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.

Hi-Five
Well a little story time - I had a opportunity to watch it in cinema, because of Korean Movie Festival which one of cinema in my country do every year (as far as I know) - so of course it is a little different experience than watching on computer, especially when it is not comercial cinema, so less people, they actually well-behaved and there was no food/drinks so no noices. Also it was funny when there were subs in english and my native language (had to admit our translators did better job). What more I was watching with my husband, so it was hard to say if he will have good time at all, but he liked it. End of story.Hmm if I had to compare I would say it is like The uncanny counters - and it was clear from description and trailer. And it is not a bad thing. Well I personally love TUC so I also really liked this. It was funny, stupid, full of action. Of course I would prefer it as a series, but it is really great movie - one of the best I watched this year. Acting for on point, great music.
I usually talk about actors, so two who catch my attention the most:
- Park Jin Young - he is really good as a villain, they need to give him more of such roles, totally different than in Our unwritten Seoul and The witch, I think that I like him more as a villain
- Yoo Ah In - love his character! probably my favourite, I love Quicksilver reference (maybe not everyone will think the same, I mean maybe not everyone see any reference there).
Yeah totally worth watching!

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.
