This movie stole my heart, with this warmth and solace drama of each women that had all kinds of great quirky and some raw emotions. The resilience of each prisoner and the wisdom of helping them to be better and showcasing a side of prison that should be understood and implemented to know that inside there, there is humanity as well. Fascinating movie, it’s bitter-sweetness was to strong to endure.
Wow, wow, wow. What a movie full of wholesome and darling moments each second. Loved everything of it, even more so when the movie managed so well to have a well deserved introduction, development and a sweet, sweet farewell with each character without compromising. Nothing felt left out, a graceful soundtrack that touch the heart strings to feel very much full of hope. Beautiful, beautiful movie.
A beautiful movie with a horror story wrapped into a human, hopeless and lamented disaster that is life and those womens go trough something as this. Help is often offer, but the hard truth lived has corrupted her life view. Adding more damage to the wound, we get to see the downside of choices that hits the core of what made this movie and those who played the characters be very memorable.
Sometimes we get to be so inhumane and think of only us, sometimes we can’t understand the feelings of others until we found ourselves in the same situation or close to something in particular. This movie showcased this dichotomy trough a somewhat very touching subject and more so in the actual world we living right now. This movie will be very polemical for those who have strong views on its subject. The movie started with a great phase, super atmospheric with a great l sense of urgency and an upcoming claustrophobic ascending issue that explored quite in unexpected way. I dint expect this plot to be what it was regarding to , non the less very well phased and incredible chemistry between each actors and actresses exchanges.
This movie was very bombastic with a lot of A-listers giving a fully engrossed action, suspense, thriller and true realistic historical references that were just that. Which was done as backdrop and trough dialogs, making this fictional plot ramifications feel believable to a point. This movie covered all bases for people that like different kinds of topics wrapped into what was two hours of a blockbuster. After watching this movie, one of the things I would loved to see, was the backdrops for those who also partook in screen time as one of the main character who was the only one that trough his point of view the movie shared his storyline. Would have given more to this ensemble cast a from of cohesiveness and attachment engrossing the experience broader. But how long can you stretch more than 125 minutes without being too much of what it already gave. A great movie that for me, dint messed up but missed some opportunities to include more good storytelling. But seems like that was not its main focus.
This movie has some interesting characters with intriguing characteristics complementing each other in this heavy dialog semi-thriller and semi-light comedy about how white collar crime is often seen and handled. Scripted scenes that leaves a sour taste of how some crude dialog humor has been portrayed, falling into a dramatized entreteinment rather than a full thriller. The start of the plot was enough to see how it all developed to the end.
Here is where I found this movie fall into this category exactly like most movies that tends to critique what the movie explore, which is the discomforting part of politics and the history behindit. The core aspect trough the story I loved about this movie was the fact what the titled represented withing this plot, which it is some sort of continuation from the dealings of what happen in 1997 with the default state that Korea back then fall into, which there is a movie based on that story named "Default". Here is when this movie nods to the occurrences happen in 1997. Great deal.
This movie felt like if it was ripped from one of these girls journal, mainly the main protagonist. About how their mundane lives were impacted by the occurrences of their every day life, into this horrific decade they lived. What I liked a lot about this movie is how they dramatized the script, to make it feel as such withing the confines of a normal movie sequence.
Stellar movie the same King’s story in the same decade of 1442 trough the completion of this King’s desire for his country to be fully autonomous from Ming's dynasty which was a decade for this King battle and the worst war when even his own subjects plot against his ruling. The thing that fascinated me the most about this other movie, that it feels a well cohesive continues telling and have the same flow as the previous movie “The King’s Letters” which in that one only focuses on how the King fought internally to keep a secret the opportunity to create a dream that decades later became a reality.
And here is where this movie “Forbidden Dream” feels like a culmination which entangled the same history as a one cohesive thread with a distinct plot showcased with his desire to study the stars and learn trough astronomy. Which if you followed this movie already previously watching “The King’s Letters” one became the most important for his cultural history which was presented in “The King’s Letters”.
