Seo Bok (2021)

Independente de modificado, ainda humano.

Eu vou fingir que eu entendi esse filme, não sei se ele ficou muito confuso pra mim ou sei lá
Mas vou deixar de ver filme com o Gong yoo, todo filme é triste com ele parece eu hein
O filme é bom, o seobok foi criado em um laboratório mas ele não era um robô sem sentimentos, ele era humano mesmo mais forte e diferente dos outros humanos e ele foi projetado pra ser uma arma e não queria viver desse jeito, ele entendia o sentido de viver e da morte, de acreditar em algo e ter medo de algo e infelizmente ele fala no fim que não importa o quão medo você tenha e esteja assutado não pode fugir e ele não podia fugir do fim dele. Meio poético? Triste eu diria.

Mankind's greed has no limits....

I've been anticipating this movie, for quite a while now and I have to say the wait was worth it.

If you're one to get easily emotional, then get ready to grab your tissue box, because BoGum's doe eyes will make you cry and feel for his character, Seobok, who amid everything was still innocent and yet treated so unkindly by humans, through all his life. To never know kindness, love or trust, and see himself as nothing but a specimen with a purpose.

It truly depicts the lack of humanity when it comes to study and use animals for such, also the greed of those who fear death while seeking for a way to prolong their petty lives.

"It scare me to think of dying, but living forever is scary too."

Kiheon and Seobok both share something in common here, they both fear the unknown that lies in dying, and yet they are also afraid of living.

"What should I believe to not be scared?"

The symbolic value and moral grounds this movie works with are deeper than one can assume, and mainly questioned by the two main characters, along their journey, were their fears and doubts are exposed.

"Do you think dying... is really like sleeping?"
"Maybe."
"Then how come people aren't afraid to fall asleep? It's like dying for a while."

For some it might be the typical collaboration between Korean/American plot with the whole experiment and survival, however it's GongYoo and BoGum's acting that takes the prize.
Special effects too in a way when it comes to production.
The OST is nothing out of the ordinary for me, although quite right into the emotional scenes.

Not going to lie, it's quite an emotional ride.
The message in plot is more than it seems.
Its all about acceptance and resilience.
And knowing what's wrong and right.

"It's beautiful."
"What is?"
"To be alive."
