Chim-muk

A rich man takes a life risk to save his teen daughter from murder of his new girlfriend... The movie has good plot and twists... Nice dark tone photography.. Must watch movie..!

This is one of the best movies I have seen in the last few weeks. Excellent plot, well-paced (I am not sure why some reviewers were considering it slow, were they expecting an action movie???). I watched with with increasing interest from beginning to the end and haven't felt bored for one second.

Absolute fan of korean movies and this one goes into my favourite lists. A moving tale of love, hate, tragedy with a dash of mystery. I won't divulge anything.

Choi min sik just can't take eyes of him, continues to amaze after so many years.

Loved it..

Pros:

• Great plot twist
• Everything will be explained at the ending

Cons:

• It is so slow I dozed off about four times but still could catch up with what's going on.
• The environments filmed are extremely dark and possess low lighting. This goes on for the majority of the movie. It makes the whole film seem extremely depressive and gloomy. Can be unsuitable for people who are not comfortable with low lighting filming.
• The movie lacks engaging content. Be prepared, if you were to watch the movie, to completely wander off or start to daydream because this movie is almost 90% of silence and just cameo around characters.

Conclusion:

• It's recommended that you catch this if you're experiencing insomnia. It will help you sleep better.

This film's weak point is the seemingly predictable slow place. A presumptuous viewer, like myself, would draw conclusions and either walk-out or doze off. The script, for the most part, simply lacks engagement. Luckily I sat it through. What'll seem to be a stupid plot will prove otherwise if you can summon the patience until about the last 10 minutes. Despite a very good performance, Choi Ming-sik still needs to find a script with a Korean director (or otherwise) who can tap into his reserves, of the likes of past reminiscent performances, which we saw in Old Boy, I saw the Devil, Failan, etc. I still remain a HUGE fan though!
