This drama like the summary told us, tell story about Suzuki Shizuka who work as office woman one day hypnotized & start to imagine herself in drama musical, so she dance & sing along. Even the slight music as ring tones or someone singing will make her sing & dance. The day after she's realize no cure for her 'sickness' she go find the man to make it stop, just to realize he disappeared already. So together with Saito Chie they begin their journey to find Ueda Martin.

Saito Chie herself is the employee of Martin that help him fools people. But with Martin, Saito find 'purpose' & pleasure. Saito at first looked like is one very cheerful, friendly & outgoing girl, she's easy to get along & make friends. But with the journey we find the hidden layer. She's insecure & vulnerable girl that try to hide it with her cheerfulness. But she's also in the end proof herself as a good friend for Shizuka.

This movie tell us how sometimes we must let our inner child out & just remembering our childhood dreams & bring the best of ourselves. Really funny to see the diff between the scene in Shizuka head when she dance with the actual scene after her dance. Haha...

One thing that's really confuse me is... What the true purpose of Murakami Ryosuke toward Suzuki Shizuka. He has hidden motive for approaching Shizuka, but unfortunately they never explored it more, so yeah we just never know...

Overall this really one good movie. Really happy to be able to watch this...

Its a good watch if you want a horror comedy that you dont have to think too hard about

First of all, the movie starts off at an okay pace and quickly picks up the mysterious part of the plot when they enter the cave. I won't spoil everything but its a very fast paced sort of story telling in the series of illusions that come into play to deter the group from finding the antidote. I didn't get bored by any of the events, it was very interesting and you couldnt really look away from the situation as you are suddenly thrust into a normal looking place out of no ware and you have to but wonder what is happening. All the mystery scenes being played out gre into an element of horror but there were mild comedic relief here or there to ease tension and it didnt seem too much.

I came into this movie after watching the series that covered up to volume 7. The drama version in my opinion had a really unfocused approach and i was often bored by the lack of events. However, this movie -- i havent watched the Tomb of the Weasel 2021 which should also be relatively the same story plot points covered ( https://mydramalist.com/716295-candle-in-the-tomb-the-weasel-grave ). I watched it without sub because i dont have a subscription for iQiyi.

Bit of a spoiler alert!

----------[I would say the ending was a very interesting reference to the middle scene where they couldnt tell apart who is who anymore. It was a very nice open ended ending I'd say, simply cuz when i was watching the raw I couldnt understand the explanations super well only the colloquial stuff.]------------------

Welcome back to spoiler free!

I didnt pay attenion much to the music, but when the horror and high anticipation scenes come on. The music was able to bring you into the sphere and immerse you in.
For the acting, there's nothing really notable, my only problem was why did they cast a younger looking man into the role of the hunter uncle? It doesnt look too out of place but it bothered me.

I would totally rewatch this, in HD quality and preferably with english subtitles so i can get more out o the analysis scenes Hu Ba yi throws at the audience.

Thanks for listening. This is my first review which is honeslty more of a rant.

Originally a strange Hong Kong film about a fulfilled, partially fulfilled or unfulfilled life. Deliberately (?) melted edge between love, friendship, relationship, sex, nice bodies, a bit of Asian nudity (you mean a huge bunch of hair with a little camp girl), passing the plot slowly and yet not losing its distinct depth, evoking a reality in me as if from a part of my life and the life of many others ... just according to me and my experience, even open-minded gays and straights can understand each other even in bed, and the subtitles, if they were two lines, sometimes flashed by so quickly that I couldn't finish reading. The film will remain in my soul for a long time

Originálně zvláštní hongkongský film o naplněném, částečně naplněném či nenaplněném žítí. Záměrně (?) roztavená hrana mezi láskou, přátelstvím, vztahem, sexem, hezká těla, trochu asijské nahoty (rozuměj obrovský houf chlupů s malým camprlíčkem), ubíhající dějově pomalu a přesto neztrácející svou výraznou hloubku, ve mě vyvolávající reálnost jakoby z části z mého života i života mnohých jiných ... jen dle mě a mých zkušeností si i gay a hetero otevřené mysli mohou rozumět i v posteli a titulky, pokud byly dvouřádkové, se tam někdy tak rychle mihly, že jsem nestačil dočíst. Film zůstane dlouho v mé duš