Even though this movie dint had the same actors, which the most important actor would be the same one who acted as the King in the previous movie “The King’s Letters” that dint make this movie feel oddly off or incoherent based on that simple different, knowing that it was made from different director and written, the outstanding essence of this King storyline feels unaltered from the other movie which like I say feels like a well continuation from it. Both are a must watch for people that are into history and the cultures.
I like how the movie showcased this crucial history event in Korea that made that nation be and have what it has right now. It’s own language. Thinking about it, even though it was very dramatized with reference that eludes to this history, I can’t imagine the real struggling process not only as a nation but as king and subjects by maintaining a sense of honor and pride to regain a purpose of ownership of life and worth for a nation that was at a brink of loosing perhaps his own essence. Just like what happen again further in time 1940s.
This is one of those unique movies that has encapsulated every little detail of what you know about coming of age stories about love and friendships. Fill with a vivid youthful adventurous storyline that trough time, became a mature representation of the realities most true love stories end up being. Fantastic slice of life.
These legendary historical events continues at outstanding phase, continuesly recapping the story of Yi Sun Shin in this prequel. This film has been an outstanding continuation prequel from this fantastic tale. As to how Yi Sun Shin, who fought for his homeland over and over again having the same core feeling exactly in all aspects from previous movie named “Roaring Currents” gave in all accords.
This romantic contemporary tale, explore a quite few shocking topics that are the realities lived by some or most citizens that take advantage of a social system for good, bad or because there is no other choice but to deal with such situations to obtain the consequential outcome that has been pursued in that way. Here both topics are being explore trough the eyes and mind of a woman's perspective, which feels as her personality is. This movie explored how difficult this unfortunate environments cause a fake love romantic endorsement. While at the same time, expectations are made out of such circumstances and uncertainties of and by life choices. The movie also explore and incredible social and economy issue study with these characters, which affect in a personal and psychological way each of the couples and more the female protagonist when you feel her reaction to a phone call at the end. Where stoic-pragmatic personality affects a prolong life relationship which could be a great experience. With topics such as stagnation, lost in translations and misunderstandings. The backdrop of this movie I found it very interesting as important after watching the movie and understanding the whole picture of what the movie said and where it said it. Which was in Mong Kok, at Golden Plaza; a significant location for the story for its message. Being a great compensator with what the story previously and continuously kept alluding to with its main plot.
This movie became an experience, outstanding to say the least, with a theatrical-like experience where the streets of Heilongjiang province is and have as much of a characteristics and presence by itself as the characters in the movie.
Both sharing equal qualities merging into a great epic contemporary neo-noir with a plot that exposes everything in its time with such elegance, with this dark looming subject in the streets of Heilongjiang province, making you feel like you living in a dystopian novel.
A beautiful tale about country, life and sacrifice for what matters most to natives; which is as important as the bloodline of family. The livelihood of a nation trough language and what it meant back then to those who gave more than enough.
When I saw "Home Sweet Home" I was impressed by it, then went to see what else this director made, came across with this work. As well, I was surpised. Having these sci fi thriller crime themes with an interesting plot enough to captivate the attention elegantly with this sort of shakespearean like plot lines that were enough to evocate the intention made.
Great movie with unique plot about this gangster turned into a politician by the most comical but heartfelt reason that catapulted him to change his lifestyle. With a great deal of action and drama that was enjoyable.
A very solemnly thorough movie, with a somber heavy begging and a breath of fresh air at the end. With a respectful and delicate tell about how being alone could be a benefactor aspect of life, or this silent distressing conflict. When oneself is trapped by this lonesome psychological horror which life and its circumstances become more that should. Likewise how one can take the advantage of it by winning that battle.
This movie was wild to say the least. Not only in the way the characters were portrayed, but how each handled the situation given each circumstances. Even though the screenplay was not that impressive, it was not bad either, surely the acting compensated an ordeal as its subject matter which was a very delicate subject.
