Ai kaen seupikeu

This is the tale of the lonely Granny Nah who has earned the nickname Goblin Granny because she has filed 8000 housing complaints to her district office. An ambitious Civil Servant on his first day is confronted by Nah with more complaints and is forced to deal with her due to the reluctance of shell shocked colleagues. The film then proceeds for an hour as a light hearted comedy in which the Civil Servant tries to appease Nah with English lessons so that she can visit her younger brother in the US.

The final part of the film is a drama where we discover that the loneliness of Nah and the abandonment of her family is due to her being a former enslaved comfort woman. These were women forced into sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army in occupied territories before and during World War II. The sudden change in tone due to the dark and emotive subject will leave many viewers confused but it a history lesson that should be taught and repeated when required.

This is a great movie that brings light to dark and tackles that which should never have happened. I fully recommend the film and commend both Moon-hee Na for her performance as Nah and Lee Je-hoon as the Civil Servant.

The acting of the granny was really excellent and she was one who completely takes us throughout the film. Basically the films with true events was really tough to reach audience because it's reality but this film they takes the viewers with curiosity about why she wants to learn English and what's her back history. It doesn't looks like a true story, there's the film won. The concept of the film was so strong and all should know about our history about how womens treated. Interesting and must watch movie.

The story of the movie is based on a true story talking about the comfort girls back in WWII.

The movie presented the plot perfectly and didn't show their cards up until the end where you can realize "Oh that what was these two old ladies talking about" :D

The comedy is fresh, quick and clever ,,, not the type where you fall on your back laughing but it is really sweet,, and what even made me write his is the ending , i suddenly found myself welling up by the heartwarming ending and how the story unraveled itself.

As for the cast, bravo,, both of the leads, the Old lady and the young man who teaches her english were amazing and well invested in their roles,, and sure the whole cast were good too.

Final thought ,, It is highly recommended , watch it now.

The screenplay, editing, directing, cinematography, and production design of the movie "I can speak" are all pretty straightforward, and there is really nothing special. It simply does not worth the overwhelming acclaim it receives. I cannot say it's a bad movie, but definitely a boring movie.

Based on facts, this movie is really good. A very slow moving drama, but exceptionally good.
