So I rated this movie so high because I really wasn't expecting to like it, but by the end I was bawling like a baby, and any film that can do that is a good one in my books.

I adore Jang Geun Suk and I was really looking forward to this movie. And I usually try hard not to compare remakes to originals, so that I can better appreciate each one on their own merit. But this movie was an absolute mess.
Sometimes a movie/drama is vastly different from the original source material and I'm glad of it - Paradise Kiss is one example. Didn't like the original story, loved the movie (just my opinion, don't slay me). But You're My Pet is not one of those situations. The manga is awesome. The Jdrama was great, even though it didn't feel complete. The movie? Totally lost sight of the original story and the motivation behind the characters' behavior. It was shallow, trite, and farcical.
I know there's only so much that can be done in the short time given to a movie, and that was part of the problem. If there was going to be a Korean remake of this manga, it should've been a drama, not a movie. I think, given a different writer and director, the same actors could've done a much better job in a drama setting where the story and the characters could've been fleshed out and so much important stuff wouldn't have to be skipped for the sake of time. So I don't blame JGS or Kim Ha Neul, I blame the writer and director and whoever thought it was better to make a movie and not a drama.

At first, main theme of the story might make you remember a French movie series called "The Transporter", but, no need to give a damn about that...'cause, "Quick" is one hell of a movie which'll make you laugh so hard that your mom sitting next room might end up thinking her kid's gone mad (at least, my mom thought so...LOL)!!
And, GOSH! the cast was totally PERFECT for this movie...they made those funny dialogues WAY-TOO-HARD-TO-TAKE-IN without going L-O-L...I mean they were AWESOME...specially when CURSING (and, your little-bit-Korean-language-knowing might add some extra saucing to the fun)!!!
Definitely, it's a movie which you might want to enjoy on a holiday when you've nothing to do and there's some extra lazy time to spare!
So, I say...grab some snakes, go get cozy in front of your PC and have some good laughs watching Lee Min Ki riding a HOT BIKE going nuts while cursing like HELL!!! Anyong!!! ^-^*

Casting: Cha Seung-Won won 2003 Baeksang Arts Awards: Best Actor for this movie. I not need to say more. He just too versatile and has wide range of acting skills.

I remember watching this film in a "Friends night", I wasn't the one who chose it but I appreciated the choice.
2) Storyline/Plot:
Generally speaking,the film's story wasn't original or great but the script writers knew how to get the audience intention.
Positive Points:
*This film is directed to any type of audience since it has the elements that would keep most of viewers attracted.
*Main Genres:
--->Humor: It made this film cool and light plus laughter scenes were so diversified and frequently present especially at the beginning. It's the type of humor that keeps you expecting more, the funny scenes were hilarious especially for those who like comedy because when you don't laugh, you would be smiling.
Even though this genre wasn't present in the middle or near the end but it's considered as highly satisfying.
--->Romance: Since it's a romantic comedy, the romance was fair enough to the film's genre. I wouldn't say it's the most attractive romantic story but it was acceptable enough to consider it as a positive point.
Negative Points:
*I will mention that some situations were badly expressed in a way that would make you think that story lacked something.
*There were some blank moments during the film.
*The story wasn't really that special nor very captivating, it's the humor that gave it charm.
Story: 7/10.
3) Acting/Cast:
*Kang Dong Won:
I am always amazed by this actor's skills, charisma and the way he portrays his roles. Here he was a little different from his other productions but I would say that this film proved his amazing acting skils since he can adjust to any character.
Speaking about the character, I would say that it has the kind of naive personality but it gave me good laughter moments. I wouldn't judge Choi Hee Cheol deeply because its actions were set by the story so I rather praising Kang Dong Won acting.
*Kim Ha Neul:
I am sort of used to her roles, this actress is predictable somehow. Here, it wasn't any different but her way of expressing the character was appreciated. However, I have to admit that her way in portraying the role was a little weird at first then as the film went on everything was set smoothly.
The character is one of those independent females. Ju Yeongju lies and professional pretens made the character appealing and enjoyable most of the time plus it was really convincing.
*Other cast: most of them were acceptable exept Ju Yeongju friends, they were really annoying to watch. I speacially liked the grandmother, she was really funny because of the line that she always say.
*Relationships:
--->Romance: I wouldn't say there was a great chemistry here but it's all due to the storyline.
--->The leads relationship with the family and the village members: it was really cool to watch; it was sort of heartwarming and great to see how everyone treats each other.
Cast: 7/10
Acting: 8.5/10
4) The ending:
It was predictable yet cool.
Then ending: 7/10
5) My impression (How did it affect me):
*I was giggling with my friends almost most of the time, it was fun.
*There weren't a lot of boring moments plus it was entertaining.
*Is this film memorable : If I will keep any memory of it, that would be because of the funny moments that I had while watching this film.
My impression: 8.5/10
6) Overall:
*If you like romantic comedies then you may want to watch this.
*If you would like to laugh then this is for you.
*If you're looking for an entertaining film to pass time with then watch this.
Overall: 7.5/10.

