As I see from other reviews, fans of the webtoon are not happy with this adaptation because it isn’t true to the source material. But for me, who never read this specific webtoon, the movie was a great introduction to the story, and now I want to read the comic as well—in fact, I just read the first episode. So fans can be glad that this movie will introduce more people to the original ongoing story in the webtoon.

If nothing else, this movie certainly satisfied my fantasy appetite. The director didn’t waste too much time on drama or deep storytelling and instead focused on epic action and fantasy. It is pure fantasy, and I’m happy about that. A movie critic could easily point out all the flaws in the story’s coherence and the somewhat AI-like CGI, but for me, a humble viewer, this was as entertaining as it could be. I felt the adrenaline, the rush, and the suspense, and I witnessed the birth of a new hero that the world needs amidst the chaos caused by the “constellations.”

I also liked the moral questions about human nature and the fight for survival that are implied in the story. All in all, Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy is a movie that fans of the fantasy genre will appreciate. We still exist.

P.S. It's a long way until the scenario 99.
