Can be compared with the movie "[b]Sugar and Spice[/b]".
College Girls turned Hoodlums (well accidentally).
It was a good movie, the message is quite questionable though.
This movie was released at the beginning of world-wide Korean Cinema craze!
[b]RATING: 3/5[/b]

One of my favorite movies by [b]Johnny To[/b].
I love his concepts, and his stories, they are quite unique.
And this movie is one of his bests, another police drama.
