Who
Beautiful and Addicting
The Substitute is a film that is able to move you - Every minute is worth it.I felt in an ecstatic mountain of emotions when I watched the drama, and considering that I don't generally feel that way, you can say that this is very good. To me the film contains a well-developed plot, good performance and a lot of chemistry between the protagonists — I believe there is only one "imperfection", which would be very small SFX mistakes, but they don't disturb the drama experience. If you are looking for something with action, lots of romance and will cause you a roller coaster of emotions, The Substitute is the film for you.

Well done
Dark. Deep. Softly sensual.I think the director of this film caught the root of the vampire genre, if that makes sense. Not distorted, just vampiric and sobrenatural in its own way - A hint of mistery, sensuality, personallity, along with the atmosphere; I really love so much the plot; The mist of Melancholic and sobrenatural go very well together. The protagonists did an amazing job at a acting, oh my god. Just the two other characters could put a little bit more realism into their acting, it felt kinda distant as I watched.
Overall, a great short movie - Perfect for getting in a vampiric mood.

Different in a good way
Eel has some kind of charm that drags you into the story and I can't explain how.Something about this movie is enchanting; I love the acting, the effects, the eerie feeling, the chemistry between the characters - Everything. The only thing that kind left me literally dizzy were some effects, but this doesn't get in the way while you're watching.
I tend to drop movies, dramas, series, with such ease, and I'm not a person that usually gives high rates - But, this time, it deserved every minute that I watched and the high rate is well deserved too. I would risk saying that this movie is kind unusual - But the type of Unusual that draws you in.

The low rating doesn't make sense.
This movie can touch on a issue that many people go trough in a fun yet serious way. Since the first 15 minutes, I was HOOKED. I wish I could find any flaws on this, but I can't.The chemistry, the acting, the characters, the OST, everything was on point. We have two strong yet quirky characters, an plot that was very well thought, loved each shot of the scenes, it's beautiful and well made. I simply don't have words, lol, I really wish Casa Amor existed in real life. I'm not usually into comedy with mature/adult content, but this movie broke any steriotypes that I had - Usually films like this have kinda of a gross humor - but this one is light, is truly funny, and is truly worthy it. Super recommend.

They definitely chose the most interesting and meaninful people to do this show, and I admire this so much. They definitely had chemestry, and their effort shoudn't be forgotten.
I love the production, the crazy ideas, the overall crazyness and fun of this entire show; And it's only composed by woman, and man, they were incredible.
I think I personallt grew along with the members at each episode, and I'm so thankful for each message that the show and members portrayed; It's going to be one of my favorite shows, ever.
A con [Here we go again] is that some parts get very slow and tangled, even boring, but they somehow made up for this with their humor and ideas troughout the show. I felt all their emotions, the pain, the joy, the fun; I think this is a really meaningfull show for the world.
Sister Slam Dunk - Unnies - are going to be always engraved on my heart.

I don't think it gets in the way with the fun in watching though, but it would be a warning for those who don't like it.
I think the only think I don't like is the repetitive music, but it does happen a lot even in new dramas, so we can't help it. If you're looking for somehting intense, it is worth watching.

That was a trip
That was my first 2 hour asian movie watched; Damn.The aesthetic and the acting are glorious; The finale, too. I think I'll have the messages of this movie inside my brain forever, because they are REALLY meaningful. I saw myself falling and feeling the sorrow, pain, sadness and obsession of the characters. The acting was on point! There's various reiews who said everything better than me, but just for the record,this is being my first review after some time cause' that film deserves it. I don't understand people who are critctizing the chracters, since for me the acting is really well done, and the characters have the necessary depth; There' s real emotion behind those scenes.
If you're a sucker for Psychological movies like me, that's the one for you.

Bamboozled
So, I think the scenes and shots of this movie were carefully produced. It didn't seem like a film, it seemed real, and I think it's a hard concept to pull off; I passed the entire time trying to carefully avaliate the scenes and the setting, and actually. I think this is very well edited.There's some parts in which the movie lacked somethings: The acting of some of the characters were kinda obvious and not so realistic. But they are the support roles, so I think it's less bad. The plot twist was kinda obvious, lol. But the ending surprised me a lot.
As the movie passed, I really thought how the plot was amazing; Even having an idea of the plot twist, it was so good and addicting to watch; I liked even the few jumpscares. Loved the atmosphere and the idea. I think it was well put.
I'm kinda still bamboozled with the ending though - I think that when a movie moves you, it shows how good it is.
Definitely recommend.

Hmmm
I'm back, hello-The history is kinda messy in a "I think you cut some important scenes short" way, but super cute though. I wish we had more and the history got clarified enough, it rubbed me just as sismance even though the title makes it seem as if there would be an lesbian love triangle. I don't know what on earth they did with the FPS, but the scenes were making my eyeballs hurt, lol, but it may be just me and may be time to change my glasses. Big ouch energy. This was super cute though, I must admit---Good short film to watch when you want something quick and adorable.

