It wasn't until i read @einepriseglitzer's review posted above that i noticed the Screenwriter was the same person who wrote Tremble All You want (a quick shout out to Mayu Matsuoka for her exceptional work, she is easily one of the best actress of her generation btw). No wonder Mitsuko's vibe felt familiar.
I love this one a little more than i did Tremble because the female lead here spoke up her mind as much as she did internally. And the way her relationship with Tada-kun progressed felt natural and realistic, they conversed in a relaxed manner, blunt but you could still sense their nervousness deep within. And my one my fave things about it was their hand holding moments. Tender and loving.
And Non, girl..she's a beauty but she also can act. The female comedian scene was a solid proof that this girl was born to be an actual actress who managed to say almost everything with saying a thing.
FL is a thot bitch who will sleep with anyone. The most disgusting type of FL I’ve seen
Did you even finish the whole thing?
If not, then your hate towards it is uncalled for because anyone who has done watching the entire series knows she never slept with just anyone she randomly met, kiddo.
Grow up first before watching anything involving grown up stuff.
Goodness...where do i even begin with this exceptional feature film.
One thing am sure of though is that Night in Paradise will stay with me for a very long time.
Oftentimes, full fledge noir or suspense thriller movies are majorly plot driven and heavy in the action department that, at least for me, they overlook the human element of the lead's story, i didn't even get to properly empathize or relate with them because I could barely see them showing their inner struggle, mentally and emotionally from up close. I hardly ever got the chance to actually 'connect' with them as a person because they were too busy running away from their enemies, changing places and hiding in fear.
But this movie is few and far between.
There were some tranquil bits in the movie that perhaps to some it might seem too melo for a noir movie, but take it from me, by the time you reached the final chapter of it, you'd find yourself rewinding back to those quiet, serene moments and appreciate them even more seriously than you thought you ever would. Also the score & the cinematography are simply splendid. I know now why this movie is Venice-qualified. It deserved every right to be premiered there
Uhm Tae Goo & Jeon Yeo Been..well..what a badass pair you two. Brava!
Just when you thought you were certain of the direction from a certain point of time, the plot proved me wrong,…
Ohh.. how i wish Kyoichiro & Hiromi had met under a much better circumstance. The way their eyes lit up literally almost every single time they ran into each other was just heartwarming.
Just when you thought you were certain of the direction from a certain point of time, the plot proved me wrong, time and time again.
Wonderfully crafted whodunnit feature film with a proper hint of subtle black/dry comedy inserted every now and then. Also Det. Kaga isn't your typical cold dude who doesn't even blink when they speak of or do something, he smiles a lot and even acts rather silly at times.
Finally a mystery J-movie that actually remains mysterious nearly the entire time of the film.
Hilarious that people hate this movie because they don't understand a simple plot, it's not that hard to understand…
This foine movie gave me that remarkable finale I haven't seen in recent K-movies for the longest time, a thorough closure to close the entire chapters of the leads' stories.
I will never understand this rating system, this has 6.4 but Family by Choice which is not even original but a…
Word.
I find it very disrespectful for one to rate any cinematic work, be it a feature film or a tv series without completing it.
Sure you can have your opinion about how do you think or feel it should've been, but to grade it low when you did NOT even bother seeing the whole thing is just straight up immature. Not to mention this series literally just premiered yesterday.
It seems that you have stereotypes and prejudices about Chinese entertainment while fetishizing Japan, South Korea…
It seems that you have stereotypes and prejudices about non Chinese entertainment audience while thinking that you have enough common sense and good judgment to be incredibly rude towards someone you never even met before.
There is only one Asian crime tv series that can ever match the quality of Burning River, and that would be none other than Secret Forest Season 1 (also known as Stranger).
Burning River is so well made and impactful. Still i remember every. single. name. of the team members of the police squad even now. AND also the names of the main so-called villains. Why 'so-called' !? you'll get it once you done watching this A1 showpiece.
The plot is tight, riveting, engaging and most importantly, it kept the mystery alive up until the last few episodes of both cases. It depicts two main stories, 12 episodes each, and both conveyed a powerful message about how each of us has our own monster deeply hidden in the innermost nook of our hearts and minds that should never be awaken, & how easily people can take each other's presence for granted.
The teamwork of the detectives involved in this crime-thriller drama is the BEST i have ever seen from any tv series alike. It allows you to briefly have a closer look of each member's personality as the story progressed, and gradually understand why they are the way they are. Their presence, individually & communally, is equally substantial to the main leads, and it never felt they were there as mere additional roles.
And the cases, tell you what..my blood boiled with helpless fury (both times) when most things were finally revealed in the later episodes. I say more than this and there will be some official spoilers disclosed.
Captain Lin, Zhou Wei, Lao Liu, Lao Fang, Xiao Min, Xiao Ma, Xiao Wei, and the 'villains' (whose names i seriously can't mention here for a few key reasons), i will never forget y'all.
clever marketing move.
Simple but looks powerful.
Freddie Highmore-led Good Doctor is NOT the original one.,
Joo Won's Good Doctor is.
Brilliant actors them both.
