Along with the Gods: Les 49 derniers jours

The plot was strong and connected ,, proceeding with saving the soul of Kim Ja-hong during a long trial of 49 days ... and introducing the side story of the kid and the grandfather and their protector was a bold smart choice ,, and finally we know the truth and connection between the trio "Gang-rim, Hae Won-maeg and I Deog-chun" ... It was literally near perfection, the cinematography and visual effects were spot on ,, and even the script had more action than the first movie it still didn't lose the emotional dramatic part.

The cast was even better than last time ,, they now get along "in away" and you can feel the banter and back and forth comedic lines flying :D .

The final two scenes in the credits were amazing and shocking and a possible open gate for "finger crossed" a third and last movie to see how the story of "Kim Ja-hong" will finally end :)

After a surprisingly good first movie (with tear jerking story lines); I had high expectations on the sequel. It didn't disappoint me but it's not as good as the first one either. Bad Points: The movie is full of cliche, drama , and coincidences that I am really watching a typical Asian drama movie. Seriously, almost all characters in the movie are connected to each other somehow with the little twist and there. In addition, this movie didn't develop the side characters really well. I understand the sequel focus is on the three guardians and their past but somehow the side characters which supposedly have major roles are sidelined and seems to exist to cater to the major story line. It's not very bad as they still have their moments, but I am just disappointed on this part of the movie.

Good Points: Cliche and drama moments aside, this movie carries a great message that it suppose to give to audiences; human values and forgiveness. I mentioned previously that I am not disappointed because this movie still gives out a great story line despite the cliches. If the first one gives u heavy water works, then this sequel gives u deeper understanding on forgiveness and human sins. The visual is great ; and the acting here is amazing which blends with the great story line.

Conclusion: This movie is great if you get pass all the typical Asian cliche drama because it got great story line, promising premise which can set a great universe , good settings and great acting. It might not be as great as the first one, but it's still a great movie to watch.

The second movie of the Along with the Gods series was entertaining, but not as good as the first one. Whethere the first one was backed with emotions and twists, this one was just a good movie about two things, the trial of the last movie's lead's brother and the past of the three grim reapers massed up in the story of a young boy and his grand father. The story about the boy and the background story on the three main characters were interesting and kind of sad. The trial part, however, failed to impress. And when all the stories came together, it was a quick and awkward mass up, concluding everything so we could move on to the next chapter about the othe soldier, whose story will be presented in the third movie. I just hope that the last one will be the best one. Other than that, the performances were really well by all the actors in the film and they actually looked natural. The special effects in addition, were decent and enjoyable. So, 7.5 out of 10, because it was a good movie, but it could have been better.

#AlongWithTheGodsTheLast49Days it's much much more than we imagine or predict on this epic sequel, the story developed into something 'bigger' and you'll love the sequel more if you love the first one 9/10 #alongwiththegods2 #alongwiththegods #koreanmovie #movie #Dtkreview #moviereview

One of my acquaintance told me that the second movie is not as good as the first one. I.. disagree. It was heavy, yes. the story was great, a bit predictable but great. the first movie was like a fresh new idea for this kind of genre, but the second movie was like.. WOW If you love the first movie, you'll absolutely wanna watch the second one. Because this movie is the reason, the whole background story for the first movie. you wanna know how it happened, why and who is who. the 'who is who' part was a bit shocking for me :D wow.. it's been 2 hours since I watched the movie, I still have this.. heavy feeling. can't describe how much I love and adore the movies, and how great the story was. It's a must watch. *I knew it all along.. Yeomra*
