If u r not into anime than u might like this

So zom100 has an anime too which is still ongoing. And if I compare the anime with this, anime is better. So firstly, the casting is good. They did a good job in finding the cast but the dialogue delivery was a bit weak. So japanese movies and dramas r known for their story more than their acting skills. Acting is still a weak point for japanese entertainment which is getting better slowly. So this movie too had those bad acting moments.
Talking about the story, so as I said the anime is going on too so that is more true to the manga. But the movie is somewhat a vague representation of manga. The movie is not completely based off the manga but only some specific scenes have been taken and patched together. Well I m not saying the movie should have been an exact copy of the manga but I m just pointing out the details.
Next the CG is hilarious ? I mean if u have seen some CG japanese movie or live actions u would know how badly it is done. So I would not talk about the CG.

So coming to conclusion, I would say u can watch it but it's just a pass time. U shouldn't be expecting something out of the world story before watching this. Re-watch value is 2, just bcuz I'm being generous.

Overall, a disappointing movie with good cast but bad direction.

Good show but ending could've been better.

I won't dissect whole drama so no deep dive. All I want to throw light on is, the ending epi.
Everything was going so fine and great but just that ending epi was a bit unnecessary and unsatisfying. This is just my thought but if they had not killed Do Jun, and showed that he took over sooyang and got married and lived a life happily, that would've been enough. I mean, I don't think so viewers were even looking for a closure for Yoon Hyun Woo's death. People were already satisfied with how he got reincarnated and became more powerful.
But idk what came into the story writer's mind that he chose a vague ending.
It's not like I am in the position to judge someone's work but it's just a viewer's perspective.
Well, it is fine. I've watched so many kdramas and a lot of them (including the good ones) suffer a terrible ending.

Also, it is pretty obvious that there will no s2, so to even think about that is futile.

Just bcuz it's not a complete copy, doesn't mean it's good

So this is a good example of why u shouldn't trust articles on internet recommending u movies, especially horror. But I did. I am a big horror fan nd for me no horror movie is small or big. As long as it can give me chills and vanish my night sleep, I will give it a good rating. But this one was a bummer. From the beginning till the end, the movie proves itself unworthy.
The only thing they did was not copying the Ringu completely but that doesn't give them a pass for creating garbage. They literally put some stupid music whenever u get a call after watching tape, like wtf. The main concept of ringu was that creepy voice telling u, u gonna die after 7 days. But the korean ver. screwed it.
The OG and the American ver. focuses on the main female's kid too, but korean ver. literally cut off the kid's part completely like the kid was not meant to be the part of movie bcuz she's minor ?
The main character or the woman was an idiot. She literally visits the doctor or morgue doctor whatever to ask some questions but the end up taking his help for no reason. Like there was no connection developed between the two characters to contact each other.

The TV ghost was hilarious ? Like literally insulting trans people with story. The guy who was making out with her found out she's a trans and killed her, like wtf. At least provide a better reason.

Overall, I would say do not waste ur time watching this garbage. The whole vibe of movie is boring and slow. They just created a distinct representation of OG but didn't work on the story meticulously.

S1 >>>> S2.

I totally understand why would some people give this season a perfect 10 even though this season disappointed a bit. If u act based on ur sentiments then obviously u would give every damn drama a freaking 10 ??.
But as a veteran I m quite serious about stories nd stuff and tbh, this season the story screwed a bit.
Firstly, how in the hell u can kill the most important character of the drama.
2. Adding unnecessary love triangles just bcuz u wanted viewers to literally beg for the actual love relationship.
There were other things but these 2 were the main ones.
Now coming to the relationship thing. I believe it all started to feel sh*t from S1 when they tried to shove dojin nd soel relationship in our brains. It was pretty obvious who's going to be with soel but still choosing the BFF to be the lover was a bit too much. Then in s2, deluding viewers with random guys with Soel was again pretty bad. It felt the writers were so desperate to create a love triangle and make Jin jealous af.

Story wise, it was just as S1 no big change. But I would say, if u really want to make perfect s2 then at least try to be the tip of Taxi Driver s2. Cuz that drama was a complete blast with its s2.

There were definitely some good things happened in the s2 though. But I would rather want people to check that out on their own than mentioning them here ?

Thank God I didn't drop it

So when I first watched it on its release day on Disney+, honestly, I dropped it just after 10 mins or so. I thought the story was a bit stupid with weak suspense. But, I watched it again, after the season ended. So can tell I had no interest in it. But God knows what really happened and I started the show once again from the beginning. And omg, I couldn't believe myself. I have this rule called "never watch what u dropped" and most of the time I follow it but this show made me break that rule cuz I loved it.
The suspense, thriller, story and ending was fabulous.
They did a good job in hiding the main culprit till the very end. The mystery plot was well constructed. Scary parts r minimal with hardly anything scaring u but still the ghost plot was well written.
I m so glad that I watched this show again.

Overall, a must watch show

A great idea with weak storyline

This was going all good in the beginning with the mother dying , the father grieving and the daughter fighting for her land. But then the whole super power concept got shoved right into our mouths with no clear explanation, but I digress.
I just cannot believe how easily the daughter forgot her mother literally got killed by some people right in front of her. Like, u r fighting for the restaurant nd all but how could someone not think of revenge at that point. Just one funeral and everyone's gathering for freaking land protection meeting. WTF
The father's involvement was rather unhelpful in my view. He could've consoled his daughter but instead was trying to bring her with him in that shabby place. I digress tho. But then again, after learning his wife got killed, the father still doesn't use his powers for revenge, HOW??
I know I m getting desperate for the revenge plot but believe me, revenge was impending but yet the movie doesn't provide that. The mother literally be bowling her eyes out cuz her family not even filing a complaint for her murder.

If I talk about the whole superpower thingy, it was irrelevant. Just bcuz u added superpower doesn't mean anything happens after that would be understandable. U need an emotional story to back it up.

The characters were written vaguely. With the lady boss being the most hilarious one. She literally was shown for the joke.
And the police.??? Literally WTF. Who in the hell sends a whole two building worth police force a handful of common people. Like, who even gave the order for that. It was a complete joke.

In the end I would say, watch it at ur own risk. The movie will compel u to skip faster and faster to the end. So watch it only if u r out of ideas about what to watch.
