    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • 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
      The post credits scene reveals old Young-sook had called her younger self to warn her she might die, however, she couldn't make the call from the future if she had died in the past. If young Young-sook did survive, then the mother wouldn't blink away from existence, she wouldn't exist to begin with, and old Young-sook wouldn't have disappeared when she tried to kill adult Seo-yeon.

    Another hit from South-Korea.
    South-Korean cinema, it's just the best you can get from Asia. They for sure know how to make good movies and Kol (or The Call for the English title) is one of them. I'm always very sceptical when I watch a movie from Asia, but when it's Korean it's just different, they don't overact like we're normally used to when it comes from another Asian country. And they do know how to write interesting stories. In Kol there's an intriguing plot, one where you have to stay really concentrated to follow as it is a bit twisted, but it's certainly entertaining. The acting was perfect and that from the whole cast. I read other reviewers stating the ending was disappointing and in a way I get it because it causes confusion, but when I thought about it a bit more it wasn't that bad, but it's clear the movie was just one minute too long. That said its another hit from Korea, the list of good movies from over there is getting really long now. I guess I will have to follow director Chung-Hyun Lee as I'm sure he will make other great movies.
