5 Minutes to Tomorrow is really not for everyone but I'm intrigued and pleased to see it on your list. Like you,…
I absolutely agree that you have to have an appreciation and love for artistic independent films in order to enjoy all this movie has to offer and having Haruma Miura is an added bonus to this film. Thanks for reading:)
I saw Ex Files. It was funny. Probably my first Chinese Rom/Com movie ever.
It was my first Chinese Rom/Com as well. Actually this was my second attempt into pushing myself to start watching Chinese movies other than my usual old school Kung Fu or recent martial arts movies. After the first attempt failed miserably, I am kind of glad that I gave it a chance. I really enjoyed all 3 movies above. Thanks for reading:)
Good Job, Anna. KHJ was the "oppa" who reeled me into Korean Dramas and KPOP .So without out him there would be no addiction to Kdramas. Is that really a good thing?.... LOL!
Genome Hazard was really good! I'll have to look for these other two.
Check them out. I don't think you will be disappointed. I think I will appreciate All-Around Appraiser Q much better when I find a decent subtitle copy.
GENOME HAZARRRRRD. That was my reaction when I saw it was in this article. I love that movie so much it's not…
As I go along on my movie watching, Genome Hazard is creeping up on my favorite movie list. Since the writing of this article, I have already re-watched it. I am so in awe of Hidetoshi Nishijima acting, that I am planning to watch many more his movies.
I love me some Hidetoshi Nishijima so Genome Hazard is going on the list if it isn't there already. This movie…
If you love HN, you will love him in Genome Hazard. I am convinced if any other actor played lead, I wouldn't have enjoyed it.
As far as The After Dinner Mysterious, I found out there was a drama by the same name after watching the movie so I would say they are independent of each other so it's safe to watch the movie without seeing the drama or special.
If you decide to watch Genome Hazard, let me know what you think of it:)
Japanese mysteries! Yay! My favorite genre! I loved the drama Nazotoki wa dinner no ato de and I didn't know that…
You should definitely give a try. It's hilarious. I am sure if you loved the drama, you wont' be disappointed in the movie. I definitely have the drama on my list to watch now. I just love the chemistry between Reiko and her butler.
Awesome post. I think we are kindred spirits with this list. My opinions and feelings of all these with the exception of Kim Soo Ro (I haven't seen him YET) are spot on with you. I love all these men and they are certainly a main reason for checking out anything they are in. What really had me clapping at these article was your sentiments about Kam Woo Sung. He blew me away in The King and His Clown and that was the first time I seen him. His acting has left a long lasting impression on me.
I'll gonna take note of these mystery movies :) I've been watching dramas and movies with crime and mysteries…
You aren't the only one that has been in the mood for mystery and crime movies lately. It's good to get lost in a good whodunit or a why did they do it theme. I totally agree with you about the Japanese movies, they are the best. They have a penchant for going above and beyond in getting your attention. I haven't watched Murder of Snow White but it is on list to watch:) Let me know of any others that I should check out.
Shikeidai no Elevator sounds interesting. (Wasn't there also a Hollywood remake of it? That plot sounds familiar,…
I searched for that information and it seems that there was talk about a Hollywood remake back in 2001 and the title was to be renamed "Crime of Honor". I couldn't find anymore information than that.
You and me both would love to read the Reiko Himekawa series. I think we are out of luck on the English print. I have been searching and searching. I have seen them translated in Chinese & Thai.
