Unbelievable
Unbelievable. The story of the film is like something out of a picture book — it looks cool on paper, but unrealistic and unconvincing in reality, and in this case, in the movie adaptation. The movie actually mixes a fictional story about a shadow with a family drama about the loss of a child/sister, but the connection between reality and fiction isn’t successful. The beginning was even promising, but as it went on, it became harder and harder to keep the interest. The plot moves slowly, and I wouldn’t say the characters earned that pace by their performances, nor did the film manage to convey real emotion like some better-quality slow-burn movies do. There are elements that contribute to the mystery, but the finale wraps everything up suddenly and strangely without any sense that something meaningful was achieved. Also the CGI elements weren't implemented very good. Maybe the whole fantasy is actually a metaphor for human emotions or something, but I couldn’t figure it out. I’d say: an interesting attempt, but it didn’t work.I watched the film in the cinema with one Korean soldier. We were the only two people in the theater, and at the end of the movie we just looked at each other and commented: “What is this movie?”

A good film to study edits
Using the skills of their respective trades, a shaman and geomancer team up to resolve a problem that has plagued a family for generations. Deftly told through imagery, symbolism, and studied perspective, Exhuma is not so much a story about horror and spirits as it is a consideration of how what is suppressed and left unresolved can damage the present. The main and supporting characters are well constructed and acted, with clear motivations, actions, and consequences that are meaningful and well supported. A bit predictable, but expertly told. Bravo.Was this review helpful to you?

Wang Yibo was amazing in this movie!!
This is a fun and inspiring movie. Wang Yibo gives a natural and heartfelt performance, and his dance scenes are amazing to watch. The chemistry between Wang Yibo and Huang Bo adds warmth and authenticity to the story. The movie is touching, and the teamwork and determination make it enjoyable from start to finish. It's a great movie for anyone who loves dance and uplifting stories.Was this review helpful to you?

It was fun but not mind blowing.
I sadly couldn't find this movie in top quality so I will not judge it based on its quality. It's from 2014 after all. Anyways, I quite liked this movie. It was really fun but I did get bored through the ending of the movie. I loveeeee this losers in love trope and I feel like 'May Who?' really done that right.The movie itself is extremely original, with the plot being about May Nai who has 'super powers'. What I liked the most about the movie is instead of making her a super hero like character, they showed her struggles. She was disappointed in herself multiple times and I love how Pong always cheered her up. Him drawing her to cheer her up was just soooo adorable. I genuinely can't believe it took them that long to realise their feelings.
I feel like there was a lack on the relationship side. Both Pong and May were interested in someone else, but their love for each other was really undeniable. At some point towards the ending of the movie I was actually thinking Pong and May would stay friends and that the movie was about friendship. I have to admit I really enjoyed May and Fame, but not Pong and Mink. May and Fame had obviously returning feelings for each other, meanwhile ever since the beginning it was clear that Mink had no interest in Pong. I was excepting May and Fame to end up together. I have to admit that I didn't trust Fame at first because he seems a bit like a play boy who just tries to play with other people their feelings.,
I really like how they used the combination of 3d art and traditional art. Pong can for real draw extremely good and I love his art style. I also like how he expressed himself a lot through his art. The 3d parts were really fun and not 'weird looking' at all. It felt like I was taken into the story of the drawing itself.
Crazy how much I've seen off the actors without realising. I've seen Punpun Sutatta in a lot of series and I actually am a big fan of Tor Thanapob, he was amazing in spare me your mercy. The director Moo Chayanop also has made amazing movies like the red envelope and Suck Seed. I actually already recognised the style of Suck Seed a bit through the poster, that was also my reason for watching this movie. For the rest, I did not recognise much of the cast, which I normally do with Thai series/movies and I really like getting to know some new actors.
That ending was fun and it feels very open. I mean they do try to kinda make it clear that Pong and May choose each other but you could always think the other way around. Whether they end up together or not, this is an amazing movie on friends > lovers. I really like this. Yes, my review is a bit low but that's probably because the movie is not for my age and it did bore me at some point.

