OMG, I wasn't expecting for this movie to be this enjoyable. At first, I just wanted to check it out, but I ended up being engrossed by its craziness, and the games were actually very innovative. It was even funny at times. Breaks my heart they never made part 2 of this movie/manga series. It's very interesting. That one scene in the snow reminded me of the movie Escape Room 2 (2021).
I really like all the creative choices made so far. They still followed the manhwa/webtoon but made sure all the moments and emotions are amplified. That scene for next episode with Hirakawa running against the wind with the train in the background is so breathtaking.
The fact that it's a Japanese movie that lacks all those high-tech props, polish and CGI that we have now but still leaves a strong impression is why it's considered one of those classic movies of the death game genre movies.
Though it was weird for that group of girls to be obsessed about boys in the middle of a death game.
I find it problematic that once she stopped being a housewife, the mum ,she started mothering the whole hospital and all her patients. She somehow couldn't escape the mum tag. As an intelligent woman she deserved better portrayal.
Koreans oppas are infamous for having chat groups and many have been caught before sharing and rating women in these groups with their friends. I think that was his intention, none of them are ever innocent. They are just perverts who don't respect women.
I was just here for the games and the human stories. Maybe it wasn't the most perfect story but your curiosity will keep you watching. Kind of reminded me of the US elections, humans can never agree on whats best for everyone.
For a legitimately ambitious actor, it is essential to accept new challenges in order not to remain stuck in a…
The children will be genetically beautiful, have you seen how his father,mother and sister and other members of the family without plastic surgery look. (lol) Let's say maybe the kids will be beautiful because with genetics you never know.
For him, it's partly genetics. If you look at screen shots of Reborn Rich, he didn't have wrinkles then either.…
Do you mean the same Reborn Rich where people complained about the excessive filter meant to make him look younger. Without make-up he looks like Voldemort.
Ep 1 was fantastic but I do wonder what drug she was prescribed to take on a case by case basis for the panic…
She felt embarrassed when they mentioned that that killer on TV was seeing a "shrink",plus how she thought the other Dr who wasn't a psychiatrists was better. Even the whole talk by the Dr about US vs Japan mental health highlights how their society is afraid/embarrassed to talk about mental health. Hiding her bag from her mother-in-law.
....I don't understand one thing; why was it necessary for H and M to break up? It's a bit like Hurikawa used…
He felt like he was holding him back, was not good enough and was standing in the way of his dreams. He self loothes so, doesn't feel confident. Remember he is a bully, broken home, doesn't study etc. (explored better in the manhwa/webtoon, in the drama they make him palatable but he is a delinquent. I'm not saying delinquents are bad people but from pov of author)
How is the drama so far? Enjoying it? I'm an Elvis fan and I'm wondering if it shld be on my watchlist. Just found…
Thank You. That's awesome, I will definitely watch it out now. I loved Fake it Till You Make It, very different from the typical romance cdramas. The story was mature and so well written.
Feel like I watched another drama than everyone else, taste is subjective but I thought this was awful.
Be careful of being dragged here. It's open season for those that don't agree that it's a "masterpiece". You can check my review, I also didn't think it was all that.
I think the space and time simply functions different in this afterlife world, so common sense and real life rules…
The biggest problem is we don't really know the rules of this world/Light Shop. There seems to be different rules applied to different people. So not all explanations work, the way people think they work.
If it was clear from the start how the rules around the Light Shop, The bulbs work it would be easy for most people to work it out and understand the ending.
It’s so funny that some people quit after EP4 because they didn’t understand what’s going on, I feel bad…
Well I watched all of and I don't exactly consider it a masterpiece. In fact I only stuck around because it was 8 episodes.
It should be okay for people to drop dramas if they feel like it and not be shamed for it.
it’s often a matter of personal taste, patience, or expectations. The series introduced many layers or cryptic elements without clear resolutions early on, it leads to frustration and disengagement. Not every viewer enjoys stories that demand close attention, delayed payoff, or deep interpretation.
People might quit because they seek immediate clarity or emotional connection with the plot or characters, and if that isn't established early enough for them, they lose interest.
While others see this as an artistic masterpiece, for some, the series might not align with their viewing preferences, and that's okay—art resonates differently with everyone.

It felt more violent with the guns. I would have loved to see more torture in ways of excruciating games.
Remember the movie :Cube
But that's how media often portrays men. There are portrayed as incompetent.
