Oh Jung Se plays a doting father who will do anything for his daughter in 'High Five' Between the Ordinary and the Extraordinary! Who Are We? ‘High Five’ Five strangers - Taekwondo prodigy Wan Seo, struggling writer Ji Seong, rookie manager Seon Nyeo, rigid team leader Yak Seon, and eccentric jobless Gi Dong - come from completely different walks of life. But fate ties them together when they each receive life-saving organ transplants - heart, lungs, kidney, liver, and cornea - from the same mysterious donor. Along with their renewed health, they also inherit unexpected supernatural powers, each unique and unexplainable. As they discover strange marks on their bodies and realize their shared connection, the five reluctantly form a team. But with wildly different personalities, values, and temperaments, teamwork proves harder than it sounds; bickering and chaos follow them everywhere. Meanwhile, Yeong Chun, the charismatic yet dangerous leader of the cult-like “New God Church”, receives a pancreas transplant from the same donor, and with it, a terrifying ability. Believing these powers are divine gifts, he sets out to find and absorb the abilities of the others, hoping to ascend as an all-powerful being.

Reviews
This review may contain spoilers
An action comedy movie about five (six) people suddenly get a superpower after getting an organ transplant. One person is trying to acquire all of the superpowers while the others are trying to stop him, seems like a classic superhero storyline. The story is mixed between action and comedy, but somehow this create a confusing situation whether this movie is tend to be realistic or silly-ish. For an almost two hours long movie, the storyline is quite shallow. Some of the decisions made by the characters are bizzare and come out of nowhere. The CGI is so bad, intentional or not. Even if it's intentional, their original intention may not worked. Good thing to take is the main character's performance. They all have done an excellent job, especially Lee Jae In. On the other hand, the villain(s) don't bring enough evil aura though.

Flashy but hollow
It's a mixed bag to a very serious degree, they're going for extreme cult comedy that even the main arc itself is about fighting a religious cult leader, paired together with characters that acquired superhuman abilities due to some organ transplantation mythology. Most of the time the storyline was quite witty but also consistently dumb, one of the better aspects is the chemistry between the actors and their charismatic acting as they liven up the characters. The cgi part though is literally the weakest thing in this movie, they just don't look realistic on screen, whether intentionally or not, the unrefined graphics are sadly quite distracting to look at.Was this review helpful to you?
