Sseol (2021)

Sex jokes, poop jokes, pee jokes - that's the content you will get.

This is one of the movies that left me wondering why it was made and why did the cast agree to do it. It does nothing to their career, there was no way on the planet they got paid a lot for it, as the budget itself seems limited, and not much probability of it becoming a hit.

You know what the movie is mostly about? 3 people sitting down and talking about the most boring things ever and making awful jokes. Anything even remotely connected to horror happens in the last 15 minutes. I saw no real comedy in it either. It’s just full of nothing.

Sure, the performances were nice and the cast was solid, but what’s the point when the writing had nothing to offer?

Overall, just don’t bother watching. It's juvenile humor and poor storytelling.

Underrated

If you know Quentin Tarantino's work and other older black comedies and genre-blending films from different eras you will dig this. It's highly rewatchable and fun. The atmosphere, the cinematography and the performances are excellent. And you have to pay attention to the dialogues to fully enjoy it. There are no explicit scenes, but the sexual tension between Chani's and Kim So Ra's characters is so thick - I love when actors can do that.

That scene with the dog and the finger in the end reminded me of ''Kiss Kiss Bang Bang'' with Robert Downey Jr.

I found two versions of English subtitles and one of them has all the curse words censored with *** and the characters curse a lot! Censorship is a strange thing to do since they let you know from the beginning that this is 18+ and contains strong language. This can be distracting for some people so look for the good subtitles.
