Artistic but thrilling
|
If you want to watch a thief thrilling movie, this is the film that is right for you. Uhm Jung Hwa channels plays a sexy glamorous art dealer while Kim Rae Won plays a well known brash upstart who can restore any piece of art to perfection. The good one is the later part when they exchange the painting and how it was executed is nearly perfect. Good one. Kim Rae Won dresses really well. Soooo sexy for a man. |

Entertaining overstuffed thriller
|
"Insadong Scandal" is a stylish and surprisingly action-packed film about the marketing and forgery of ancient artworks. Uhm Jung Hwa, sporting a helmet-like hairdo, stars as Tae Jin, an utterly ruthless art dealer who believes that she has acquired a legendary old Korean painting. She hires Kang Jun (Kim Rae Won) to restore the work to its former glory. Kang Jun had been the enfant terrible of the art-restoring world, but now appears to be just a terrible gambler, wasting his life and losing card games. Kang Jun wishes to seize this opportunity to enrich himself. "Insadong Scandal" paints a picture of an art world in which everyone is out for themselves, no one's motives can be trusted, and anyone who crosses the imperious Tae Jin will pay the consequences. The film boasts a tremendous cast giving excellent performances. Uhm Jung Hwa is utterly believable as the 'ice queen' art dealer. On the other hand, one needs a score card to keep track of the multiplicity of characters and all the schemes within schemes. The film would have benefitted from being streamlined; fewer characters and fewer subplots could have yielded a much tauter film. Nonetheless, "Insadong Scandal" is a gaudy, glossy, gripping peek into the greedy gremlins of Korea's art scene. |
