movie back up us to simple wishes ,wake up our humanity
In my opinion, the film is very good. As always, the actors perfectly conveyed emotions and feelings to the audience so much so that at the end Seo Bok was really a pity... As they say, if an actor makes u worry and feel, then his acting is real!And also heartbreaking emotions, especially when the film shows that "not a person \ object" in their opinion suddenly begins to experience emotions and understand this world as a person, to experience love, fear, injustice, hatred, to realize that he is already not a real person, the feeling of injustice on the creators is especially high at the same time shown considering how they used him and treated him cruelly, inhumanely, and here you begin to pity "this object" of a non-person, who in the end turns out to be more human than his creators.
Such feelings often appear in films where they create robots or clones or people with superpowers for research and then decide to destroy them because they are no longer needed. Sometimes u start thinking that everyone has a soul, even objects at first glance)
I felt sorry for Seo Bok, it hurt that he understood everything but couldn't do anything about it because he was dependent on injections and he understood it too
He wanted to be useful to someone, to really save his life, so that his suffering in the experiments was not in vain, but not in the way his creators wanted, who were absolutely not bothered by the fact that he might be in pain or that he was eating bad food and whether he was eating at all, they didn't care what he was thinking, he was just a living experiment for them.
In this film there is something to think about and discuss in light of today's events in the world and in everyday life.
For example, that through a film they can also manipulate consciousness, as well as another thing, that more often in a film u will meet humanity and help more than in real life under serious circumstances..
I think this film is more for those who have empathy and can feel others very well, this film shows how cruel people can be in their momentary impulses, as well as the ordinary simple desires of people who are dependent on others not of their own free will, which sometimes can be inaccessible due to the fault of others..
To some extent, this film brings us back to simple human values: to eat noodles, to try something for the first time, to meet the sunset and sunrise at sea, which is eternity in this context, to feel the water, the sea, the sand, which is life.

Cloning, de meaning of being human, ethical ramifications of eternal life & slick genre action
Wen has making artificial life ever been a good idea? u'd think scientists would have learnt dis lesson by now.BUT IT WOULD NOT B IF their creation has de angelic doe-eyed face of actor Park Bo-gum. Let's b honest, if u could make an artificial human wid those good looks, u’d be crazy not 2!Gong & Park make a good match in dis road trip movie & get 2 shine in emotional scenes as well as action sequences.Seobok is an odd hybrid of a movie. Half of it is character drama and philosophical musings about mortality. The other half is high-octane action with gunfights and psychic powers.
VERDICT _ An enjoyable journey & as long as u don’t have too high of an expectation, I think u’ll have a decent time.
De movie had great visuals & effects, & I really enjoyed some of de cinematic shots it had. Certain scenes were beautifully shot & mesmerizing, & some were even frightening @ times as well, in a good way.

Gong Yoo and Park Bo Gum are amazing.I know I lot of people had problems with this movie, but I thought it was incredibly well acted and incredibly sad.
I don't love all the violence but when you get through to the end you understand the pressure that has been building up in Seobok, and the narrowing of his options, and the violence comes out of that.
GY and PBG are two of my favorite actors and their work in this movie is beautiful. You see the subtle changes in their relationship and their growing understanding of each other, so the loss at the end is devastating.
The story is just a vessel to hold the relationship between the two of them. Their discussions about death are given higher stakes because of what they know about themselves. And their perspectives shift because of their relationship.
The only really important supporting character is the "mother" figure. Jang Young Nam doesn't have many scenes, but she conveys the character's intense pain in every moment. This actor never disappoints.
The "bad" guys' behavior isn't justified in the writing, so those characters are boring. But Seobok and Ki Heon are absolutely at the center of this story, and I had no problem focusing on them.
This isn't my usual taste (I like romcoms and sageuks), but because of GY and PBG's performances, this movie will stay with me for a long time.

perfect: Gong Yoo and Bo Gum in a scifi
An emotional ride. It is never the destination in drama, it is the ride to get there. Seobok proves his humanity; the agent assigned to deliver him witnesses that evolution. Glorious, recommended.Bo Gum's semi-androgynous perfection is used here almost uncomfortably. Gong Yoo also fits his role like a glove, so much so that you fotget who he is. Gritty and quick on his feet, that's the action hero in GY's heart.

Ever since they cloned a cow for the first time in reality. In my mind, in the future mankind will try to clone a human being. Whenever I cut my hair I keep the cuttings. I believe this to be true. I don't know about Superman's abilities... but if this world doesn't end by Nuclear war. It may become a reality.

Excelentes actuaciones
Acabo de terminarla, estaba super ansiosa de verla, y más por todo lo que retrasaron el estreno.Me gusto mucho, todavía la estoy digiriendo, asi que después escribo con spoilers.
La historia esta un poco floja, igual me gusto mucho.
Lo que más espectacular, son las actuaciones de estos dos hombres, Gong Yoo y Park Bo Gum, interpretan su rol de manera espectacular, me encantan, creo que sin su actuación no fuera tan buena esta película, pasaría desapercibida, ellos le suben el estatus.
Asi que véanla, es linda y emocional

Independente de modificado, ainda humano.
Eu vou fingir que eu entendi esse filme, não sei se ele ficou muito confuso pra mim ou sei láMas vou deixar de ver filme com o Gong yoo, todo filme é triste com ele parece eu hein
O filme é bom, o seobok foi criado em um laboratório mas ele não era um robô sem sentimentos, ele era humano mesmo mais forte e diferente dos outros humanos e ele foi projetado pra ser uma arma e não queria viver desse jeito, ele entendia o sentido de viver e da morte, de acreditar em algo e ter medo de algo e infelizmente ele fala no fim que não importa o quão medo você tenha e esteja assutado não pode fugir e ele não podia fugir do fim dele. Meio poético? Triste eu diria.
