repetitive and sluggish

In the remake of the Canadian film, six of varying ages and backgrounds find themselves locked and confined in a mysterious cube shaped room. They do not have any ideas where they are and decide to escape. They need to work with one another and decipher the code needed to exit the cube.The movie could be considered as being one of the pioneers of the now-infamous torture porn genre, pre-dating films like Saw and Hostel that have exploited the idea so much with countless sequels, spin-offs, and rip-offs over the years.

No more talking. No more guessing. Don’t even think about nothing that’s not right in front of you. That’s the real challenge — you’ve gotta save yourselves from yourselves....

Tasted like mint - incredibly bitter but a little fresh feels

Wid hidden identities, unexpected connections & childhood friends reunited as a quarrelsome pair, Summer Again combines a lot of tropes dat have been somewhat exhausted, but does "boast an unexpectedly lively cast". I loved de way it was shot in Pingtan Island, Fuzhou. As the production team seems so set on creating a dreamlike, picture-perfect tone that it unfortunately works against them in a lot of scenes.

Chen Heyi, who plays his first lead role in this drama, takes to his character with surprising ease and presents a very comfortable performance. It’s also Ni Kexin’s first time playing female lead in a romance, and she does so with applaudable gumption.The ending song enriched the sweetness through the whole show.

They’ve also surrounded de two leads wid lively characters 4 friends & it sets de mood well in more comical & upbeat group scenes. Any1 lookin 4 an easy watch is much better off watching dis.

Seeing BAI JINGTING grow is de best thing ever !!!

U R My Hero is a 40-epi cdrama dat mixes high-stakes, action-packed situations wid a very sweet first-love romance. I was so eager 2 watch de pairing of Bai Jingting & Ma Sichun as dey are my all time favs. DIS PAIRING WAS JUST FIREEE..... I have known Bai (frm Whirlwind girl) & Sandra (frm Love me if you dare) 4 a long time as of now, they matched extremely well and had great chemistry. Jingting pulled off the as the best CHARISMATIC ML & now I feel much like a mom seeing her son grow.

NOTE : Many said it was so much like DOTS, but it isn't ...it has its own slow burn romance of POLICE +DOCTOR romance!!

P.S Special mention 2 the solid secondary romance ( COMPLETELY ADORED XIA XIA DRESSING STYLE), OST.

Available on Viki and YouTube with English subtitles.

Good Plotting but lacks a bite !!

I would say “Night in Paradise” is quite de misleading title 4 dis film...Wid its Jeju location & an intriguing female & male protagonist, this film adds new dimensions 2 de storied tradition of K-gangster films. 4 all de talking of this film, der isn't a single original line of dialogue. Or a unique mob character. Or a new way of doing a bloody hit scene.

In some sense, I can understand this movie as a return 2 roots & a celebration of noir basics. But 2 many influences seem 2 b fighting 4 de same space these days. De 140-minrunning time isn't earned, wid de “slow-burning” atmospherics largely featuring de mourning man & orphaned girl who meet on de island 4 no reason other dan 2 lend meaning 2 de bodies dat will soon b tortured. De cliche of unlikely love blossoming btw 2 broken souls in an existential setting is so old dat it could pass off as a member of the British Royal Family.

// VERDICT // Der is no “paradise” in this movie, & u can bet der won’t b any 1 awaiting 4 the slaughtered wen all de scores r settled, every1 has gotten wat dey hve coming 2 dem.

Bae suzy getting over her boy in 12 minutes

A young woman falls into despair after a bad breakup, and seeks to make a new start.

Does the synopsis give away that this is a Lancôme advertisement at all? It does not, yet that's purely what it is. I feel tricked.Plus the short's point as it makes up a plot is dubious. The translated title, Live Your Strength, only works as yet another layer of the advertising, so it's best to keep the original: If My Things are at Your Place, We're Not Over. That sums it up to the point of not leaving anything out—other than the "live through Lancôme" twist.

It's petty, if I had to define it in one word.

very nice mini film :) - What’s meant to happen will happen no matter what!!! -

So basically dat guy from the future is her husband, he is dying & he don't want his wife to suffer ..so he decided to time travel back when they were in high school, i.e to the time she met him & as he disguised himself as her son, helps her to be with Seung Jun & he wanted to prevent the teen Ji Woo meeting the teen version of himself…he wanted to change the future as he didn't want her to suffer in the future...

Was it just me or did anyone else ship the “mother” and “son” but then realize it was wrong since they were blood related. But once we found out that that is actually Ji Woo’s husband, yelled SHIPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!! Anyone? Or is it just that my me ??

A highly effective chiller that builds up into raw terror, Nose Nose Nose Eyes!

I got crazy when i got 2 knw dat this is from an existing female criminal known as 'Lady Uhm.' Lady Uhm stabbed the eyes of her family and blinded them in order to get insurance money. This tries to picture the life of the young girl who has such a mother, and asks the audience the following questions. 'What if your mother is a psychopath who harms your family to get insurance money?' "What if you are a ten-year-old girl living under the absolute influence of such a mother?'"

.It's what is implied as much as what is seen that does the damage, and a there's a second layer of horror to be found in the wider scenario and in the social and economic desperation at which it hints

VERDICT - I wished the girl had gotten hold of the uncle and rescue her dad...
