Absolutely the worst movie.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
How are movies rated? By way of cinematography? By how the characters act? By how wonderful the CGI are? By how real the movie is? Or by how much the producer spent in the movie?I do not really care for all of the above.. For me, I rate a movie 10 if I felt the desire to watch it again after a week. If I selflessly share it with others or brag about how good it was or feel proud when I hear somebody else praise it..Those are my parameters.I wouldn't have mind if you didn't care how a rated this movie or how I reviewed it if I only wanted it for myself. But I really wanted others to watch it. Watch it especially with their daughter if they have one. I promise you, this movie will make you laugh so hard but in the end it will make you cry so much..One thing good about movies is, they can make make you laugh and you'll love them, they can make you cry but you'll still love them nonetheless:-) This movie is all about that.I advise you .. DON'T JUST WATCH IT!.. WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN...
I'm deeply sorry for disliking your favourite movie.But damn, that was a huge calculated load of rubbish. Take a super cute, good looking girl that makes a good cry face, an innocent convicted and a compulsive tear jerker story - voilà: standard dull korean drama. It's even worse than that. There weren't plot holes, the whole movie itself is a plot hole. First: The extremely incompetent and stupid court and (of course *yawn*) corrupted police work that made me want to bump my head on the table. Apparently constables in Korea lack brain or are just evil. Maybe both. Second: Somehow the entire jail was filled with dinky altruists that love and sacrifice themselves for each other. How sappy is that?! Third: The standard happy ending. Love, peace, harmony and everything is hunky-dory... Seriously, what happened to the Korean Cinema? So many monotonous K-Dramas. That's neither touching nor beautiful but terrible and boring fast food cinema. Hopefully Park Chan-wook et al. can rescue the sinking ship.
This is perfect for the upcoming Father's Day. The story is about the love of the daughter to her mentally challenged father. This is what we call the unconditional love. The movie will let you laugh, cry and realize the reality in our society. Imprisonment and sentencing death to innocent man is very common especially those who are poor and who cannot afford are the main victims of these. Heart melting and tear dropping movie. Two thumbs up for the good actors (especially to Mr.Ryu Seung-Ryong and Ms. Kal So-won, producers and the director.
This movie was corny, with a few pieces of fairly unbelievable plot etc etc. But worth watching because it for some reason I can't put my finger on, really gets to you.I watched it at a Korean film festival in Sydney. Because the lass wanted me to join her. Expected nothing, then wham, I got to cry a bit, very nice experience.I don't cry often during movies. When I do, it's getting a little bit of a blurry eye, not having tears running down my face. Come to think of it, I'm 40, the last time I remember crying was when the family dog died over 15 years ago.For some jolly reason, I cried during this movie. Tears running down face crying. I think it's worth watching just for that reason alone.Take your lass with you and watch this, your lack of tears when the daughter died in downton abbey etc etc will be forgotten, and when accused of being stone hearted, you can point back to this movie....
