Streaming (2025)

An Eye-opening thriller about fame and deception!!!

I recently finished watching Streaming and honestly, it was a really great thriller movie. It felt very different from the usual thrillers and I really liked it.
What stood out the most for me was Kang Ha-neul’s acting. He was absolutely amazing. The way he portrayed nervousness and anxiety was so real, especially how he would shiver and stutter when something intense or dangerous happened. His mannerisms were so natural that it didn’t feel like acting at all. It made me connect even more with his character. His performance was truly on point and I really, really enjoyed watching him.The story was also very interesting. It gave a different perspective on the world of online streaming and influencers. It showed how far people are willing to go for money and fame, even if it means putting themselves in real danger or faking entire situations just for views.
One supporting character, Mathilda, stages fake scenarios to make people believe they are real. It really makes you think about how scripted and fake some parts of online content can be, and how little some people care about the viewers all they care about is the attention and money.
Without giving away spoilers, I’ll just say that the villain’s obsession adds another layer to the story, making it even more intense.
Overall, Streaming was quite a different experience for me, in a good way. I absolutely loved the acting and the story was strong too.
It’s definitely a movie I would recommend if you want a thriller that is unique and leaves you thinking even after it ends.

The forefront of experimental cinema

Korean cinema is always the one that dares to take the leap and stays at the forefront of experimental cinema of the bleeding edge, the entire movie was done in the lens of live streaming POVs, and yet it was brilliantly executed in favor of that sense of internet surrealism and algorithm war. The plot is really hefty and well planned, the mocking of those sensational live streamers that could do anything for fame and monetization, while pulling effective plot twists in crime thriller fashion, the direction is just smart as hell. Meanwhile Kang Ha Neul who is the man of focus, his blazing presence as the whole spotlight shines through with his absolutely insane acting performances, this movie will definitely remain as one of his most remarkable works for years.
