For a movie with so many big names in the cast, " Homme Fatale " was disappointing.

The story had potential and there were moments where it was really, really good, like towards the ending with that dramatic scenes, which had some great performances too. However, the presentation of the story was off. The camera work was odd, with the lighting of the settings sometimes too natural for a movie. There were some scenes that moves too fast and others where the action happened off the scene.

I watched this movie after watching #theredsleeve which in Lee Jun-Ho tour de force and whilst it's clearly not in the high budget stakes, it offers a really interesting storyline. All I can say is that it's like he's wearing the shoe on the other foot and the issue of his birth is still central to his happiness. It was well worth the watch and deserves much more than a 6/10 overall rating for sure!!!

Actually its good to see a film that doesn't take itself too seriously. The idea of a male. Gisaeng leads to some good moments and mostly funny humour. His 'secret' that women want to be listened to seems worth making and his romance is sweet. Enjoyed it.
