Clever use of time travel
This is a beautiful and sad love story.The ML puts his love ahead of his own future.
Through a magical watch he is given the chance to change the future to help the FL fulfill her destiny.
In the times they are together as a couple their love shines out.
The time travel has unexpected consequences and he continues to love and support her from a distance. His rapid ageing is done really well.
I kept wanting a fairy tale ending and we are offered this but it is not the truth. At the end there is a sad redemption and throughout the story we are given glimpses via the diary he keeps.

Satisfied my need for cliché and dramatic rom-coms
The whole premise of this movie is cliché and predictable. If I think about it again, it’s 17 Again and Christmas Carol combined. I love love love dramatic rom-coms and the fact that it is set on Christmas makes it a whole lot better!Lee Min Jung is so preeeetty?! I actually planned on watching this movie months ago after seeing that Park Soyi and Kim Joon would act together! Kwon Sang Woo and Oh Jung Se is a unpredictably perfect pair!
Overall, it was a very nice watch seeing that I was able to finish it in 2 hours on my plane ride to Sydney! I would definitely rewatch this comfort movie ?

Finding someone to love you when you don't even know yourself
Momose was the best thing to happen to Yashiro. This movie shows how difficult it is to accept when we are different from others and how important it is to have someone eho understands and accept you before you accept yourself. Momo showed Yashiro that he is not wierd or wrong to choose be something other than what society tells him to be. It doesn't matter when he dresses as a guy or a girl, Momo likes him in both his avatar. But he encourages Yashiro to accept himself the way he likes to be and not worry about what others thinks.Now, yes Momo can be a bit aggressive, but he is a teen who never had a relationship before and doesn't know how to express his love and devotion for Yashiro. He is learning. He even asks Y to tell him how to behave because he doesn't know what is expected oglf him as a boyfriend. He is not a horny teen just looking for a fun time. He is actually attracted to Yashiro as a person. And wants to express his love to him. He comes to strong because On one side he has already accepted that version of Y and Y is still trying to accept both - him dressing as a girl and a guy liking him. Its a lot and needs time to adjust. But if Momo was not strong willed he would not have been able to break down all the insecurities of Yashiro
As some have pointed out that Momo tried to force himself on Y, but He stopped his aggressive behaviour when he saw that Y didn't want it. He was under the impression that it was both sided because Y invited him over. So no I don't think he had any intention of imposing himself on Y. He only thought that he needed to work more to make Y understand his feelings.
This is a very sweet story that shows how important it is to have someone who loves you and acceps you before you even accept yourself and make you fall in love with yourself. Y not only fell in love with Momo but was able to accept his sexuality and lifestyle because he was so naturally and non judgementally loved by Momo.

Entertaining
LIKED- It is based on a true story but the events were dramatized nicely
- The lead actors performances are decent
- The screenplay is fast-paced, and gripping until the end. The mixture of betrayals and partnership was thrilling.
- The action sequences have been shot and executed quite well.
- The film's end is quite an unexpected turn.
DISLIKED
- most of the action sequence happens during the night, which gives crime a dark thriller, but the fight in dark is not my type.
.
REWATCH: Low, cause am not a fan of action crime
The Gangster, the Cop, and the Devil is an entertaining and decently made crime action film that is worth and learn to be safe and alert at all times.

Oh My God!
what's happening in the film industry in South Korea?? First '20th Century Girl' and now 'Soulmate'. guys prepare to be heartbroken againThe story, the acting, everything was perfect
Kim Da-Mi killed it. She is one of the best actress ever. When she told the guys to go away or she'll break the bottle and scar them made me think of Goo Ja-Yoon, her character from 'The Witch Part 1: The Subversion', the psycho.
This type of storyline fits Byeon Woo-Seok so well. His figure as a school boy seem so realistic
100000% Recommend
Just Wow