I'm still wondering what it was actually supposed to be ... for me an almost meaningless short, with the first "jumping on the trampoline" love scene and the reluctance to give the second one at least a kiss. Unfortunately, I have to rate slightly below average, even though it's Taiwan, it didn't give me anything ... and thanks to Nioba for the effort and the translation

Doteď přemýšlím, co to vlastně mělo být ... pro mě téměř nicneříkající kraťas, s první milostnou scénou "skákání po trampolíně" a nechutenstvím dát tomu druhému alespoň pusinku. Bohužel, musím hodnotit mírně podprůměrně, i když je to Taiwan, nic mi to nedalo ... a díky Niobě za snahu a překlad

The film, which became a blockbuster in Japanese cinemas in its time, is really very different, it is a look at the Japanese society of that time and for many viewers, including me, surprising, even though I am familiar with Japanese works. The first two or three scenes on the beach are enough. For me, the best of the evaluation criteria is clearly a story that in many passages overcame the comic component, which disappeared, but sometimes, on the contrary, slipped into farcicality, forced laughter, a brawl ala ragdoll kindergarten. But the positives prevail. Simply Japan ... and again a little different.

Film, který se ve své době stal trhákem v japonských kinech je opravdu hodně jiný, je to pohled na japonskou společnost tehdejší doby a pro mnohého diváka, i pro mě, překvapivý, ač jsem obeznámen s japonskou tvorbou. Stačí první dvě tři scény na pláži. Pro mě je jednoznačně nejlepší z kritérií hodnocení příběh, který přebil v mnohých pasážích komickou složku, která zanikla, ale někdy naopak sklouzla až do fraškovitosti, nucený smích, rvačka ala hadra školka. Převažují ale pozitiva. Prostě Japonsko ... a zase trochu jiné.

Lazy plot, beautiful movie.

The story feels short, but it's to be expected being a movie and not a series.
Cinematography was excellent, and so was the music. I found the pace also very well measured.
I would have loved for the villain to be a bit more humanized. The rest of the characters seem to just be innocent victims of the circumstances. Because of all this I find the plot rather lazy. Nobody goes through character development and all of their actions are very black and white.
I recommend it if you want to take your mind off things and just spend an entertaining evening. Besides, ZeeNuNew kisses are always a plus.

In brief, it is more or less a story around a POW camp in Korea in 1950 and a black American soldier forming a tap dance team to perform.

Some parts are really cheesy whether trying to pull off humour or not. Also, some of the actors were like B or C grade so something about it was kind of a hit and miss because of these noticeable flaws yet the parts that were solid were really really solid.

The main Korean ML was totally awesome as was the character - M. Jackson. The tap dance team were quite cool too as individuals and as a team.

This could have been absolutely brilliant had the English speaking actors been better excluding the guy that acted as M Jackson, also, if it had been directed and produced a bit differently maybe.

Using David Bowie's Modern Love song for the time period wasn't probably the greatest call, but it was indeed a wonderful tribute to him and did go well with the dance scene for it.

This really could have been an A grade film!

A glimpse of hope in darkness

This very short movie follows two high-school girls and the relationship between them is established from the get go, and so is the main conflict. What we see here is nothing new, it's a sad reality of every day no one should go through, but it's rather common, especially for women. I was honestly worried going in, because I know how it often ends, however, this one surprised me.
The acting was very good, chemistry was there and the story itself was heavy, but with a glimpse of hope. It was only about 10 minutes long, but sent me in a roller coaster of emotions -- sadness, anger, concern, happiness...A truly amazing work in such a short time. I know reality is not great, and in GL media it is shown way too often, but this movie left me a smile and a little bit of hope.
I hope to see more from the creators and actresses. I would love to see this as a long movie, but even as a short one, it's an amazing work.

Wasted potential

I felt no emotional connection towards any of the charachters or story due to the fact that throughout the movie we know practically nothing about their past. It's rushed, annoying, way too violent, especially that cabin scene that was so poorely edited and comical.

It had a lot of of potential to create a truely disturbing, interesting and deep story of young adults in the loss of hope and proper for living environment (like ,,never rarely sometimes always'').

