Set in the 1930s, a plan is in place. The assassination plot is intended to take out a pro-Japanese group. Yeom Seok-Jin (Lee Jung-Jae) is an agent from the interim government. He plans out the assassination plot and gives orders to An Ok-Yoon (Gianna Jun). An Ok-Yoon is a deadly sniper and she works with fellow comrades Soksapo (Cho Jin-Woong) and Hwang Deok-Sam (Choi Duk-Moon). She takes on the mission due to her strong desire to see Korea's independence. Meanwhile, the aptly titled Hawaii Pistol (Ha Jung-Woo), another contract killer and his partner Younggam (Oh Dal-Su) are hired to take out An Ok-Yoon and her assassination team. There are many twists and turns that will leave you guessing and each team is determined to "take out" each other, before the cusp of World War II, as the Japanese imperialist army gathers more control on the Asian continent.

South Koreans show that for them, a genre mix, somewhat in the style of Gangs of New York, isn't a big problem, and they can handle it in their own way. With grace, with style, and most importantly, with a story that's not bad at all, one that is intriguingly developed, and the ending leads to a satisfactory conclusion. It might not be as grand as it seems, but it's definitely excellent.

The most expensive, highest-grossing and arguably best blockbuster from Korea this year. The big draw is the ensemble cast of big names, the breathtaking visuals, the brilliantly conceived 1933 atmosphere, the solid story, the interesting twists and most importantly the ACTION! I'm surprised that the action is R-rated, the blood is not spared in places and it is also dosed continuously and quite often, which keeps the viewer in suspense and reliably keeps the attention. There are only two fights, but for that the shootouts are shot superbly with a parade of nostalgic and varied firearms (the sniper scenes probably the best); it goes to show that Ji-hyeon Jeon has spent a lot of time preparing the shootouts. The luxury and enthusiasm can be felt in every shot of the film, and I'm happy to indulge in that. 80%
