Palme d'Or of 2010 Cannes Film Festival

The Story is BIG AHH? I can't understand it and I don't know what's happening so this Review is basically non-sense.

Uncle Boonmee have some health problems. On his last meal he meets his ghost wife who said that Heaven is overrated and his long lost son in weird gorilla costume that looks so fake with Red eyes. That's the only part that I understand other than that this movie is moving slow,boring and draggy.
All of the Cast are acting stiff.

Overall the show is weird and not that amazing but for some they found it beautiful. Sorry I failed to find the special of this Award winning Movie. If you are smart enough I will recommend it Lol

I don't know why the most people doesn't like this movie. But in my opinion; I have been so excited to watch it. I think the love between the male main lead and the female main lead wasn't pure but it still a "love". We can judge the feelings of others only because we don't agree with there ways to express them. The 18+ scene; even it disgusting me a little; but still so hot and you can feel the love in those scene; it's so realistic. The ending is a tragedy for me; the male lead doesn't forget his love to the last second in his life though the female lead gave up on him and moved on with her life.

Riveting

What a brilliant movie from an excellent cast. From the first scene to the last I was enthralled by a story that I just had to keep watching. Roy Chiu is a brilliant actor and once again has put in an impeccable performance. The story was well written and the cast did justice to their characters and the emotional roller coaster that they seemed to ride on an almost daily basis. Personally I found this movie one that I would recommend to anyone who likes their movies with a bit more grit and realism. Yes the romance was heartfelt and the chemistry stunning but you wouldn't expect anything less from actors who have spent many years honing their craft. Well worth watching 10/10

Surprising & unexpected

I looked forward to this movie ever since the trailer came out. It has such an interesting plot line which is sweet and light. I would say that it was a bit predictable but some of my predictions were wrong which made the movie more engaging.
I could understand some people’s hesitancy to watch a step-sibling love story but the ones I’ve seen are heartwarming and comedic.
*spoiler but I have questions about a particular scene: flashback- Minato comes home to see a girl leave her brother’s room which prompts her to check on him. This reveals that Toru’s clothes are on the floor while he is sitting on his bed under his blanket. This indicates a possible love scene. But, I wanted some clarification about this scene since we learn that Toru has loved Minato ever since they first met as kids and so I wonder if he went through with it or not to distance himself from Minato. (Let me know if they explain in the manga!)
I give this movie a 8.5/10 because I would’ve like to see more authentic, romantic scenes between Toru and Minato (not only Mina). The FL acting was on point and provided a naive and comedic character. The ML acting was sufficient where he conveyed a lot of emotions.

Didn't liked the ending!!

I recommend you to watch this movie. After reading everyone's review don't get confused it's actually a good movie.
I learned, this life is all about misunderstanding.
Zhang Yang ruined everyone's life just be cause of misunderstanding.
Acting/Cast was no joke they portrayed it really well.
The plot wasn't predictable. It is bittersweet story
I didn't liked the end bcoz Zhang Yang fucked over Xu Yi's life (Due to which her mother died), Ba La's life (Due to which she died), and physically abused Ba La, cheated on his ex, and then got a happy ending.
I would actually say Li Er done the good job until end. She didn't betrayed her dead friend (Ba La). Supported Xu Yi until end

THIS MOVIE IS BETTER THAN THE RATINGS GIVE IT CREDIT FOR!♡

Started put sooo promising! The build up was phenomenal as well. I loved all the actors and how great they acted but once it started getting close to the end, it just got extremely boring.

It had so much promise from the start that had it had the ending it deserved, could have made people sleep with their lights on. But sadly. The ending was weak and not to mention, confusing. I don't understand how this movie could be so great and have a solid clear story.... only for it to end like even THEY didn't know how to end it. I feel like they threw stuff together and called it a ending.

I wish it had ended better.

A less popular perspective on love and marriage.

This was a very nice way to close off their story. The direction was a total glow up from the 1st part.

The pain of Toey was kept evident until the very end. This must have been stressful for the actor to pull off, but did soooooo much to accurately portray how trapped he was with all that emotional baggage. 4 years of being stuck and emotionally stunted is no joke.

The entire cast is amazing. The scenery is breathtaking.

I wish the last 10mins of the film wasn't so rushed. Seemed as if they suddenly realized it's the last day of shooting and had to get a whole life packed into 10mins.

Very interesting and well-made, but not perfect

I just finished watching the movie and I have a few thoughts about it. What is most interesting to me about this movie is the main character Kyoichi. He is VERY unpredictable and it is a puzzle to piece together what he is thinking. There were multiple times in the movie that i was thinking to myself "What in the world does he want?".

Small SPOILER as examples: Kyoichi said he could never choose Wataru as he is a man, then later that same night he had sxx with him. Later on, Kyoichi got together with a girl, but went to a gay bar. Another time was when Kyoichi told Wataru he did not need him anymore, then had sxx with him again... such a rollercoaster of a movie.

The other main character Wataru is interesting, seemingly laid-back yet extremely obsessive. But his thoughts and feelings are more simple than Kyoichi. I highly enjoyed the acting of all actors, all of the characters, including the women, were believable and real.

