strange movie
I wanted to like this movie as I enjoy Jung Kyung Ho as an actor. Unfortunately, there is not enough information to become invested in the characters. From the beginning, you realize this movie will be melancholy. That is entirely understandable, as you know this is going in. But they introduce a new character and give no backstory in the movie. You are left to determine what role they are playing in the sad drama unfolding. Is the point of this character to say life goes on and there is a reason to keep living? Does the character show he is slowly losing grasp on reality?Was this review helpful to you?
Too convoluted
I liked the plot, and it had a lot of potential. I am always a fan of Ji Chang-wook's work, so I was looking forward to this film based on the early reviews. It started strong, but (without giving away spoilers) it took a bizarre turn in the middle that distracted from the central plot. Eventually, it largely abandoned this new storyline to return to the original one. During the action sequences, they included unnecessary elements, such as unresolved character grievances and unrealistic twists. Also, how did Chang-wook's character go from being a friendly florist to a super fighter? I couldn't suspend my disbelief enough for this drama.Was this review helpful to you?
