Okay so I'm not sure if anyone else has heard this buttt basically going into this movie I'd heard it compared to one of my favourite K-movies of all time, 'A Werewolf Boy' which is Song Joong Ki basically proving his genius to us. (God I miss him now that he's in the army :( ) So needless to say I was very excited about Architecture 101, and now I wish I hadn't been. That's not to say I didn't enjoy the movie. I did, it had every aspect of a melodrama I was looking for but something about it struck a strange chord with me and I can't decide whether I like this movie or don't like it. Before this review gets anymore strange...let's just address the main topics :) Story wise - it was actually excellent. The resolution has meaning, but it's not apparent right away. If you find yourself unhappy with the ending, think about why it happened the way it did and you'll understand that this was the only plausible resolution. Acting/Cast - OMG SUZY. lol damn is my bias showing? Yes I'm Suzy-biased :) and I really like Han Ga In. Both of them were flawless but I think Lee Je Hoon really stole the spotlight from them. The innocence he portrayed with his character floored me and I'm still in awe at the way he conveyed his emotions through his expressions *dead* Music - Music...there wasn't really much of it. When there was music in the movie they used it pretty appropriately. Not like other movies where you hear music for no reason and kind of tune it out, no the music here had a definite purpose. Just for that it gets a 10. Every song is there for a reason...and that is the best incorporation of music in a movie I have ever seen. Rewatch...maybe in a few years? Maybe to show my friends? But to make me happy? No. I won't rewatch it. It's not a bad movie, far from it...but it's definitely not something I'd choose to sit down and watch again right now. Overall though, I did really enjoy it and I do suggest you watch it :)it's worth your time.
