The Korean

The Korean is a movie that requires attention to what is said, action of characters and above all focus. If you have an attention spam of a gnat, don't watch this movie. If you are person who enjoys reading mysteries or fiction books then you will find the Korean interesting. If you are a person who likes things in black and white, clear cut no room for gray areas then Korean is not for you. The use of going back into time is a good tool to explain "nothing is what is seems." There is one scene where the plot seems to drag a little and you wonder if the Director could have shot the scene different. However overall, a good movie, one that on a lazy Sunday or Saturday, watch and enjoy.

The Korean is incomprehensible. And it isn't because it's in a foreign language, unless scrambled is a new tongue. Out of sequence scenes, twists and quick editing might be all the rage for Indy movies. But at some point it has to make sense or be of some interest. Both would be nice, either would help.

The Korean doesn't make sense and isn't of interest. A film can often challenge a viewer with trying to figure out what is happening, but it is the film maker's responsibility to provide the viewer with a reason to care. I got none of the above.

The acting is flat and emotionless. Did it receive awards? I find that hard to believe. Are film festivals just run by the businesses themselves? How can something this unwatchable be getting rave reviews?

Avoid this movie.
