I was just in the mood for some singing movie or drama and this one fed my appetite.
As far as the plot goes, the movie never deviates from the standard approach to inspiring teacher- troublesome student pattern. It follows all the standard elements you can expect from such movies and also it feels very much like a korean drama.
But there is just something easily engaging about it and I think it rests in major part on the performances of the leads. The young student is a character you root for easily, such an underdog (Lee Je Hoon is quite good and it;s a discovery for me here, I feel like observing this young actor for a bit more, see how he fares in future projects) Plus both leads have amazingly good working chemistry and also they hit all right notes in their performance. Han Seok Kyu is a solid actor that I really like having seen him in some flicks before and I'm happy to watch him as the cynical but ultimately caring teacher. I want to watch him in a Tree with Deep Roots all the more now.
Overall, an easily likeable film that offers nothing new but for me I guess this kind of story never gets old: to see an underdog being motivated by an inspiring teacher for succes and to make more out of his life.
I need to find out who sings in this movie, though. I would prefer it if they sang the songs themselves (it;s so much more fun to have singing actors) rather than using a backup singer but well the kind of songs they perform aren;t exactly easy to perform for just anyone.
I love this movie because in general I love all the standard inspiring teacher stories like To Sir with Love and others. So nothing new here but for lovers of such stories like me this is a good watch. There is also the music factor involved that i find attractive for this kind of stories. . This is the type of movie I would rewatch too: an easy, comfortable watch with very good performances. The rating reflects my personal preference and enjoyment I derive from watching a strong bond between a teacher and student. Having had teachers like this that I love until today (and even maintain correspondence with), these kind of stories just kind of hit me riight in the heart.
I added them all to my PTW list and already watched Kiss Me, Kill Me! :D It was indeed a really weird movie and it made me feel so awkward but in a very comfortable way!!
Don't know if that makes any sense, but I enjoyed it a lot! ^^
