Interesting plot, but horrible execution. Could've been a comedic action movie with some dark underlayers, but it just feels like the writers threw together something. Like the pacing and sequence of events are just strange? It just feels off, it doesn't feel like an actual movie for some reason. Only thing I enjyoed about this movie was Yi Kyung's perforamce, but he wasn't in it much.
An hour of the movie feels like an indie movie about a small town then the sudden switch to a disaster movie feels like whiplash. They spent too long on characters without even fleshing them out.
I aboslutely love this webtoon. Jihoon did such a great job in weak hero, he'd be perfect for this role too. It's that unassuming evil type of thing. He's soo good at it.
The plot felt too busy but too slow at the same time. It feels like the writers had a checklist of supernatural rom-com traits so add but it just didn't work. They went back and forth from melodrama to rom-com without either of them fitting that well. They would have so much build up but then the climax was always so boring and pointless. The leads romance made sense, but in a boring way. Even the side characters romance was better, had more chemistry, and more development in less time.
It had a fun plot, but they didn't give enough backstory and it just felt like a college drama more than one that featured a very interesting mythical character. So it's more of a filler drama. 7/10 for me.
I say go and watch my girlfriend is a gumiho instead
Just watched this with my mom last night and it was so fun! I love wacky hong kong movies. They make no sense half the time and that's what makes them great. Also I love Stephen Chow <3
I have zero clue what I just watched, but that was some chaotic fun. I love watching Hong Kong movies and they can be strange, but this is by far the strangest I've ever seen.
Watch it for some talented gymnastics, nonsensical plot, and extremely colorful fashion.
