I just finished it and i got to say at first i didn't think that they knew each others feelings since they never really spoke about it to me they just looked like really close childhood friends ... but apparently in this movie "feelings don't need to be spoken" seems to be there quote :)
I didn't really get why the two families were fighting over and why they were so against the two leads ... kind of like the really story of romeo and Juliette. And just like in the book there love (even tho they don't express it very much) felt real, pure, sincere and deep. Which is basically due to the Great acting of the actors they had chemistry it felt real.
The ending on the other and left me ... unsatisfied? it was weird it was not a bad or sad ending but it didn't have that "happily ever after" you wish for during the movie :S
To conclude this movie was great except for the disappointing ending that's why u gave it an 8/10

Nodame Cantabile: O Filme, - Parte II
11 pessoas acharam esta resenha útil
The continuation and deepening of both Chiaki's and Nodame's talents and relationship are the focus. And they both have to decide what they want and what is important. The story is told in the same funny, silly and charming way the whole series has been told. This movie is the best of them and usually with sequels, you can't say that.
More of my thoughts are expressed in the other review and I'd only be repeating myself too much.
The music is a 10. I can't give it any lower. I think I am more of a classical fan now.
I give the re-watch a 10 because I just got done watching a 2nd time.
I recommend the whole series highly.

Nodame Cantabile: A Pontuação Final, Parte I
15 pessoas acharam esta resenha útil
This show and particularly the movie, are so much more than just your average drama. I have already reviewed the Jdrama Nodame Cantabile and I would only add one really important thing you should know. Nodame and Chiaki live in Paris and their journey is set in a much more adult world past college into apprenticeship and learning to become Pro. They have a new group of friends, harder challenges and also a deeper, more mature place in their relationship.
But trust me, it hasn’t lost all of its comic book slapstick and silliness. I think the way the writers made both Chiaki and Nodame grow up is very smart of them and cool for us viewers. This movie is a fun. Because Nodame is still sloppy and she still has all of her core craziness intact. Chiaki is still a stuffy, cranky commitment phobic but he is also still tender and kind of a sucker for Nodame. They have become in my mind eccentric because they are genius and geeky, not because they are comic manga characters with no depth. Again, the writers of this show/manga are smart.
Of course the cinematography is great. They are in Paris! Everything looks great, all the time. (Accept Nodame’s apartment.)
The music is a 10. It’s Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Revel and on and on.
If you haven’t watched the Nodame Series, you should give it a try but
I suggest definitely watching before you watch this movie. And when you do, you’ll think this movie is the best part of the series.

To sum up Battle Royale is a good movie for its period not because of its acting or any other cinematographic value, but because of the idea behind it.

The one thing that makes Dream High great is the ability to keep you wanting more at the end of each episode. You really want to see these characters follow their dreams. You want to see who's going to debut and of course who's going to have the necklace next. Every episode had me wanting more.
The music is great and of course the dancing. It's fun to watch them sing especially since they all have so many great voices and talents.
The characters are all fun to watch and you have a great cast. Some of their acting skills are not the best but they still held their own. I loved Sam Dong. I was surprised by turns that some characters took (Pil Sook, Hye Mi, and Baek Hee) during the drama. I liked watching the change with these characters. Jason and Pil Sook are just adorable to watch on screen. They were both my favorite characters.
The story wasn't beyond but because of the cast and the music made the show good. They had some cheesy moments but this type inspirational drama needed just that.

Still I watched all 17 episodes, and when you begin, probably you will too...Why? Because you probably like Kim Nam Gil and Kim Jae Wok, not only because they are handsome but also would be interested in their caracters...You will probably be curious about the reason of the revenge. Well I was more curious how much more the plot could be exaggareted. You also will probably like the OST. (no bad comments here)
Overall, when I finished the drama there was only one thing in my mind... I really hope they paid the actors well,because it must be very tiresome for them...

Compared to the anime, this seems rushed. That maybe because its a movie. I liked the anime better. I liked how this was based on the anime.
I liked how the character has a lot of different moves. It reafreshed my memory from the anime.
I liked the ending music, the movie showed. Made me fel like the need to dance.
Some of the characters was complete reflections of the anime characters.
I expected too much from the movie because i really enjoyed the anime, but still i would stil recomend it to people. I still enjoyed this.

