Ayano Go is so believable in these tortured person roles. That equal measure of struggling, compassionate father and the policeman in one person. The ethical questions of euthanasia.
It's funny that women are judged harshly for the same behavior that men do without thinking twice. Maybe that…
I appreciate that you aim to judge people EQUALLY that’s a fair and principled stance. Often society doesn’t judge equally, even if we as individuals try to.
Many double standards are so deeply ingrained that we might not even notice them. For example, a man being assertive is often framed as ‘leadership,’ while a woman acting the same way might be called ‘bossy’ or ‘aggressive.’ A man prioritizing his career is ambitious; a woman doing the same might be questioned about her personal life or commitment to family.
So while your personal intent is to be fair which is great the broader point is that the same behavior is often interpreted differently depending on whether a man or a woman does it. The drama might be highlighting that disconnect between intention and perception.
The writer is clearly asking you to think about it and expose your own biases. It's social critique.
Mixing romance and horror is not easy to do. It's not bad; it deserves more than a 6.5. It's better than some horror movies I've watched. The similarity between Korean shamans and some Asian horror is very interesting.
I don't know if the FL was stupid or selfish. She would make all sorts of declarations without thinking about her friends or safety. That's the only downside part of the movie.
