Reviews
Just under an hour of absolutely nothing happening
This was on TV in my country (I'm from northern Europe) so I got curious and watched it because there aren't a lot of Asian movies on TV here. It was so boring that it's actually almost impressive. The black and white filming and essentially no music were, uh, interesting choices that did nothing for this movie. In fact they maybe even made it worse.The story goes nowhere, and you learn almost nothing about the characters. Their personalities and goals are pretty much all unknown. I literally just finished this movie like 5 minutes ago and I probably couldn't name any of the characters other than the "main character" Jongho. Though even calling him a main character is kind of reaching in my opinion. There is no real substance in any of the roles.
On top of all this, the dialogue and interactions between the characters feel extremely stiff and awkward. I think this is supposed to be some kind of art film, but I honestly don't see what the writers and directors were going for. The cinematography could have had potential to be very beautiful, but it suffers from the black and white colour scheme, and the relationships between the characters are not in any way deep or meaningful enough to be considered art.
So yeah anyway, it's a no from me, dawg.
So if you're looking for something that is wildly entertaining, this is probably not the movie for you. This movie calls for contemplation and exploration. It's an art film by an auteur director. There is barely any music, it's in black and white and you'll probably be confused at times.
