Gianna Jun, Simon Yam and Jung-Jae Lee really go all the way here and carry the movie so nicely. Wow! They really have some of the great talents from both the Korean and Hong Kong cinema alike. And what really helps the movie along nicely are the people on the cast list. Director Dong-Hoon Choi have managed to put together a great movie that is entertaining, exciting and thrilling. This is the part that I really like about the storyline, it was kept fresh and constantly on the toes. The story was not predictable and just as you thought you had figured out what was next, the movie took an unforeseen turn and totally throws off the audience. Sure it could be compared to "Oceans Eleven" and with elements of "Mission Impossible" in it, but it would be a shame to do so, because "The Thieves" is unique in its own right. Alliances are forged and broken, and the game of deception runs high, and just what is honor amongst thieves truly worth? I will say that the storyline was compelling and interesting. But things take a turn for the worse and the heist doesn't go as planned. The story is about a group of Korean and Hong Kong thieves who come together for a mutual heist to steal a very expensive diamond. This movie was fantastic in every aspect. Finally I got a chance to watch "The Thieves" ("Dodookdeul"), and the wait was well worth it.