The story itself is interesting, but very vague and many things are implied, not stated. This can be seen as simply an artistic choice, and the movie is very interesting because of it, but the story is lacking. It can be summed up as: confused bisexual likes to sleep around until he rediscovers his high school friend with whom he has rather poor communication with. The movie is just filled with toxic behavior and relationships, something that happens in reality but not enjoyable to see in a movie.

I am somewhat stumped with this movie because I do not idolize it. The relationships in this movie are very toxic, so rewatching it would feel disrespectful to my own happiness. While we all know some relationships in movies and dramas are idolized and fiction, these are not realistic necessarily; just toxic.

Small sidenote, the movie did not have any music that I remembered, it fit the movie a lot but I do enjoy music in films. Since it fit the movie I gave it a high score. Overall, I'm unsure if I am glad that I watched it. It's definitely interesting, but if you have other more highly rated things to watch first, watch this later.

A macabre love story

A macabre love story that will plunge your senses into the dark depths of bewilderment. Two violent men, on the opposite sides of the law, love a woman who has never felt the emotions of love. Which one loves her more? Which one will prevail? To find out, watch this exciting tale of love and death.

As usual, Jun Ji Hyun is outstanding in portraying Hye Yeong, the young, innocent artist who wants to experience love. The challenges of this character were way above the norm. Expressing yourself without speaking is a talent, and Ji Hyun has mastered every challenge she’s ever faced.

The two MLs played their part to perfection. Try to decide which one she should be with as you watch. Even after watching it I’m not sure I made the right choice.

This drama is also a lesson on not listening to your coworkers. The depth of stupidity for the plan they hatch out, will boggle your mind.

Don't think about it too much, just watch it!

"The lady improper" is about the reality of married life and the psychological problems of the woman who is afraid of sexual contact. Because of that, her husband decided to divorce, so the main character Siu Man is trying to do her best not to lose her husband. But everything goes bad and her life is getting harder.
After divorce, Siu Man is in charge of her father's restaurant where she meets firstly a stranger but then he gets a very close person to her.

I'll try not to make any spoilers here, so if anyone needs recommendations for this movie I'll write my opinion about it.
Firstly, the movie is really important and shows us how hard can be relationships between a man and a woman who aren't personally close to each other, can't understand their feelings, and the cause of the divorce frequently is the facts that I already mentioned. The film director wants to show us what kind of significance has the sexual connection between married people. I think this is one of the most bearing things.
Secondly, what kind of interrelation should a man show a woman to make her trust in him and help her not to accompany fears and get her psychological state get better. There appears a man called Chia Hao who is carefully trying to become good with Siu Man. He knew she is mean and endeavors to get closer.
I think Chia Hao is one of the best characters in the movies that I ever saw. He is tenderhearted and respectful to all the emotions that Siu Man incurs. In my opinion, this is the real kind of good dependence that man can show woman. For her own, Siu Man gets addicted to good behavior and tries to put up with this kind of novelty in her life.

Finally, I think this movie is efficient to watch and I recommend it to you.

The story became somewhat predictable, where people meet, get stuck together due to unfortunate circumstances, then eventually fall for one another. All the guy had to do was call his mom, and the whole story would've been different. The plot/basis of the story is similar to other works that have been done before, so it lacks originality.

Compared to the dramas and their length, theres not enough time for character development.

Its a nice movie to watch, personally I prefer to see Dilraba's work in dramas where she can develop her character and shine.

This movie made my so gosh damn disgusted that I couldn't even finish it. The moment he saw her and had that "look", I just knew it was about to be hell. I don't know what I was expecting, but it sure in hell wasn't THAT.

I literally feel sick to my stomach even writing this and remembering the parts I did watch. How. Literally how do you smile in a woman's face knowing you are fucking her husband? How do you look your husband in the face? How in the HELL do you go all out for another woman while trying for a baby with your wife? How do you keep living life like nothing is wrong when you are sleeping with another woman? I don't fucking understand cheating. It pisses me off to no ends. If you are THAT unhappy, then leave! Why in the hell do you get to ruin not just your life or the one you're cheating with, why must you ruin your S/O's life and make them miserable? Cheaters are fucking mental. I said what I said.

My heart breaks for his wife. Knowing she was doing all she could as a wife and doing all she could to have a baby. I'm angry FOR her.

Mind you, I'm speaking of the characters here. Not the actors. If a actor makes you love/hate/whatever then that just means they're doing an amazing job. So huge props to the actors. It's why they're the only things rated a 10.

But damn I couldn't even get into the actual storyline because the affair crap just chapped my ass and kept me beyond pissed off. I wanted to put my foot through the screen. lol

This movie was so short but full of so much promise!
It started off kind of dodgy though and the talk of the mom's chest kinds... I have no words for that. That was just weird and, bruh... why? Just why put that in there. Lol
other that that, the storyline was so sweet and I would really love to see this be turned into a series or longer movie! But hopefully without the musical numbers. Those were so cringey. Lol I'm sorry.

I really want to know the end of this. I feel like it ended on a cliffhanger. I know it didn't and I know it ended happy but I want to know how the mom reacted. I want to know about the other mom. Did she come to terms and everyone be fine? Did they part ways? I just have a lot of questions. Lol
It's weird. Usually when movies/shows end with a lot of questions and awkward moments, I tend to not like it... but their chemistry was just so cute together!
