2017 Movies

A really really nice film! I can recommend this one to everyone! I have cried my eyes out because this is about a very dark aspect of South Korea's history and when researching this case and connected political decisions and support, I started feeling sick. Nonetheless, I believe that it is important to know history, even when it is heartbreaking and evil. The story itself was also beautiful. It is not a completely accurate portrayal of the relationship between Hinzpeter and Kim and how they went about but the viewer can get a grasp of it (unfortunately, the film's portrayal made Kim more annoying). So, if you decide to watch this film, be ready to cry and prepare some tissues. A well-deserved 9/10.

Oh, I also absolutely loved Kretschmann's acting and portrayal of Hinzpeter. Super unexpected to see him in a Korean film but he aced his role.

"Along With the Gods: The Two Worlds" is absolutely amazing. I did not feel bored or like I had to skip for a second. The characters were all great, the same goes for the acting. I genuinely enjoyed every second. And the film delivered what it promised. I can deffo recommend this heartfelt film to everyone. A well-deserved 9/10.

It's a good and comedic action film that's deffo nice for a casual watch in the evening. However, it is also very mediocre when it comes to action films. The actors were really nice, apart from Yoon Ah's character Min Young. Min Young is so darn annoying lol. I have seen better films but it is still a nice watch. I guess I am fairly neutral regarding recommending the film or not. A 7.5/10.

Such a fun police movie! Ki Joon and Hee Yeol were so funny and actually quite relatable. The film also has quite the bromance. My bestie Aly and I watched the film together and we just loved it! If you like the synopsis, you should deffo watch it because it is certainly worth your time. Also, the actors did a great job and the plot is quite good as well. A well-deserved 8.5/10.

It's a really good gangster/action film. My bestie Aly and I are watching the film series together and we are really enjoying this! I deffo recommend this film if you like action and crime films, as this one is deffo enjoyable! Ma Dong Seok is really cool in The Outlaws (he is always cool)! Go for it! A well-deserved 8.5/10.

A really good crime movie with good twist and unexpected turns! It has been a while since I have watched the film, so I cannot give specific examples (my brain is a peanut so not much space for memories, lol). Nevertheless, if you like crime dramas with some unpredictability, you should give this one a try! I rated this an 8.5/10.

An absolute shit show that doesn't make sense. Some say that sci-fi doesn't make sense but honestly, I have watched enough sci-fi dramas and films that have logic. This one didn't. The characters are not well-written. They don't make sense. I think I would have given this a 4/10 but for the reporter mentor I added a star. The cop didn't make sense. The doc didn't make sense. And honestly, I just felt bad for the kidnapper. Don't watch this. This is a waste of time. One lad in the comments said that he was afraid to watch because he feared that the film would misconstrue what lucid dreaming truly is. Well, he was right. My bestie correctly stated that they used several theories and mashed them together and failed terribly in doing so. Stay away from this one if you want your brain to participate in watching as well.

I honestly do not see the point of this film. None of the characters were really likable. I was not really rooting for anyone but rather for the film to end. The comedy wasn't funny but rather sad because all characters were assholes. Also, I was missing the Fantasy tag. Because that also threw me off. Though, it actually brought a tad bit quality to the film. I do not recommend this film. If you are looking for comedy films, there are waaaaaaay better ones out there. Don't waste your time. A 5.5/10 rating from me.
