This is the third film in the series, following THE OUTLAWS and THE ROUNDUP, and while it's the least of the three, I still found myself thoroughly enjoying it. It's a film that unashamedly plays to formula in the story of a new wave of drugs flooding the market while our cop heroes tackle the gangs running them. The pacing is super-fast and Ma Dong-seok is a wonderfully deadpan hero who hits hard in both the comedy and the action stakes. There are lots of characters, lots of humour and an absolute ton of hard-hitting action, and if the fight choreography is a slight step down compared to what came before, it's a very minor fault. I can't wait for part four!
