You will love this film until the ending destroys it

Watch it! You will love the genius and original storyline. But wait until the ending breaks the whole film. I mean, come on ...! The ending is an important element in the storyline of the entire film where the film is finally finished, before the screen turns off. It is not permissible for an ending to be forced in such a way as to fool and override logic. The audience is not as stupid as they think. Oh yeah, also the concept of timeline is so linear.

Fantastic as long as you switch off when the credits roll

There's a few added scenes during the credits which SHOULD NOT be there, please trust me and switch off when they roll.

If you do, you will have a cracking movie that will have you glued to the set til the end.

Good movie with confused ending

Nicely crafted thriller, keeps on the edge throughout the show. I watched twice to clearly understood the plot. If blink an eye, you will be like me watching again. Acting was fantastic... screen play and direction super. I didn't like the ending, I thought missed the logic. But that doesn't undermine the effort wee bit. Classy run.

I guess the lack of a logical or illogical explanation is to blame.

Definitely an interesting storyline to it and indeed overall a good movie. The highlights here are the lead characters. If it wasn't for the lack of logical or illogical explanation to things... at whatever level, this would be a much higher rating. But still if the intention is to let your imagination create realities of its own, then we'll done. Good one.

Trivia
In 1999, Young-sook says she is 28 and was born in 1972. This is due to the unique age-calculating-system used in Korea. When a Korean baby is born, they already one years old.

Goofs
When the villain, Young-Sook, kills off the father of Seo-Yeon, the latter screams in terror as she sees how he fades away from her life. Yet earlier, when Young-Sook kills the strawberry farmer Sung-Ho, who at the time was having lunch with the parents of Seo-Yeon, they would have been alarmed and cried out in surprise as well, yet that did not happen.
