I was expecting more but it was nothing special.
To tell you the truth in the beginning the only reason I watched was Son Ye-Jin, but I really enjoy it in the end. They look so good together. Hyun Bin as a bad guy, yummy. And Ye- Jin is amazing as always. A decent movie to pass the time. Nothing more, nothing less.
Not my cup of tea. I do prefer Korean drama to the Americans but this one was too much. Also the end was so bad.
So, I just got around watching it, yes I know 6 years too late. In my defense I watched the British version first (the Fingersmith series) and thought they are one and the same. That was my mistake. It is based on the book and yes there are almost the same emphasis on the almost. But this one is by far the better one. Some think are explained better in the British version for example the reason around wearing gloves. But still for me this one is better. There is a plot twist within the plot twist. The movie is separated in three consecutive chapters and you go from one plot twist to the other, that leaves you in stun. Let's say it's a sweet revenge of the two leading ladies on all the men that have wronged them, while falling for each other . I definitely recommend it, is a Masterpiece everything is done perfectly from the two leading actresses who are amazing and have great chemistry to the sick son of a bitch uncle. I watched the extended version, it's 2 hours and 48 minutes the normal cut is around 2 hours and 24 minutes. To tell you the truth I don't know the deference between them and which scenes are cut or shorten . I would have gone without the last scene or a lighter version of it. Perfect end!
