Ms. Purple

About a girl who works in a noraebang and the struggles that kind of environment brigs with it. She is also balancing being the full time carer of her father. A harsh look on the burden that life can sometimes bring on people. I thought the film lacked a bit more development and substance which could have improved it.

This film really has some standout and profound moments, exploring familial dynamics, death, and autonomy. Crystal Lee's acting is really stellar and the film is very beautiful. There is even some very nice humor thrown in to lighten the intense themes of the movie. However, there was some questionable writing and dialogue that felt like it threw off the tone of the movie, at times. Overall a very solid picture that explores some very important topics.

This movie has been on my to watch list for a few months. i really didn't think it would be great but i was way wrong. a very powerful story with an incredible actress that makes you cherish the things you have. A very common story in asian families to take care of your parents yourself opposed to putting them in a home or hospice. it shows the burden on family and the guilt that comes with it.

I'm very glad I saw this movie. It gives a very lifelike and unique glimpse into the lives of a regular brother and sister who are dealing with a difficult situation. This is exactly the kind of movie that I like. It feels so real and so relatable while also letting us see some people from a culture that may be slightly different than our own.

It really shows just how similar we are all while at the same time being unique. This film has the power to bring people closer together. Koreatown is not that far away from the homes of a lot of the people who will view this beautiful film. And yet this gives us a chance to see it from a new point of view, to see how different it is and how similar it is at the same time. How similar all the people are. The acting is wonderful, as are the directing and the story. Highly recommend.

The writing, directing, and cinematography are fantastic with a beautiful score as the cherry on top, but the acting can be lackluster at points bringing the over all experience down. The acting is good at parts, sometimes great, but when everything else is at it's a game, the acting sticks out like a sore thumb. Over all, really well executed. I do recommend.