Good...But Fast
This movie was far from a slow-paced filler. Point-on-point action... it feels like you have no time to think about the first plot before the next one is already here. I'm only guessing, but this was probably done due to movie time constraints, theaters, etc.Besides that, a good zombie movie with a cool twist. "Your Bluetooth device has connected."
Summary: A good, fast watch... lots of action, but no tear-bringer or heavy character building. Great cast carrying the scenes. Overall, in the future, please just use the windows... could have ended the movie in 10 minutes.

A Visually Intense Zombie Thriller That Brings Something New
This film makes a debut with lots of expectations since it was created by same director as "Train to Busan," the first Korean zombie movie that wowed the audience around the world.What I really like about "Colony," is how zombies are different than any zombie movies I have ever seen. It shows a wide range of interesting abilities instead of just being "infected" by some sort of virus. There is a decent exposition and a back story. From smell to vision to intelligence, they get creative and stronger as time passes by.
The downside of this film compared to the successor is the lack of a powerful side character who always confronts zombies fearlessly. I am not saying a female protagonist is the issue as she does an excellent job fighting zombies by utilizing her knowledge as a professor in human/animal biology. It is just the antagonist and the zombies are a bit overpowering in this one.
I recommend this movie to all the sci-fi and zombie lovers as it is not only fast-paced, but it is also filled with actions, theories, and most importantly, freaky visuals and sounds.

A simple, well balanced and yet touching and meaningful storyline. Maybe it is true that when you love ones have passed on they probably will become someone or something near you again. Love the delivery and performance by the dad, actresses and dogs in the show. Just so natural and there is some unexplainable connections between the dogs with the female lead. The dogs do really know how to act and come naturally. Go see the BTS also, very interesting interactions and reactions from the dogs.The show has portrayed difficult life decisions,facing the life and death of loved ones and communication with love ones. At different phases of life, one will gradually grow up to learn and better understand the meaning of those difficult decisions.
Seven Tan mentioned it is a very good movie as it has helped and she was able to release her emotions during the acting (the crying scene that was uncontrollable and causing her body to shake). I believed that she has been fronting alot since her mother’s sudden passed on due to car accident some years back and her being wronged by media and public on some events (she has nvr tried to explain herself or want to gain publicity from those events but having a strong front to prove people with her performances). Perhaps, it’s a tipping point for her and glad she has grew up from the pain.
It was also only earlier in 2026 in one of the variety shows that her co-workers asked her on her scar. It was actually an accident (believe it happened during the filming of this movie) which was quite bad back then that her top right lip and flash was dangling. It left some deep scaring and still undergoing treatment till date. Hope things will be better and smoother to Seven and myself for 2026, more good years and performance to come! Keep up your good work!

Too simple
Very simple story with no detailed plotline. The story ends without even feel like the beginning.Acting was okay. But the plotline seem to have missed something and also the story should have extended a bit. Tho it shows cheating and all which i dont liked much but yeah still some detailed should have been shown.The dialogues are average and the plotline seem to have missing out on so many things. I expected it to be more deep and structured but it wasnt. A worth watch but not definitely more then once.Was this review helpful to you?

