Critic Reviews for Seondal: The Man Who Sells The River (Bongyi Kimseondal)

All Critics (1)

It doesn't really push any boundaries, but the characters are fun to watch - Yoo in particular plays Inhong in full on charming-rogue mode, and pulls it off. The plot may involve a swindle, but the film itself delivers a modest return on investment.
