I always enjoy HK movies! They always have some serious wire and stunt action! Okay, you add vampires and vampire killers; you have a hit! Add a little comedy and that's where Jackie Chan and his small role comes in. It was really fun to watch. If you are looking for something light and fun, this is it! I really depend on those movie recommends here on mydramalist. Thanks, Catnip, I did enjoy this on a Friday evening.

I enjoyed this movie even though the storyline could have been just a little more tighter. I think I enjoyed watching the main cast, Eugene (Eun Ho) and Ha Suk Jin (Ki Baek) the most. I am a fan of Eugene and as always, her acting is pretty good. This was the first time seeing Ha Suk Jin in a lead and let's just say I concentrated more on his handsome self than his acting. But I only have one thing to say about Kim Soo Mi who plays Ki Baek's Mom, she is hysterical!! Every cuss word is in English and it has to be the first time ever seeing s**t thrown together with Happy, Funky!! It's still a movie worth watching and the ending is cute! Make sure you watch during the credits! I was ROFLMAO!!!!

What could be better to watch four extremely handsome men running a bakery? Of course, that is not the totally story but it is truly an interesting ride with some really interesting characters! I loved them all! KJW? What a surprise! JJH? Amazing! Everyone was great! I loved the story. These four together! I say, let's do a drama together next time!

A very cute but sad love story. We get to see the revolution of love from grade school to adulthood. Its about two people, Ari/Eun Jeong and Jo Kang. Talk about love at first sight. Granted, this does not have the totally happy ending like most people would want and expect; however, if you look at it strictly for the acting and even the story, you can and will appreciate it. This showed the love that a man had for a woman regardless of her health because he simply loved her, pure perfect love. Something we should all hope for in life and a lot of us may never seen in this lifetime. Even though it has a sad ending, Jo Kang ended it with a smile because she was the great love of his life. Cha Seung Woo at his finest! Kang Hye Jung who played Ari, I've only recently seen her in a drama but both did very well!

Not a chance I'd watch this again! I personally changed the description because they forget to tell us this was HORROR!! But overall, I made it through. It is a different story. But I was happy to see Yoo Oh Sung. Has the middle son Han, the troublesome son, he acted well. The other actors playing the other brothers, I was not familiar with them at all. Overall, it was decent but beware, this is scary (at times) but the ending is sweet.

Yes, as usual for TDramas, I skipped an episode. I don't understand why they start out real strong and then towards the last 1/4 of the drama it gets mundane and downright boring. However, I've lost no love for Blue Lan (handsome devil you) not for Joe Chen. I still like them both. Roy Chiu, as usual, was a joy to watch. And why couldn't he have a plausible happy ending. I wasn't buying it! Overall, do I recommend? Probably not because there are some better ones out there

This was a pretty damn good movie! But I've rarely have watched a Sol Kyung Gu movie and NOT been satisfied. This movie had action from the first minute as you were thrown head first into this cat and mouse game that poor, unsuspecting Tae Sik (Sol Kyung Gu) was playing with the voice on the cell phone.

Then to find out that the entire thing was a set up to protect some dumb politician to prevent one man from testifying! The lengths that these people were willing to take: killing innocent people, kidnapping, and most of all framing the whole thing on Tae-Sik was amazing alone. The choreography of the fight and car chase scenes were pretty impressive. The movie moves along pretty quickly to make it a very tightly shot theatrical piece. And let's give a shout out to the police department featured! Smart, intelligent and thorough investigators! It was a nice depiction to see for once!

It's a pretty decent historical based drama. From beginning to end, it held my interest. I admit readily at sometimes in Chinese dramas, especially action ones, the stunts and graphics can be cheesy but looking past that as this was released in 2004, it's pretty much what you would expect from the time. The acting by all the cast was great, especially the actor playing General Qi (sorry, couldn't find him on mydramalist). He did a splendid job. This was pretty much the first time I'd seen any of these actors except for Peter Ho. If you love historical dramas, this is definitely fun to watch and the fight scenes can be brutal at time (just what I like).

This is one of those movies that you may expect a feel good ending but instead, you are left with a "What just happened?" It was definitely a story we have seen before; a guy meets a girl and years later they meet again but the story probably won't turn out the way you want it to. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the acting. Ha Ga In and Uhm Tae Woong as the adult Seo Yeon and Seung Min were great; Bae Suzy and Lee Je Hoon as the younger characters were also good; it really was the story. A story about what happens when there is a misunderstanding. Not going to give anything else away. You have to decide whether or not you want to watch simply for the acting.

Funny as hell! This is one of those rare movies that you can split in half and get two different ones! One being the romance between Lee Bum Soo and Lee Si Young's characters and the other the Hong Gil Dong thief side. When it was funny, it was really funny; when it was serious, the action was freaking fantastic! Have to say that the chemistry between LBS and LSY was great! I had a negative opinion of LBS and romances but this changed my mind! And can I say that LSY is the Queen of Comedy; her character was so over the top funny going from sex starved girl friend to brokenhearted one was funny, funny, funny!!

A nice story about two people with problems in their life and how, as the title states, find solace with each other. In Ku has a mentally challenged brother that he and his mother take care; Hyeran is in debt, inherited from her father after his death. They meet and it's interesting how their relationship starts. It's not a bad story. If you are looking for a super deep love story, this truly is not it but if you are interested in watching a decent story, I recommend it. This story is more about people and how they deal with their problem than a love story.

Every watch a drama and excitedly wait and watch every week but come to the last two episodes and start thinking WTH happened?!! If it was not for the last 2 episodes that were all over the place, this really would have been an excellent drama! The acting was okay. I have to say, I liked the lead male, Kaneko Nobuaki who played Kazama was pretty good; Yamada Yu, pretty as she may been was not as impressive. Sometimes her scenes felt disjointed and not believable. The weekly stories though were fantastic! I just shudder to think some mad man doing mass hypnosis! Scary, huh? But the ending episodes, especially the were not that well written. I was kind of disappointed as most of the JDramas I've watched have been good at wrapping up a drama. If you like crime stories, definitely watch this; if you are looking for something else, skip this!

No, I would never watch this again. Just when it was getting interesting, started watching using iPad app and there are no eng. subs and the ending. the worst! Rushed! Unfortunately, it might be hard to find but I do credit this drama with making me a fan of the Singaporean dramas. But overall, was different from any other. Interesting to watch the psycho siblings. Those two were something else!