That was what i expected for a movie about such an important matters, instead it was poorly written, ridiculous and annoying to the extent that it completely lost me. Her sister deserved so much better, the scene of their dialouges was the only part where my focus lasted. Can't believe that i went through this because of an instagram reel.

I don't recommend wasting time on ,,young adult matters'', instead if you'd like to watch something good with a simillar plot but well written dialoges and scenarios watch ,,never rarely sometimes always''.

Love yall!
sending a lot of kisses and hugs!

film lucu ala super junior

pemilihan cast utamanya menurutku udah pas. kibum, siwon, kangin dan heechul yang saat itu lagi dipush agensi buat ke entertainment emang paling cocok jadi peran utama.

alur ceritanya jujur ga jelas, gimana bisa ada orang yang dalam semalem bisa terkenal luar biasa karena kelemparan tai. lalu kita sebagai penonton diajak nyari tau siapa pelaku pelempar tainya dan siapa korban tai selanjutnya.

heechul si narsistik, siwon si ga ada celah, dan kangin si paling kuat. penggambarannya cocok dan akting mereka juga ga jelek jelek amat buat ukuran idol rookie.

member lain juga punya andil besar bikin filmnya tambah lucu, apalagi si panda gemes.

kibum digambarin jadi anak biasa yang ga menonjol, tapi dia diem-diem punya website buat gosipin tentang wabah pelemparan tai yang bikin korbannya super terkenal.

pas di sekolahnya kejadian ternyata siwon yang jadi korban tapi sempet heran, kok kibum niat banget nyari pelakunya siapa? kok kayak ga percaya siwon jadi korbannya? padahal dia bukan tipe murid yang suka ikut campur.

semua ditutup sama donghae yang jadi korban tai terakhir dan alesan kibum ngelakuin ini semua cuma karena kegabutan dia sebagai siswa sekolah, emang sih kadang kegiatan sekolah yang monoton bikin kita capek dan perlu hal yang seru biar ada obrolan lain sama temen selain pelajaran dan menurut kibum itu hiburan yang seru buat dia karena orangtuanya keliatan cukup strict.

plot twist karena tainya ternyata pake tai panda wkwk, sayang banget leeteuk sama kyuhyun ga bisa ikut syuting karena pemulihan pasca kecelakaan. leeteuk pun cuma bisa nongol bentar pas perform wonder boy sebagai panda.

menurutku super junior punya member-member yang berbakat buat akting, aku sangat nunggu heechul sama yesung buat lebih banyak terjun di dunia akting dan aku juga nunggu kibum buat balik lagi main film/drama.

buat aku film ini menghibur tapi ya cuma buat hiburan aja, ga usah dipikirin alurnya kayak gimana.

IS IT WRONG THAT ALL THIS HEALS MY INNER CHILD?

I love a good story...who doesn't? Throw in bullies getting what they deserve and I'm in.

As someone who was bullied throughout my childhood, this was therapeutic...something in me was at peace watching that POS taking those kicks and punches.

Seriously try watching it...if you're stuck being timid or weak at work or school to keep your job or just in general, WATCH THIS!!! You want to yell at your boss because they're being evil little shits but you can't cause you need the job? WATCH THIS!!!!

You'll heal things you didn't know you had.

I want part 2 already; with another culprit getting it. She's like the clean-up crew fr.

Shin Hye Sun delivered and then some, she's becoming my favourite actress with all her amazing work. I especially loved the braided look.
Lee Jun Yung was also exemplary...I mean we hate him but I'm going to look for more of his work cause his acting is amazing....plus he looks good being all evil and shit.
The supporting characters...esp the victim did a good job too, you could be immersed in their emotions while watching.
All in all, this was an awesome movie...totally worth the hype.

NOTE TO SELF; Korean youths are terrifying, every time I see a bullying scene in a KDrama or KMovie...I want to crawl up and disappear.

Subtle representation

All of us love to suddenly go back to our roots in the midst of the busy life of the city, to live a simple rural life beyond the barriers of modernity. This movie represents exactly that. There is no forced laughter, no exaggerated emotions; only a purity. Such a refreshing watch. Simple story yet so meaningful. And the scenics of rural beauty definitely reminds us our childhood. My most favourite parts are the reciepes and food, it made me crave for all the foods! All in all, this movie is perfect for chilling out and spending some alone time to refresh your mind and eyes!