A Beautiful Reminder to Live in the Present
Yesterday Once More is a simple yet meaningful coming-of-age film that quietly leaves a lasting impression. At first, it seems like a familiar story about an academically perfect student and a carefree boy from a completely different world, but it gradually becomes something much deeper. Rather than focusing on romance alone, the film explores youth, family expectations, academic pressure, dreams, and the uncertainty of growing up.What I appreciated most was how relatable the characters felt. Each of them is struggling with expectations, whether from their families, society, or themselves. The film does a wonderful job of showing the conflict between pursuing your dreams and choosing the safer path that promises stability. It's a reminder that the future isn't fixed and that sometimes taking risks is necessary to truly live the life you want.
The performances were another highlight. Bai Jingting once again delivers a heartfelt and natural performance, making it easy to connect with his character. The chemistry between the leads feels genuine, and their relationship helps each of them grow in believable ways. I only wish some of the supporting characters had been explored further, as they had stories that deserved a little more screen time.
The pacing is a little quick, and there were moments where I wanted the film to slow down and spend more time with its characters. Even so, it never loses sight of its message. The ending isn't the typical fairy-tale conclusion, but it feels hopeful and fitting for the story it wants to tell.
Overall, Yesterday Once More*is a heartfelt and uplifting film about living in the present, appreciating the people around you, and finding the courage to choose your own path. It may be simple, but its message stays with you long after it ends.

So Ji Sub TOP!
The story and photography in the trailer piqued my interest, but I hadn't seen So Ji Sub in action yet... I was glued to the screen until the end, never letting go! Now I'm trying to see all his work because I think he's one of the most versatile actors in Korean cinema. He can switch from comedy to thriller in the blink of an eye and NEVER loses credibility!! A fantastic actor, charming and intriguing. I could watch this film forever and never get tired of it.Was this review helpful to you?
Rock is dangerous
What a strange movie. It has a unique style and atmosphere that hits the viewer almost like a horror film. The dark and distorted visuals serve as both a background and a contrast to the glamorous life of a rock star. On one side, there is darkness and pain; on the other, light and fame.It feels like an experimental film, with many fragmented scenes and close-up shots that add to the already confusing mystery surrounding the instrument that needs repairing and alters one’s perception of reality. I would say this movie symbolically portrays how rock music can take over a person’s soul. Still, I think someone needs to explain to me what I just watched.
For now, I’ll check out some of WOODZ’s music, since he’s the lead actor and the inspiration behind this film.

SILÊNCIO, VESTIDOS DE UNIFORME E MAR
é um filme beeem silenciosotanto que no começo eu achava q ia ser um filme mudo juro
e é um filme de 2003 né
então as coisas que me irritaram eu não vou ignorar (na nota) mas vou relevar um pouco (na resenha)
tipo a protagonista simplesmente demorar demais pra responder ou agir
ou parecer q nem tem adulto em volta delas
enfim eu entendo que é pra construir a vibe + é fruto da época
mas gostei muito que o relacionamento das protagonistas é silenciosamente complicado
elas moram no interior
a primeira pessoa que a kirishima, que é uma menina bem fechada, gosta é uma garota
e essa garota tem um passado conturbado
um aborto + um ex é relacionamento com um homem casado
e é óbvio que isso atrapalha elas
elas tomam decisões idiotas por causa disso e se magoam (mais a endo q a kirishima)
e eu normalmente gosto do jeito que as produções do japão capturaram o cotidiano
sempre parece com o jeito q eu reparo no mundo
e acontece isso aqui
gosto das cenas q a câmera parece os olhos observando
só achei q poderia ser mais dramático a parte que elas brigam
e de novo na verdade o jeiro q aconteceu combina com todo o resto
mas mesmo assim a kirishima guardou tudo aquilo pelo verão todo
acho q a briga dela com a endo poderia ter sido pior
menos silenciosa só nessa parte
e eu acho q eu entendo o final
já q a endo nao tinha ambição nenhuma na vida
o interior não sufocava ela tanto
então nao fazia diferença ela estar lá ou não
pq nao ia estar prendendo ela de nada
e tinha mais motivos pra ela ficar do q ir embora
mesmo q a kirishima fosse embora
pq a kirishima também não deu grandes motivações de vida pra ela
só fez talvez ela acalmar
mas a endo deu uma motivação pra kirishima por isso ela saiu do interior
enfim não cai de amores por ele mas é um bom filme, é interessante👍
obs: o título é a vibe do filme, não falei muito sobre mas quem assistiu sabe que é exatamente isso
