something too But on 2nd round when everyone fought the dragon she's not seen even for a sec? So is her role not important there? Then in end scene she's there ready for next scenario. It's really an odd character like should I care about her bcs the director don't show much of her but seems like she's importantI kinda not rooting for Dokja at all and hope that blue dokkaebi will eat his ass. Sangah Heewon Hyuseung Gilyeong can survive by themselves. And I think he should be shorter and skinnier if they want to make him look weak and easy bully target bcos he's so well built,no way he's a loser irl even as office boy like be fr. But after they killed the fire dragon, I still want to know what will happen next since Dokja knows stuff others don't so we still need him just bcos of that. They barely show Junhyeok backstory too like it's too simple to narrate a supposed hero when some other's scene being unnecessary
Everyone acting skills are just about the same. The game and coin concept are cool BUT the vfx is really bad. I only stayed til the end bcos I know Jisoo going to show up soon. Idk how many times I yawned during the train and that dinosaur stomach scenes, he took like forever. I'll only rewatch to see Jihye and Dokkaebi he's kinda evil-cute
