Moss

This movie is enough to keep anyone's attention till end. Though it is a bit long movie, but can't compliant about duration. It will encourage anyone to solve the puzzles and stick with the movie until it's ending. This movie starts with a son arriving at hometown when his father is dead. As time passes, he starts noticing everyone's suspicious behaviours which leads him to believe his father was murdered. To know more about village people and reason of their acting weird, he starts digging in. In this quest for revelation, he almost killed several times. So, what's going on the village? Why they are after him?

after going through a recent love of korean cinema, i accidentally came across moss and found a great film which died out towards it's conclusion. it does have a hefty run time, which isn't a problem, a great film will engulf you and can you forget time.

i won't spoil the story but the characters as likable as some of them are, too much is given away from their direction, it won't be long until characters play to stereotypes and you'll most likely work out the twist.

the protagonist never does anything to make him likable but you do root for him but as the story shifts between him and his father, the quality of the story telling begins to falter. his background is never explored to any detail but his tenacity to find out his fathers killer is portrayed amicably.

the flashbacks are done well but never reveal anything of great importance and the storyline does have areas which set up the flashback to the point it suspends belief at the conclusion. some questions aren't answered and at times the plot becomes convoluted, it's somewhat easier to ignore the property subplot and just assume he's a evil b*****d.

the makeup for some of the characters never seems over the top though it would've been easier to have different actors.

if you can leave your mind in 1st gear and not get caught into some of the details it is an enjoyable film which can never live up to memories of murder but easily better than some of the recent examples of western cinema

This movie about story revolves around the man who try to uncover the mystery behind the death of his father. The movie is unwantedly stretched for 165 minutes without interesting or engaging screenplay. And climax twist cannot be considered as twist at all. There are bunch of logic loopholes which weakened the screenplay. Watch at your own risk..

the movie is about the guy visits the village as his father passed away during this phase he comes to know some real truths about his father he gets suspicious about his fathers death and tries to find out about his past could have been much better the production was not that good according to me the acting was decent the best thing about the movie was the sense of tension that was created if managed properly this could have been a great movie its not too bad but far from great i Acting - 8/10 Story- 8/10 Direction-7/10

Could have been much better, i have seen a lot of Korean and thrillers and this one is far from best

The story is quality and has some decent twists. The action-oriented scenes (there aren't really any actual action scenes) are well-done and entertaining.

There are a lot of flashbacks which help explain what is going on, though it is often hard to tell who is who in the flashback scenes because it seems that different actors are used, if only for some of the characters.

There are a few neat aspects to the movie which are somewhat unique and contribute to its quality.

Most of the actors are high quality and well-cast, especially the two leads. There are some comic relief henchmen who are also quite good.

It could do to be half an hour shorter, though there is not much else to complain about.