However, if you acknowledge the above, then you are in for a very interesting experimental movie, directed in a wonderful postmodern manner.
There is nothing happening in the movie, as I said, but actually everything is unraveling in a furiously silent manner. What is important to look for are the many symbols and small gestures that compose the hidden story behind the film: the sudden changes that shot small glimpses of the house bathed in light,on a clear sunny day that overlap with the dark, gloomy, rainy house; the open doors from the bright house, that suggest openness, hope and harmony, yet human activity is completely absent, as opposed with the progressive closure of each door in the inhabited house, on a rain stricken day; the opposed motifs of the dog sculpture she received from her husband early in their relationship, which symbolized stability, loyalty, and the cat that crawled into their house, which suggested a free spirit, unattachment, and reinforced by the fact that the cat was very scared and in the process it hurt him, although he was doing his best to tend to it and the strong scene where she seemed to become a part of the darkness while looking out the window and, while she blended into the dark, the cat suddenly appeared, to only disappear again after the woman came out of the shadow, that suggested that the cat was really an avatar for the woman... oh, I could go on, as the movie is really packed with symbols, but then again, I'll let those that chose to watch it to discover things for themselves.
The acting was great, their expressions were very rich and suggestive, the gestures, the pauses were stellar and gave of the right vibe for this movie. He portrayed the perfect image of an emotionally handicapped individual that was unable to express his true feelings, and she was also great at illustrating the character of a strong woman that also needed someone to comfort and show emotion, but that fell into frustration with the man she still loved and had to seek refuge in another relationship.
All in all, I recommend this movie if you are in the right state of mind to fully enjoy a more complex film that is sure to spike your interest and curiosity.

ACTING/CAST:
Kim Seung Woo was no doubt can carry his part well and charismatic. This is the first time i get to see TOP acting so i dont really know his acting range, but what i can say was, his acting in this movie was tip top!
Kwon Sang Woo was really doing good job as well.
And as per usual, not being biased, but Cha Seung won really can act. From Villain to Comedian... his acting range is really wide. He oozes overflowing charisma.
Strongly recommended movie.

I couldn't have wished for a better cast for the quirky characters in this wonderfully written Mitani Koki film. Nishida Toshiyuki was perfect as the 421-year old samurai. Abe Hiroshi was in top form whether he was tap-dancing or lying in a hospital bed. Other standouts for me were the peppy Eri, Nakai Kiichi, Asano Tadanobu & Kohinata Fumiyo.
I felt that the movie was incomplete when it ended. Luckily for me, I continued watching through the credits & the dangling/unfinished feel was set right. Even at 142 min runtime, I'd definitely rewatch this!

The acting was good, the actors seemed really into their roles and I found nothing off.
The music was nice and fit the movie, I actually remember it which is rare.
Overall I found the movie pretty boring, but that may be because it was in school. It drags a little but has interesting and even funny scenes, too. At least my classmates were laughing at times..
It definitely has sad scenes, though. Some things are hard to understand, but I felt with the characters, pitied them somewhat and some things were a little disturbing, too.
If you want to understand buddhism better, this is a movie for you. Otherwise it's not something I'd recommend to watch "just for fun". :)
