Son-nim-eun-wang-e-da

Following the mainstream theme of Korean movies at the moment, Sonimeun Wangida (The Customer is Always Right), plays on revenge and a slightly less than mediocre love story. Also the movie fails when trying to portray the subtle mood... the same mood for which the Korean cinema has become infamous lately. So what gives - why a just below average 5/10? Well the saying - "The Customer is Always Right" - comes with a twist, and the plot carrying it all the way through does it without a glitch. It is th th th... thoroughly thought through. And Ji-ru Sung playing Ahn Chang-jin does his part more than well. The story only having a few characters makes it very easy to follow and impossible not to understand. It could have used a few more characters to pull of a more complicated twist at the end... all in all a little less than average - 5/10.
