Seumool

one of the worst Korean films so far reviewed in 2015. shallow and stupid screenplay that formulaicly depicted three cool-wannabe Koreans young men who proved the ultimate failure under the Korean education system. what we got here are three imbecile-like young men who got no heart, no conscience and no shame for what they did to other people. they are so pretentious, so childishly stupid keep doing immature things that they thought to be cool, yet at the same time only showed their shallowness and heartless cruelty. you could never imagine that young men who already reached twenty would be still so shallow and so stupid. the main actor who played the alpha male moron is one of the worst young actors who never know how to act normally, only by pretentiousness and exaggeration constantly.

the Korean young guys' hairdos are the most incomprehensible myth to me. their hairdo with the front covering almost all the area of their foreheads and thinking that's cool and would make them look more attractive to girls is one more proof how they are so shallow. are all the Korean young guys got scars on their foreheads where the only way to cover those scars is combing down their hairs to cover up their foreheads?

the leading young actor is the worst possible candidate who choose acting being his career, yet almost in all of his films so far, all he did was acted with pretentiousness and exaggeration, not a natural actor with enough acting talent.

the shallow screenplay almost got me sick during the ongoing of this film. what we got was no fun but disgust to the extreme. by reaching twenty years of age yet still decided refusing to become more mature, taking more responsibilities to themselves and treating other people with basic respect only sealing themselves as certified lifetime losers.

the first step not to fall into this category is to comb up their hairs, allowing their foreheads facing their future clearly.

to all the Asian young men trying so hard to imitate these Korean's hairdos/hairstyles: don't do it, cos it only makes you look like morons.

Three male high school friends graduate and spin their wheels trying to figure out how "to adult" and have sex with girls in this light comedy. Reminds me of Dazed & Confused. The guys are immature idiots, guided by poor impulse control and hormones and go through some things to grow up a little bit. There are some VERY funny scenes, one set to the 1970's Harry Nilsson hit: "I Can't Live Without You" that left me weeping with laughter.

Cultural differences aside, the humor is easily appreciated here in America for universal reasons: aimless young men failing to launch and living at home to the frustration of parents, ex-girlfriends of one finding a sincere partner in another which causes hissy fits of impotent jealousy, over-drinking, over-sharing, nosy, snarky younger siblings, and zero ability to brawl.

Short. Lots of fun. Good cast, including Lee jun Ho. HIghly recommend.

This is a funny clever movie about 3 friends of age twenty learning about life and love. Each faces different problems with their relationships. The humor is sharp and witty. Kim Woo Bin is good as the playboy. Junho is good as the one facing family financial problems. Kang Ha Neul is the college guy who falls for the wrong woman. Some may be put off by the explicit sexual references now and then but it's a refreshing change from the too PG dramas. After all movies are where they can let loose,

Look forward to more from this director / writer.

I watch a lot of Korean drama and movies. This one was exceptional to me because of the theme. Three young men is their 20s acting just like their age. Even the script was like life. The comedy was actually funny and the guys were over the top. Completely enjoyed this one.

This film is about three friends in their 20's, who are real losers. A lot of energy is there in the movie which makes it smooth to watch. Friendship is the key plot here, filled with comedy with a touch of romance. Amazing to watch with friends.