VEAN PRIMERO LA COREANA, LUEGO VEAN LA CHINA Y ENTENDERÁN POR QUÉ NO PARECE TAN BUENA.
Me encantan las historias escritas por Anni Baobei.Después de haber visto la versión coreana, esta es mi opinión.
No me han gustado algunas cosas que han hecho. Me explico:
1. Han invertido demasiado tiempo en mostrar su infancia, tiempo que podrían haber invertido en otras cosas.
2. La relación de Haeun y Jinwoo no la han desarollado demasiado.
3.No hay química entre los personajes.
4. Tampoco dejan bien claro los sentimientos de Jinwoo hacia Miso cuando ya son adultos. Jiangmin (versión china) suele estar enamorado de las dos, por está razón Qiyue suele decirle que no se presente el día de la boda porque no suele querer casarse con un hombre que no la ame por completo.
5. Esto es lo que más me ha molestado: Miso no transmite muy bien la personalidad de Ansheng. Esta personalidad desenfrenada, sarcástica y aventurera no la tiene.
La película no es mala, para mi su gran problema es que no transmite el sentimiento que transmite la versión china. No he sentido la química que debería haber entre Haeun , Miso y Jinwoo. El personaje de Jinwoo es muy plano, se siente que solo le han puesto allí para desatar el conflicto entre las chicas y en la versión china, aunque no aparece mucho, las interversiones Jianming son importantes.
Si no hubiese visto la versión china, me parecería una mejor película. Podrían haber explotado mejor esta historia pero no lo han hecho, han tomado sólo lo básico para hacer una historia genérica.

Nice but once a watch
I have watched a few movies with the same concept, finding an old letter and trying to search for its recipient or sender, eventually uncovering something extraordinary about them. And the people who search get motivated by how they truly old generation loved.I do like the concept of the movie, but the editing of the movie just ruins everything. While Jin-tian is talking to Ze-Yang the scene jumps to old times, but everything looked the same whether past or present so I got confused. The old couple story jumps in between without any screen cut or context, they don’t even mention the year. The back and forth between past and present is like spilled coffee all over the place
I felt that the old couple's story had more impact cause they had a more emotional connection.
Present-day JinTian and ZeYang's story was bland and forced with so many emotional traumas as if they were some sinners. if one of them could have acted maturely and adult it would have changed the impact of the movie. They had chemistry but their visuals are too nice that it covered their flawed acting, they could have done better.
The actors who played Lanxin and Joseph Novak were amazing, others were very mediocre honestly maybe because they are newbies.
The scene where Novak and JinTian see each other was very fine and chilling. The ending is satisfying though.

An entertaining movie
Jeon Do-Yeon is really the gem of Korean industry and back with an all-action role! The special effects and swift fighting ??The storyline is abit far fetched but the cinematography is interesting, the CGI are done nicely and they tried to mimic western Kill Bill environment with the office building, lifts etc. Quite refreshing to find the similarities.
The mother and daughter relationship is suppressed, as a Netflix film there's no hesitation in displaying LGBT topics in K scene nowadays and it's definitely forward-thinking as the world evolves. If you are looking for cool dark action movie, Kill Bok Soon is for you.

At first I quite enjoying this movie, but toward the end, for me, it's like unfinished story. They close the curtain at very half-hearted story. The movie tell 2 story. (1) Chuck & Ashley story, where they join the competition. (2) story about Ashley's family & the mysterious red shoes. Unfortunately for us, they only finished 1 story, which about Ashley's family. While the Chuck, Ashley & competition story remain unfinished. More over about chuck's family business, it's like forgotten story, which they don't even bothered again in the end.
Quite happy about Ashley's family. But at the same time every thing happen too fast & unclear. Like the competition itself, we don't know how long the preparation time, rehearsal & the competition day itself, kinda don't make sense how long they give space between rehearsal & competition day, usually only 1 day before the D-day is rehearsal day., but no here. And also the problem between Celine & their dad. Earlier we can see how mad Celine to their dad, but overnight she seems forget about it & just casually talk to their dad. Yeah yeah I know, all for the sake of Ashley can get her happy ending. But it doesn't make sense how fast every thing happen in the end.
This could be one good movie, if only they complete all the story & have more logic timeline.

