Gisaengsu: Deo geurei (2024)
Better live actions than the Japanese version.
This is the Parasite Pandemic idea from Japanese Manga that occurs in Korea. The actions in the show are more hardcore and breath taking. It's kind of spin-off from the Japanese Live action movies (Part 1 and 2) that were remade of the actual Manga story line.
This series is the whole new story. I like it somehow but not so much as impressed as when I read the original Manga. Probably because I knew the main plot already.
The ending seems to open the possibility to Season 2 with the Protagonist of the Japanese version shows up to join the Grey team. Maybe there will be more interesting plots in Season 2 hopefully.
Spoiler alert....
BTW, I think it's plot hole what the Grey leader lady always use her cut-off ear. She showed that her ear was gone by her infected husband.
To me it makes no sense why half transformed head with one blade of Su-in can win all the full transformed head with 2 blades. This was explained by the infected woman, the sister of Kan-woo. Still it make no sense for me though. The speed of all the infected guys look the same for me. And the director did not visually show this either.
Anyways the show's still worth to watch.
Knock at the Cabin (2023)
No twist just straight up storyline.
I'm disappointed in this film by M. Night who has been creating film with twist for a long time. But in this film is just straight up storyline. There are some second thoughts about whether or not it's true as the 4 say all along the story. But it's getting clearer from the last half of the film that it's true as they say. No Twists added that will impress and incept any ideas. Batista is this film is the sacrificing hero.
There are some confusing of how the 4 come up with the Tools or the Rite for sacrifice. Their visions just show only the tragedy will be happening on earth. No reference or explanation about this. Why the tools, the rite and the targets? There may be some religous believes about these but, for general audiences, I believe less people could understand them.
This film is all about psychologially thrilling of what is gonna happen next. And "what if" all the 4 say may be wrong as the targets said. I personally enjoy the thrilling concept and the acting performance. But still no Twist in M. Night films is just soulless.
This is just my personal feeling about this film. But I also read about others's feelings as well.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)
Impressive but one bit that bother my feeling.
This film brought good feeling about family and the impression of MCU. I like VFX in the films. Looks amazing.
But one thing that bother me is the film shows how much Shang-Chi's Dad loves him but why his dad hit him to the bottom of the lake and left him died there? His dad did not trying to pull him up or sort of at all. Is this how his dad loves him?
Malignant (2021)
The plot is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
This film plot is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. But in a more horror version. The twist is good idea but easy to predict once you figure out who is the mysterious guy. Still impressive for James Wan's craftmanship.
Free Guy (2021)
I enjoy the comedy in this film.
This film is sort of fantasy sci-fi about lives in the popular online game. A lot of gags in the film broke my jaws. Nice twist. CG in the film is high end.
Kol (2020)
Twisted to the worst scenario.
Mainily the plot is pretty much the same as Frequency in.2000 and another series with the same name in 2016-2017. It's time travel through some sort of signals like radio waves.
This movie is good until the ending seems to be too much evil power for the bad guy. Everything the good guys try to solve the problems will be ruined by this evil power of time travel to brin back to the worse scenarios. Until the final part, the bad guy still could do such things. There is no point in watching this kind of movies since this will turn down the audiences and left only depression rather than impression.
So I don't recommend to watch this movie for whoever in the sad mood. You may commit suicide if you experience something bad in your life and can feel like there is no turning back in the end. What a discouraging film I have ever seen so far.
Ni hao, Li Huanying (2021)
This is all about love of mother.
The plot might seem to be generous like time travel. But the twist of the impressive moment is at the final part of the film. This really shows how much love of mom to her child in the classic environment of Chinese culture.
That's probably why this film got so much income in China.
Chernobyl (2019)
This is the true horror I've ever seen.
This show really scares.me rather than the shows with creepy ghosts. The real horror that has been created by human science. No need for supernatural or paranormal things. Just the aftermaths of the scientific artifacts.
Really recommend to watch twice for better understanding all the fine details.
Ghost Lab (2021)
Unreasonable plots and twists.
This show focuses on twists. But it cannot make senses for the reason that causes each twist, especially the last twist.
And this show is just story telling. I was not feeling anything impressive except frighened with the loud noises just like in the usual horrors.
VFX is also another thing that turns me down.
The name of the show is Ghost Lab which is the same as another one in 2009. But this would mislead audiences' expectations for this show.
**SPOILER ALERT**
Why would the ghost guy that tries to kill the "bad guy" try to save him in the end? WTF of this twist? Just to make happy ending story? STUPID plot.
Tenet (2020)
Good to watch at home rather than in theatre.
This film is good and masterpiece but too complicated to watch in theatre. Especially the scenes with 2 time flows counterpart. These scenes look cool though. However they are not easily understandable.
Chalard games goeng (2017)
Fake Genius
Maybe I expected too much from the film. But the story is not reasonable and unbelievable. Performaces are not natural and pretending Hollywood.
