I love a fast and fun heist money, even ones that are not perfect can still deliver a worthwhile two hours of entertainment. A big budget star studded one is coming soon from Netflix which is also expanding its Korean movie production and this one sounds fantastic! The streaming giant is funding the production of Seoul Vibe (Seoul Battle) and has assembled a nice cross section of veterans and young acting stars in K-ent. The cast consists of Yoo Ah In, Go Kyung Pyo, Kim Moo Yeol, Park Joo Hyun, Ong Seung Woo, Kim Sung Kyun, Jo Woong In, and Moon So Ri as opposing sides in a fight for the cash from a VIP Slush Fund related to the 1988 Seoul Olympics which is being transported on the day of the Opening Ceremony. The movie will feature lots of high speed car chases and the soundtrack will highlight the best of hip hop tracks popular during that era. I totally predict this movie will absolutely be a top 10 cracking hit on Netflix streaming when it airs, it’s hitting the blockbuster flick formula on the nose.