I've listened to 有一种悲伤 by A-Lin (A kind of sorrow) many times before I've watched the actual movie and it has became one of my favorite song of all times. I knew there was tragedy in this movie, and emotions would be swirled, and at the start of this movie I wasn't feeling it because I felt like the plot felt inconsistent or at a weird pace. Towards to the end of the movie, the saying "下辈子“ (next life) hit me so hard and listening to the song doesn't feel the same. I haven't felt so paralyzed by emotions by a movie, and listening to the song, that I don't think I can listen and sing to the songs again. This of course without saying the first time I've cried to a show in a long time. I would rewatch it if only it didn't bring me so much emotion, maybe the next time when I'm ready to cry I'll watch it again Esta resenha foi útil para você?
film sedih yang bikin candu
headline nya provokatif banget tapi itu yang aku rasain sampai saat ini. Pertama kali aku nonton ini di tahun 2016 dan berhasil bikin aku termewek-mewek sampai saat ini, di tahun 2023 ini. Seinget aku ini film debut nya do kyungsoo dan aku gak nyangka aktingnya sebagus itu. Akting jadi orang buta itu gak gampang dan do kyungsoo berhasil membawakan sosok ko do young dengan sangat baik. kalau Jo Jung Seok gausah dibahaslah. dia aktor senior yang gak diragukan lagi aktingnya. apalagi park Shin Hye, ratunya perfilman korea.walau udah tau endingnya sedih dan bikin mewek, aku yang biasanya menghindari untuk rewatch film-film sad ending ini ternyata malah 'kecanduan' sama my annoying brother. Dan mungkin penyebabnya adalah bonding kakak-beradik di film ini yang terlalu sempurna. hubungan kakak-adik ini gak begitu harmonis, tapi dari sekilas aja kita udah tau kalau mereka saling menyayangi satu sama lain.
ditambah soundtrack film ini yang bisa dibilang legendaris. dari soundtrack nya aja udah bisa bikin kita nangis.
pokonya, banyak hal positif yang ditebarkan lewat film ini. dan nonton film ini hanya satu kali aja itu gak cukup
minusnya, karena ini film, aku gak mendapatkan insight lebih soal keluarga mereka di masa lalu. kalau nantinya film ini dijadiin drama, aku dukung, tapi castnya harus tetep sama

