Avis à la une
This movie showed why I am a fan of Korean movies: Simple story-line, may be over-used, but very well executed. Some may say that the movie is slow-paced but I find beauty in it because it gave way to focusing on little details (e.g. facial expression, hand movements and other body gestures) which have big impact and lasting impression on viewer's reaction.
If you're looking for a sweet story which reminds of your childhood sweetheart, the one that got away (or you let go of) due to unavoidable circumstance (which I was before watching this movie), then watch "A Werewolf Boy". This is not a horror/suspense movie though, don't expect such things. Just be ready with your tissue box, because this movie will definitely make you cry.
The werewolf story itself was not very believable and one doesn't really know if the boy is actually a werewolf or just an experiment. The 'werewolf' make-up was also very 1950-ish. The director clearly did not spend much time on effects and substituted that for a good heartwarming story. Despite that, this is a touching love story that is funny and dramatic in equal parts, and the genres blend together perfectly. This was a unique film and I enjoyed it. (If you expect werewolf transformations and gore, though, you will not find it here and might want to give it a skip.)

Soon-Yi: Gran, wanna see this?
Older Sun-yi: What a good-looking young man.
Soon-Yi: He is, isn't he?
Older Sun-yi: Does he come from money?
Soon-Yi: I don't think so.
Older Sun-yi: Then just have a little fun and dump him.
Soon-Yi: But he's so good to me.
Older Sun-yi: Be good to him. Men love getting compliments. When you grow up you see things that you didn't used to see. Knowing more might seem good, but it turns you into a coward. It only happens once in your lifetime, and it never comes back.
