So why are reviewers already saying this movie sucks ? Not even out yet.
All these American animation studios keep proposing "children" (often driven to these movies only due to the abnormal strictness of UK and US film censorships) the same stuff over an over. Yet again anthropomorphic animals, yet again the American silly moralism between good and bad, a plot which does not spark any interest, and also a lackluster animation style. For children and grownups alike, to see good animations go to Japan.
Apparently by reading the comments here and on the 1982 version, not many know the original movie was actually The Thing from Another World 1951. All being based on the 1938 book Who Goes There?.
I was excited for this one due to the gorgeous costumes/set design and diversity, but it's also much more than that! The musical numbers were delightful, especially combined with the costuming.
The premise of magic and wonder stands out to me here, because rather than the traditional fantasy that you'd expect it's the beauty of math and engineering (and with a female main character at that). It was really interesting to see, because math is often depicted as "stuffy" and definitely not creative even if advanced math does need a lot of imagination. Truly made me wish I didn't let go of math when I was younger.
You can really tell a lot of love and effort was put into this movie!
Man likes dogs, shooting guns, and friends. He faces an old enemy, stairs.
The shooting hit rate in the movie is stormtrooper class. :-D

This was actually a lot more interesting than I thought it would be. I enjoyed it enough to not feel it was a waste of time and the jump scares got me good. Also, I love it when the moral of the story is "even if you don't believe in the paranormal, don't be disrespectful about it you dumb b*tch" because that's an important message.
I for one enjoyed it. Thankfully it does deviate a bit from the original and that lends it a unique flavour of its own. The original is a childhood favourite but this one is pretty good in its own right. The visuals are pretty good, the locations are terrific! The movie had a sweet and simple message to convey, which I felt it did so nicely....
This is a great Cary Grant film and truly a classic. Many other films get the distinction of a classic because of the serious themes they address, or because of great acting. And while there is some great acting in this movie, I consider this a classic because it is hilarious in so many clever ways that you just don't see in movies these days. If you're looking for a fun film, you can't go wrong with this one!
Certainly the best Korean "Western" if not the best Asian Western overall, it's a blast to watch. Be sure to watch the original (Korean/DVD) cut instead of the international (Netflix) cut. The international version leaves out a couple of scenes at the end which tell you what happened to some of the main characters.
one of my favorites of all time =)
An excellent film that is an absolute blast to watch.