Zatoichi and the Chest of Gold packed plenty of action and humor into its short running time. Unlike many martial arts films from the time, Zatoichi had excellent choreography and a comprehensible story. This sixth film in the franchise was my introduction to the character and I was quite pleased with the film's quality.Zatoichi, a blind traveling gambler and masseur, as well as a swordsman who has a "lightning sword" visits the grave of a man he killed previously. The man who died was the brother of the young woman, Chiyo, accompanying Zatoichi. The local villagers welcome him to their joyous celebration filled with drinking and singing. They finally have the 1000 gold ryo they owe to the ruthless intendant, giving them some room to breathe and more to eat. Unfortunately for Zatoichi, the gold is stolen in a botched robbery. He was coincidentally seen sitting on the pilfered chest which the bad guys recovered. Chiyo was all too quick to name him as a suspect. Zatoichi talks the villagers into giving him a chance to find the real culprits which the villagers grudgingly agree to. His investigation takes him to a bathhouse with a beautiful woman and later to a gang of men led by the somewhat virtuous Chuji who had also been implicated in the crime. It doesn't take long for our blind hero to track down the real villains, the intendant planning double taxation, his corrupt constable, and the three ronin they had hired. One of the ronin, Jushiro, is a whip wielding baddie determined to duel Zatoichi.
The sword-fights were quick with a minimum of blood spurting. Regardless of the number of opponents, the blind hero cut through them like soft butter. Only the final fight caused him problems as he had to seek Jushiro's weakness in order to best his rival.
From the stylistic opening scenes, Zatoichi was beautifully filmed in color. The sets both indoor and outdoors were well done. As Zatoichi carries a young boy down a mountain at night, the constable's men travel with their identical lit lanterns like a glowing caterpillar along the trail. Quite a stunning sight!
The story gave insights into the swordsman, some favorable and some not. He offered a beautiful woman in a communal bath a massage, saying it was okay because he was blind. He came across more as a dirty old man than sensual or humorous. A prostitute gave him a "massage" and then charged him for it which didn't go over well with him. But he also showed his heroic integrity as he went out of his way to help the accusatory villages knowing they would be unable to come up with more money for taxes which would have been a death sentence for them.
Katsu Shintaro brought the right amount of gravity and humor to the legendary swordsman. After Zatoichi's last fight, beaten and bruised, struggling to walk, you could feel the weight of the character's recent trials. I do wish I had a dollar for every time he mentioned he was only a blind man, I'd have enough to eat out for a week! Jushiro was played by Katsu's real-life brother. Their brutal fight would have been a cathartic way to work out old sibling rivalries.
The film highlighted the plight of the hardworking poor, striving to exist under a system crushing them and the corrupt leaders loading the boulders on their shoulders. Zatoichi was the mythical character who could break through the massive unscrupulousness and ease their burden, righting the wrongs committed against them. Something we might all wish for when life seems unfair. I was quite pleased with my foray into this franchise and look forward to watching other films with the self-effacing and lightning quick swordsman.

could’ve been different but still i <3 it
as someone who ugly sobs at the ending.. i really wish the ending was different but i think if they add made it different, it wouldn’t be as powerful as it was.. i’d love a part two and i don’t mean the one that already exists because that was garbage. a part 2 showing the aftermath of the situation. just throwing out some ideas on what i would’ve loved… part 2 but it takes 1 year later and we get the typical flashbacks of the aftermath.. would’ve loved the pregnant woman and dad together honestly but that’s just me loving romance.. but then again it’s far fetched as you could tell she was in love with her husband but seeing her connect and protect someone’s child? could’ve been a BOMB stepmother as the child’s mom was still alive (i’m pretty sure) either way this movie is worth all of the hype as it’s not your typical zombie movie tbh, the storyline may be typical but the feelings ? def not and the music choices? amazing.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
interesting that this was based on a true story
i remembered couple of months ago i watched on Youtube about gay love in china and how it was in the past so i heard about Zi Hua and Zi Gao and i remember i was fascinated about the info of how much the man was in love with the guy, he made him his lover ,gave him a name and important positions too he gave him a lot, it did look like genuine love as he tried to make him appear as equal and was courting him so hard,the real definition of whipped, but their love ended in tragic way, and it wasnt a relationship problem, Zi Hua died then Zi Gao become vulnerable, i dont remember the details of that video but he commited suicide later on. i dont consider this a spoiler because thats how it ended in real life but i dont think thats how it ended in the movie, by reading comments it looks better than how it really ended in the real life,so after knowing that this movie was based on them i was really excited to watch the movie ,then i felt dissapointed, mostly because of how messed up the eng translation was so i lost interest to watch something that im barely understanding

im a cat lover and still i didnt like this
too much short, and so rushed too ,everything felt out of placethe only thing i loved is the cat, the cat looked adorable thats all, i liked how the cat was trying to get in the bathroom when the owner is showering, thats what cats usually do
but now about the plot? this did have potential if it was longer and more detailed instead of putting every clichy scene that exists, it was so weird how he immediately accepted to keep a stranger that he doesnt know in his house, the guy could be a murderer or someone dangerous, he didnt even know later that he is the cat that he took care of? and that shower scene and them suddenly in love, a fight because of ciragets and a car accident thats what happened, seriously... the worse plot ever
i know its only 25 mins but even in those 25 mins the events that happened could have been better,,its just looked so ridiculous
i dont see myself rewatching this at all
