Too hyped up

Rating: 5/10 (10 May 2020)

I liked only the first 30 minutes or so - the rest is just too... I don't know how to put it, well it's kind of boring most of the time. It's too hyped up. I don't agree with the portrayal of the classes - the rich guys are idiots (how did they become rich), the poor guys are smart and cunning (why are they poor then?) and then we get the "big reveal moment" in the movie and from then on it just dies out.
There's something not right with the film, I just can't put my finger on in. Intelectually speaking, the film discusses the classic societal and class problems. It's like the "Malevich Square", there will be a million different interpretations to it's meaning. I don't know if the director intended for it to be anything deep and to have many different layers - but anyone is free to make his own judgement.
I didn't like the ending, it's got the classical blood thirsty ending that so many asian movies have that it's almost cliche.
In the end I think it's overrated, this is a solid 5, it's watchable but that's it for me.
