The Con Artists is one of those classic films of "Let's outsmart each other" kind of storyline. It's classic, easily interesting, but not something we haven't seen before. First of all, the storyline is typical, not going to lie to you, you can easily find a similar one in another action movie. Despite that it still is an interesting movie. There is no romance overflow thankfully, as those kind of action movies tend to be a little bit too much "I love you, oh wait I don't, you're a criminal". Although there was a little bit of it, it was tasteful enough not to ruin the actual focus of the film : the action. Where it is different from other films is the actual characters, their personality and their goals : all of this is more or less hidden from you until the end of the film, which is an aspect - albeit a little predictable for some - I appreciate. You kind of know where the story is going, but you don't (at least I didn't) see up to what extent it went. Now I'll agree there is no character development, I don't think that was the point of the movie. What I think it wanted to show you was what they are, not what they have become, which is a nice change from other films where the protagonists go through their "Becoming a better person" phase. So although the story is kinda classic, it is different enough to be set apart from the other, a tleast from my point of view. For the cast, I probably wouldn't change anything. They all acted their roles out well, I really have nothing to pick at, it was pretty well acted out. The music ... I don't know actually, I don't remember being that invested in the music, but more into the action. Is that a good thing? Perhaps it meant the story was so interesting you don't notice the music. Up to you, but I don't have anything to say about the music. Overall, the movie is pretty good, I really liked how the story was told, how every single scene meant something in the end, they all have some sort of clue, hidden in the background. Not one scene is meaningless. One thing I could pick at is the emotional depth of the movie. There wasn't really a moment where the movie grabbed you and really made you feel anything - except maybe awkwardness. And also, I find that Eun Ha's character wasn't really researched, nor was her backstory. I wish they had explained, or elaborated a bit more on her role in the story, but oh well. To me it seemed kind of ... shallow, not enough depth to the character or that aspect of the story. I suppose had they elaborated, the pang of emotion I was looking for could have been there, especially since it is intricately linked with the main story. A detail I regret. As for rewatching it, I'm not too sure. Maybe, but I don't have the urge to rewatch and replay key scenes, or maybe just the scenes, but not the film itself. It was good, I really like it, but I don't love it.
