A Fun and Entertaining Movie to Pass the Time

Showing you the daily life of a family so desperate for money they are willingly hurting themselves to get insurrance money and become professional scammers, Just Do It! is a fun and nice movie to watch when you're not sure what you want to watch and you don't want something too serious. The introduction scene already shows you what the movie will all be about : a blind man who can in fact see the money bill in front of him ? A passerby stealing it to buy a lottery ticket? The movie invites you into a world of "Scam or be Scammed".

The story went straight to the point and developped rather quickly (which is rare for a korean film) which I appreciated: they knew the subject was fine but not that fine to warrant a 2h long film. The characters alternate between being so desperate you understand where they may be coming and being pathetically ridiculous at times (which also is the point, I think). But they were quite nice, not much over-acting if at all and convincing performances overall.

The comedy did not hit me all the time I must say (they really had something with peeing, I do not see it, what was up with that) but overall it was still fun most of the times. The soundtrack was quite nice, good taste in the music department to choose some nice songs I like.

I also had fun trying to spot a young Jeon Seok Ho but sadly to no avail: maybe next time!

Overall, Just Do It! is nothing exceptionnal but does have these early 2000s vibes I like and if you have nothing better to do, it's good to pass the time and not think too much about it. Some interesting scenes here and there as well if you like to analyse films but nothing too big.

The only way to know if you'll like it is to...... Just Watch It!
