River of Murder

First off, I'd like to preface this by saying that the description on this site is so far off. I was expecting something completely different after reading it. So, if the description is what's keeping you from watching this, think it over again.

Now then, on to the review.

Story: The story...was incredibly confusing for the first half hour or so. I was just not sure what was going on. One thing would happen, and that would lead to a flashback, and then we'd be back to the present, but we aren't even sure if it's actually the present or what; seriously, it was confusing.

The speed with which it was told wasn't too horrible. It let's you kind of get used to what's happening before time jumping a few years and leaving you a little confused again.

The story itself isn't really much. Two friends like the same girl and that causes a rift between them that goes on for years. Nothing new.

Acting: The acting wasn't too bad. It was probably the best part of the movie, even if it wasn't that spectacular.

Kim Da Hyun, I feel, did an awesome job in his role. The same goes for Shin Sung Rok. The rest of the cast didn't really do much for me.

Music: Other than one song that seems to get played/sung a lot, I don't remember a single song or any of the music. As for the one song I do remember, I definitely disliked it.

Rewatch Value: I'm not really sure if I'd ever want to watch it again, but I figure I probably wouldn't say no if anybody ever asked me to watch it with them or something.

Overall: Unfortunately, I don't really have much to say about this movie. It didn't really leave a huge impact on me or anything. If you can get over the confusing parts of the movie though, I think you could probably enjoy this a lot more than I did.