One which is as seriously underline quality placing us between with what is proper and just, which both characters portrayed many facets of both dilemmas in the most outrageous ways leaving all sorts of impressions which was an obvious intent because how good both acting was.
This movie has a unique approach to a well know and sad worrying topic as delicate as is, more so when it was present in the way is done. I dint expected to be this moving and so personal with the implementation of its premise, but for me it worked. While things might seem odd and some beat points might feel out of place, like the movie tries to have a comedic factor as well as serious one, it shines when the plot still manage to maintain its focus finalizing a touching story in the way it did.
So fascinating and touching movie, with such honest and humble plot as the amazing introspection of these lives that lived in this small town.
Wow, wow. I love this movie so much, movies like this with a great humane story to be told about with a lot of heart are so amazing. While the movie exposes a deep rooted issue most or all societies/countries have, with people that struggled so much and most of them end up living in the streets with so many stories to tell and never known it is an eye opener to the state affairs and the importance this people tend to fall for society. The importance to invest by really helping people has more value than anything else.
An extraordinary movie, more so than expected. It is an incredible story, based on real events that surely makes you feel emotions and more so because its makes you understand that only you have the power to move forward or stagnate. No human is limited.
The relationship of father and son is the soul of this whole plot, how circumstances it was a endearing transition from what both share with their past and what the present lead them towards that end. Reminded me to another great one called “Zero to Hero”.
Extraordinary movie for sure with a very thrilling plot .One of the things this movie managed to uphold the entire time was the way it presented bit by bit of the story and the finally that really was the perfect entangled bittersweet ending for each of both sides.
This was a great watch to say the least, more so when the movie has a realistic story to tell within its own developed screenplay as a fictional plot by getting to the point of it all. Which is one of the greatest issues Asian countries and their citizens has to deal with when falling under this prey acts against them by being unaware as targeted and the repercussions of this whole ordeal. The movie takes an action and crime genre to unmask and point bluntly the greater picture, and to think about it; an unresolved worldwide dilemma of deceivers using phone calls as tools to scam, which in it of itself is one of the most horrific moments in life one can go trough, knowing how depleted the affected victim falls into, not counting mentally or psychologically this accidents give a sensation of burden on the affected person’s outcome. A movie that has a point to make which did it very clearly.
The movie was quite the heartfelt as things moved forward to a conclusion. Knowing how much the repercussions of her father's accident led a far greater revealing issue in which she had to struggled with in the only best way possible she could, against a world were wolves and sharks prey on the weak. This 113min of run the movie have is the right amount that encapsulated a great and well thought out script with a fine and slow breathing exposition of it all.
Very entertaining and strong movie based on a few subjects on mathematics and the beauty of being interested in that world. Not boring and with a joyful, hopeful and encouraging themes of struggle, acceptance to one's self to determine ones potential and the courage to pursuit that illusion of fulfillment in a world of frogs inside a bucket. Which surpisingly enough is one of the interwoven plots that gave this joyful movie that serious and grounded experience.
Fantastic movie. I liked how the porpuse of what contains with a raw and a clear script, telling one of the most important aspects of these two nations that even though they are close by one land their separated by what hinders them both more.
A great scripted plot starting up in the middle of everything or rather say, at the begging of it all giving how confusing on purpose the plot placed us viewers at current events. And so it goes this mystery action puzzle connection to understand how this character end up where he start at. It was a great watch no doubt about it, because it used a brand new concept that was the “head scratch” a captivated factor trough his process to understand how is that possible with the director’s written plot design.
Wow I really liked this one a lot. Well made heist movie with a great plot, I really liked that it does have a depth to it. With an ensemble of characters with unique personalities and aspirations and what holds it together, is this intriguing complex story which is the surprise of it all and how everyone play their part towards that end.
Enjoyable movie indeed. Above all, I liked the plot and the clear message about the special thing that is having family and taking care of them while they last. Beautiful, indeed beautiful movie.
