Ignition (2019)

the story started off lighthearted and funny, we had 2 teenagers (yes both 30 year old mains were acting as 18 year olds, but they did a really great job showing the youthfulness), who wanted to make money, Go Taek Il left his house and ended up working at a chinese restaurant, while Woo Sang Pil became a loan shark but he didn't know how dangerous that job was.
I do fee like they brushed past the key points a little too fast, but since it was a webtoon it must've been hard to squeezed all of that in a 1 hour 45 min movie.
I really liked how each character had their own backstory and traumas, usually movies just focus on the main and everyone else just exists in their world. by the middle part we got to see the emotional baggage the side characters had, but I do think they solved everything way too easily. the tension was going up up up and then it disappeared.

still though I did highly enjoy the characters and it made me laugh a little and sometimes that's all I need. not everything needs to be dramatic.

I never rewatch things but maybe there's hope for a 2nd season ;)

This movie is great If you are looking for something light and fun, yet meaningful to watch without the need to shed tears! The story is character-focused and has a message to convey but it doesn't dive deep into characters' emotions.

Don't expect much comedy or action, however, don't underestimate the fun from watching the great cast. Loved Jung min, as always, his acting flows naturally and never fails to impress me. Ma Dong Seok comes in a new look and it's hilarious XD Hae in is still a cute puppy, and I was so glad at the honorable cameo appearance of Park Hae Joon!!

The movie might have ended abruptly but I'm glad everything was kept simple. Overall, it's worth watching!
