"Playing with gun powder set me free." A fascinating documentary, full of dedication and passion, about the stunning large-scale art and firework projects of artist Cai Guo Qiang and his journey to achieve the making of "Sky Ladder", his lifelong dream of a 500-meter-tall ladder leading to the sky.
Nothing groundbreaking, but still very suspenseful and enjoyable. Top-notch production, nice pacing and some great acting from the main cast. Though it felt too westernized and subs were more necessary for the English speaking parts than the Korean ones, it was a well-made drama and a nice addition in the drug/action genre.
A fast-paced, well-written and beautifully filmed story about the epic forbidden love between a devil and a fairy. Wonderful, meticulously designed set-ups for every realm and clan, lavish costumes and decorations, well-fitted music and songs, and a balanced screen time for all characters and subplots. Dylan Wang's majestic, fierce and totally captivating antihero Dongfang Qing Cang and his funny as well as touching transformation was a pleasure to watch and the best part of this engaging drama!
Dark, heavy and very sophisticated. Unique and tightly knitted plot, masterfully woven characters and interconnections, gripping story-telling. With some mind-blowing plot twists, top-notch acting, superb cinematography, directing and music and a performance of a lifetime from Lee Seung Gi, this drama is definitely an outstanding watching experience.
The Hong sisters never fail to give us the most unique, entertaining stories and characters, with the most disappointing pacing and ending. Let's hope they do a better job in season 2!
Subtle but deep, stylish but emotionally raw, slow-paced but volcanic passionate, this is the magnetic, intoxicating love story between two broken people. Kudos to Park Hae Il and Tang Wei's excellent performances and their dazzling chemistry, the brilliant music score and the well-knit neo-noir script. After all, Park Chan Wook never fails to deliver poignant films.
I didn't expect that I'd love watching Ma Dong Seok's scenes with his adorable niece more than him kicking some asses here and there! A quite predictable story that was presented in a very heartwarming, funny and adorably cute way :) A perfect family weekend watch!
Though the story was rather poorly written and very much predictable, the nostalgia feeling, the fantastic cast (thought their styling could have been so much better!) and the fact that nobody took themselves seriously and had a great time filming it, made this an enjoyable watch. But, to be completely honest, I would have enjoyed anything with Yoo Ah In in it!
A quirky, funny, heartwarming (and delicious) food/romance drama, describing the everyday life of a cute mangaka while searching for inspiration about her stories.
Dark, perplexing and compelling, with a plot-twist that I didn't see coming... Brilliant use of colouring and music, superb performances from Suda Masaki and Nakajima Yuto with such demanding, challenging roles.
This is definitely not a typical body-swap case! It's a dark, mature and rather heavy psychological character-driven story, a bit confusing some times, with some pacing issues here and there, but Ikeda Elaiza and Yoshizawa Ryo's great performances made this a very interesting watch.
A weekend re-watch, just as hilariously funny, cult and entertaining as the first time I watched this years ago! So many happy memories... That killer landlady will always be a legend!
An intense, masterfully crafted psychological, character-driven story. Heavy on the dialogues, with a nuanced depiction of the leads' complex relationship, and superb performances from Chiba Yudai and Nagayama Kento.
Re-watched after 3 years, and this time it was more quirky and entertaining! Not your typical zombie movie... Zany, wacky, hilarious and ridiculously amusing. Don't think too much, don't try to find a reasoning and you'll have a great time!

Why Itagaki Mizuki is still the SML in this kind of movies is beyond me...
