Review of Friend

Friend (2001)
9/10
Best movie I have seen this weekend. And I have seen 12 of them.
4 March 2002
Epic tale of paths that diverge only to be reunited again at some critical moments, "Chin Goo", our "Friend" was a blockbuster at homeland Korea, and one can tell why. The story is attractive: the choices that four friends take on their lives, and the way we end up paying dearly for our mistakes and weaknesses. The construction is somehow western, which has attracted the audiences, all I can say is that I have not seen this movie, but felt it within me. Great comic timing, moving and powerful moments, great, great, GREAT actors, and master directing by an emerging director, Kwak Kyung-Taek, which shows signs of great potential in the future. Loved it all the way, hope to get the DVD as soon as possible.
