Miss Granny

Excellent acting by lead actress.

Surprised to see rating 7 for this movie, this movie deserves atleast 8.

Brilliant screenplay, kudos to the director

Another clever story from South Korea that would resonate with most Americans. Clean and funny. Musical numbers are listenable. Storyline somewhat raises the difficult question faced by so many families: Are retirement homes really the best option? The story went several unexpected directions, which will keep viewers guessing about the ending. While there are a few plot holes near the end, they get buried and forgotten by several really huge waves of emotion.

I have just come home from the 2015 Korean film festival here in Budapest, and I want to tell you this film was a resounding success. It had everything and more: good story, creative script, good music & songs, good acting, good pace, hilarious humor. Already in the first 2 minutes it conveyed such a heart-felt lead-in that I knew I had made a good decision to give it a try.

All throughout the movie the audience - including me, of course - had a ball! We breathed with the film, laughed our guts out and simply marvelled at the freshness and at the style of the dialogues. I think I want to travel to Korea to see whether they really have such lively relations to one-another, way beyond the virtual emptiness we experience not-so-rarely in the western world...

To sum it up, this movie is a must! My rating: 10/10. Period.

Miss Granny was a great idea that was implemented in a very watchable way. I wanted it to last longer because the story really drew me into it. Eun-kyung Shim was convincing in her role as a young granny. I'm not sure if she was singing or lip syncing but the voice had impact and was a pleasure to listen to.

I, as usual, love how korean movies incorporate good writing, whatever the story is. And Miss Granny adds one more aspect to it: cuteness.
