My review is gonna be a bit unordered so bare with me. The casting was so shallow. I understand they had to choose some seriously unlikable characters but god damn, the characters were indeed so damn annoying, lol. The movie was completely full of jumpscares and thats all there was to it. No actual found footage feel but just a wannabe. I don’t think they even tried copying Gonjiam cuz it seemed more like those fake tiktok vids where people try scaring u with trashy editing. They tell u that there’s some serious mf nurse who’s a ghost but god knows why they never even showed that nurse’s shadow, but some random a** teenage kids trying to scare the sh*t out of them. The ghosts were literally speaking English with them like wtf. Very honestly I haven’t seen a lot of filipino movies but this one was indeed a bad one. Also, there’s a reason why other asian movies whether it be Japanese or korean or Chinese does so much better than filipino ones and the reason is that they don’t make their characters speak English for no reason. Not to mention, when a human’s scared they usually speak their own language but who in the hell gets scared in English.
Overall, a not to watch movie. I watched it bcuz of some smarta**es doing a reaction on tiktok. But I regret decision.
😂 That phone transfer in epi 11 was just not so right. I was literally laughing thinking about that. It just shows how little the drama though of such things.
Dude, I don't really know if I ever saw such a versatile actress as Park Eunbin in SK. Her skills in adapting to any role is just mind-blowing. She who usually seen as a bubbly and innocent woman, performed a psycho mu**erer role with expectations exceeding anyone's. One might think that there r numerous others but I say that, he's there r others but there's only one park Eunbin. This show doing good or bad doesn't even matter atp cuz the acting is all that set the bar high for Park Eunbin and she will never gonna let anyone cross her.
P. S. The show's good BTW. U only have to focus on Park Eunbin and u will automatically be amazed.
The cast was so good but park eun bin. Well she was just the cherry on top. I literally laughed so hard bcuz of her 😂 She is indeed the best actress in whole korea.
Intimate scenes in kdrama is big no for me. I mean cmon, r we seriously gonna tarnish the image of kdramas with some unnecessary intimate stuff. The moment I saw that scene, i literally jumped right to the end and ended the show. Kdramas r better than western shows for a reason Nd one of that being "no intimate kiss and no intimate s** scenes". Cuz even without those things kdrama r able to show the pure love between the characters. And yet here these korean directors r suddenly incorporating western stuff just bcuz k-culture is booming.
True. I too believe women were not really made the part of the game. It was really hard to watch them struggle just bcuz they were put against some obvious different physique men. I seriously think there should be an all female physical 100. I think there we will be able to see a fair match.
Can someone recommend other shows like this. I seriously searched for something similar like this and couldn't find any. Rather I got some stupid variety shows which has nothing but unnecessary jokes.
I seriously would wanna address the personalities of Harvard Team. They all were competitive and all but lacked the basic ethical behavior, especially the girls. I don't have anything against Sky and Janice but they were being a bit over the board for no reason at all. The way they were literally putting themselves above everyone just bcuz of their school was just so rude. Not to mention, I could feel the way those girlz were not thinking too much of other teams. Sky was literally the rudest I would say. The way she was not even interested in hitting conversations with other schools was just super irritating. Well, I guess they simply forgot about their roots when they left korea. Yes u might be in Harvard but the other schools were also called the Hravards of Korea for a reason.
Harvard sky and janice were really rude and arrogant in mbti game.
I understand but honestly they were just being cautious which definitely isn't bad or anything. Though the way they were literally comparing the cards with KU but denying it with SNU says a lot about them. I think once they left korea, they forgot their roots.
It's good no doubt. But when u have two unnecessary wannabe jokers in the show, things get a bit underwhelming. I think people already know who I m talking about
BTW, this maybe the first korean movie in which the acting of the cast was sh*t. Generally korean movies r expected to have good acting but this one sucked big time.
It's kinda sad that, most of the trainees r only there for attendance. Not to mention, these survival shows r rigged to their core. They already fix their trainees and the only purpose of other trainees is to elongate the episode hence show. Even the voting is rigged. These survival shows r only made for money and promotion for the agency who's gonna debut the group. But viewers despite knowing all of this, watch shows like this like fools.
I don't get why survival shows think that having 100 trainees is the right thing 😭 That literally cuts 90% of trainees already. People hardly can focus on 10 trainees and u r telling me, 100 trainees will be good.
I think there were few, who could be called good entertainers or r somewhat familiar with variety shows. Nara, park seo joon, park bo gum. Others were either too timid to talk or too image conscious to act out of character. Nara was literally the best among them, as she has been in many variety shows that she can get comfortable in instant.
Chae soo bin is my fav but she seemed a bit to shy and couldn't show much of her side.
Good but at some point it felt like that, some actors were faking things, especially the headphone challenge. That challenge was a bit obvious that cast could hear things but had to pretend they cannot for the sake of show.
Also, I believe the reason u cannot have these actors in variety shows is because of their schedule. They r hardly available and cannot stay for variety shows for so long. Anyways, the show is good but bcuz most of the cast was not familiar with variety show concept, they couldn't bring out their all unlike idols who if ever get one chance to appear on variety show, can perform much better than the actors without script.
why is that, u cannot trust a drama with ratings below 8.5Like literally, I've seen many 7 pointer dramas and unfortunately, they all sucked big time.I usually binge watch dramas bcuz that gives u enough time to know, whether to watch something or not. So the ratings play a big role in that and I drop all 7 pointers without even giving a try cuz I trust ratings more than myself 😂