Shut Up: A Banda de Garotos Bonitos
2 pessoas acharam esta resenha útil
it's definitely a MUST SEE drama.
Seriously, probably the best one I've ever seen!
First of all, the story. I can't say that it's really unique or absolutely marvelous, but I think it's quite good. As it's about music, about school band and such, it's easy to like it, nice to watch it and, of course, enjoy. It's not the first and not the last drama about music, however, the story is one of the better ones. It's not too predictable, but still easy to follow. You get into it from the very first moment and you kind of experience everything together with the main characters.
Of course there were some things I didn't like (for example, Byung Hee's storyline) but, well, bad things make other ones seem good!
As for acting I can't say if it's absolutely perfect as I'm not a judge or something, but it definitely makes that "rock band" feeling. I like the cast even though I haven't seen these actors in other dramas or films. But perhaps it's for the best as I can't compare their acting and I don't think of them as characters from other dramas. Anyway, what is really strange it's Kim Myung Soo's role! He seemed so silent and, you know, cute, nice and shy guy. But in this drama... well, he really is something! And I really do like this change!
More or less all characters are really great as they're so different but similar at the same time. They make an amazing cast and definitely a wonderful band.
Music in this drama is pretty nice. I even started to listen to "Eye Candy" performed songs and I love them!
On the whole, I'm quite impressed by this drama and I like it much more than other Oh! Boy series drama (Flower Boy Ramyun Shop).
And they didn't ruin the ending.(I was so happy when there were no "after 2 years scene!)

Kimchi Family is a real family drama with an extremely well written mystery and lovely little romance wrapped up inside. Every episode highlights a recipe for a type of Kimchi or on some occasions, a traditional Korean dish. Every type of kimchi and how it is prepared is mixed with a lesson about family, forgiveness, friendship, love, trust and on and on. The writing and acting are extremely well done. The way the plot advances and moves toward its conclusion is not rushed and no story line is left hanging. The pacing is perfect. This is a rare thing, even for the best Kdrama.
The thing that struck me about this drama is it's mix of corny and wise, silly and serious, tender and real. The well played out mysteries are what ended up surprising me. There were actually two! Ki Ho Tae and his search for his roots and another, slightly darker mystery that I won't spoil here. The great thing about how they were written is the subtlety and rationale of the characters. Each actors' dialog and reactions weren't over melodramatic and maudlin and yet still emotional and moving. I was excited to see how they would be solved.
I also loved how every episode was all about food, it's preparation, it's healing qualities for body and soul and it's ability to bring family together; both blood family and the family you choose with your heart.
Song Il Gook and Park Jin Hee were great. Their romance was sweet and their chemistry was lovely. Every actor did a great job. I have not one complaint.
The cinematography and lighting, the set designs were all so well done. I'm almost sad it's over now because I'm going to miss Earth and Man Restaurant.
The music was great! There is one song in particular that I absolutely loved. I don't know the name but it was a mix of traditional Korean, modern pop and rap! It was so catchy that I was actually bummed when an episode passed and it wasn't played.
I gave the re-watch value a 10 because even though I might not watch this again, it certainly is as far from a 1 (pathetic) as you could get.
I recommend this highly for anyone who is looking for an original (yes, original!) story and one that is maturely written and very well told.

The drama is definitely an eye opener. There are a lot of shocking moments in this drama where you go my dear god would people actually do that! They're appalling but it really gives you perspective on how seriously politics was taken back then. Also it gives great insight into the slave class and how they were treated in Korea. The drama does a great job of bringing light to that. On top of that the writers did an excellent job of weaving in romance where possible among the tragedies and mysteries of the palace.
Han Hyo Joo does an excellent job of portraying the righteous, just and beautiful Dong Yi who captures many a man's heart while she's on the quest for justice. Ji Jin Hee IS EXCELLENT. I don't know how else to say it. I'm actually a Bae Soo Bin fan so for Ji Jin Hee to steal the light from him in the drama was a pretty big deal for me. He's an excellent king! Very unlike the other kings I've seen in dramas who are portrayed very seriously and he makes it very easy to like him as a leader. Lee So Yeon is a scary woman...honestly her eyes scare me, she truly is the perfect choice for the seductress Lady Jang. Bae Soo Bin is sweet but not quite the main focus so I'll refrain from commenting on how awesome he looks with a beard.
The music behind the scenes is great and it suits the drama perfectly. Sometimes there's some pieces that when you know they come up something bad is going to happen and so I just started hating those ones but thats the only negative thing I can really say about that. Jang Nara is a great song.
And over all! It is honestly one of the best dramas I've ever seen.
Yes you should see it. Absolutely. You'd be a fool not to :) Even with it's 60 hour length!