Thrilling.
Silence is a very short film with talking about abuse, and it handled the theme pretty well.would say the acting lacks a bit in some parts, but it doesn't get in the way, it's still a beautiful film.
I like the sensitivity and the way you have to be beware of the details, cause' they say a lot. It has pretty heavysymbolism. It's a silent film, but the actions, the plot speak more well than any words would do. It's hearbreaking, it's touching, and a pretty important discussion we all should have. 100% percent recommend.

Complex and an look into existence
This movie is not for everyone - Nonetheless, it's touching.First, things that can get in the way: Is a very slow burn movie. I can't describe it the way I wish I did, but the closest I can say is the timeline is "random" , you often get caught thinking "What the world is happening here?. The events seem to be happening in a weird timeline. You have to think a lot to understand what the film is trying to pass to you. The most used way of describing it that I saw everywhere -: Weird. It is indeed. But a weird type of weird.
Reading some analysis, I can agree with one thing : This film is a look into existence. Maybe, routine?
I think this film is...Human. Weird to describe it that way, but this film thouches a part of you that you don't even know existed. Myself included.It feels mundane, but in a good way. And it feels heartbreaking. And this is where people like me find their own little moments of happyness.

A Roller Coast of Emotions
Cuddle Weather has a sensible way of touching sensible matters.I got hooked in the story since the first 10 minutes. The characters have some sense of realism, some sense of mystery mixed with pain; This film did well in portraying how we make decisions and how they affect us; How everything can turn easily in a big avalache going down a hill; I could feel their pain. The acting, the feeling, the atmosphere was so strong that I coudn't get my eyes off;
When it comes to the plot, I think it was amazing and detailed; It was a slightly slow burn; Some cons of this film are that it feels kinda of a loop at the middle; The goes and comes of the relashionship started to get a little annoying, some repetitive happenings in the plot were really like...yeah...kinda stuck? I don't know how to explain.
I absolutely love the production and the effects; They did not lack in delievering the atmosphere with the effects; It was really well made and with amazing oroduction and visual FX. It delievered the message well, even with the cons.
It's a film that quickly made it's way on my heart, and I would totallty rewatch it again, it just feels so good. Watch the dark and bright side walking along with the paths of the characters, and get in the mood for some cuddle weather.

That was so good!
This was so good! Even though it's a short, it really draws you in.A lovely drama that contains themes of Poligamy and LGBTQ+ - Great and amazing storyline, amazing acting and production. I loved the ending, cause' it's YOU who chooses the ending, and honestly that was so fun, even though I think some people won't like it. I'm looking foward to see the other movies in "Series" And I have to admit, though the movie has a comedy tone into it, I really learned the "5 lessons in hapinness" - It discusses important themes, and it's genius.

A more technical view on Long Khong
It took me a while to finish Long Khong because the first 2 episodes were like...Hmmm, I had to think about it. I'm glad I continued :)Well, this show got me completely addicted; But I have a few points to note:
First, the acting lacked A LOT on some ways; It seemed as if the actors simply weren't trying hard enough, even though the effort seems to be made in some scenes; The CGI, monsters, and few jumpscares that happened weren't that great. It didn't merge well with the real life scenes, let's say that. At first I thought the amount of gore was unecessary, but as the show kept going, it started making sense and getting creative with it.
The good points of this series is, the plot is amazing. Oh, and the acting of the protagonist is awesome too, I'm so proud of her even not knowing who she is lol. I think is the first time in which I couldn't guess the plot twist, even if I tried hard, and it hit me so bad. It's addicting and at least to me, it is worth it. You can expect emotional rollercoasters with it;
I would rewatch it.

Slow. Just...Slow
Okay, Black had one of the most exciting premises that I've ever seen, but it just coudn't perform it well, and it's one of the first dramas that I'm dropping with a tiny bit of pain in my heart. [So cold, wow!]First, I think this drama desperately tried to make gross scenes to catch attention or cause shock. I watched enough horror movies/dramas to know that you can make it at least interesting. In this drama, it was boring and...just gross, nothing else.
Boi, it was slow. Oh my god. Even when I watched movies who were purposely made to be Slow Burn, I didn't have this feeling of "Okay I get it. I really get it. Can we just go past it?".
I like and dislike the random scenes. Cause' they aren't just for the ramdoness, they are there for a purpose and Black performs it well in that part. I guess that it just makes stressing because it's just ramdoly thrown there and after a very few moments that look like hours, WOW IT FINALLY MAKES SENSE - The thing is, you are left in the blue. And it just becomes boring, It just makes it seem like I'm in an parallel universe in relation to the drama.
The acting is okay. But not like, extraordinary. It's just okay. Sometimes it really looks like people there are trying hard not to fake it. I guess the Grim Reaper did a good job though.
Like I said, the premise is so interesting, and in sometimes you look at some scenes and think "Wow, if it was performed in a good way, it would've looked amazing"
I know that my critics may be kind of harsh, but I really didn't say them for the sake of being mean. I think it's good to look at reviews and look at the pros and cons, good and band comments,. Dont take everything that I said at heart though, it may be an bad experience for me, but maybe not for others, and I apreciate all the work everyone envolved in Black did.
