I went into Money not having an idea of what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised. In terms of story - it's primarily based on stock exchange which is largely a super dry topic for a lot of individuals but it's enhanced in this case with the initial premise and closing statement of the film - and this is not a spoiler - "I just wanted to be rich." Who doesn't want that?
When it comes down to it though, the writers have done an excellent job in making the story interesting by balancing their numbers game with drawing viewers into the cat and mouse thrill of the chase of money. Everything falls into place, everything makes sense and there is a great twist at the end, so look out for that.
With Ryu Jun Yeol and Yoo Ji Tae, you really never know what you're going to get in terms of story line because they both choose pretty decent roles that they know they can challenge well. The cast exceeded my expectations and even the supporting cast held their roles well. We see the differences in Cho Il Hyun and Jun Woo Sung as they grow separate in their job roles and friendships and the divides money can bring to friends, colleagues and family. The acting was done well. Also let's be real, we have stellar and experienced support role players here with Jo Woo Jin and Jung Man Shik - most of us know their faces even if we don't know their names. They're pretty great dudes.
The music was above average, though thinking about it now it's been about 15 minutes and regretfully, while I know I enjoyed it, I don't remember much of it, much less a standout piece.
Overall I rated a 9 because I feel it's hard to make the stock exchange interesting and though I expected to be comparing to Default (also excellent) or Wolf of Wall Street, I found myself not. Money also held my attention where usually I stray and multitask when viewing movies, but I was sat on the couch telling the ghosts who was screwed. I wanted to know how it ended. The ending was also super satisfying. While I couldn't see myself re-watching this in the near future, I can ultimately in about five to six years just because it's interesting. It was an interesting movie that I feel is worth a shot even if you think you won't enjoy it. There is the chance that you might even learn something too. Who knows?
