Three Extremes (2004)

Duration: 121 minutes. (Nordic DVD edition)

This movie was different, it contained 3 movies, the first one "dumplings" was so discusting, second movie was better but still somewhat lame, it was called for "cut" and was in korean, the third japanese movie was best of them. "box".

The movies was so slowgoing and not as much horror I was expecting. Oh well.

Colossal (2016)

Cloud Atlas (2012)

Duration: 172 minutes (Nordic Bluray edition) 


Fantastic movie, but it felt a bit too long, interesting story when mixing 6 different stories that everything has the same plot. But 172 minutes is about way too long for a movie, I understand that 6 stories takes time to tell so you can understand the movie.

Rating 4 of 5. 

Directed by: Tom Tykwer, Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski.

Note: Korean wasn't  spoken that much but still it was there!

하녀 (2010) (English title: The Housemaid)

Duration: 102 minutes (Scandinavian DVD edition) 

A sad movie, about a housemaid where the man of the house makes the new maid pregnant, from there it's just downfall with everything. Korean movies tend to end different than the american movies do. You have to watch it to understand. This movie though was nothing special...

방황의 날들 (2006) Enlish title: In Between Days

Duration: 80 minutes. (Cinema Åland (Peoples Cinema))

A kind of odd movie, strange and slow going. Not at all my type of movies, but as I am learning Korean too so that's why it still was worth of watching. This movie didn't have any music at all, the only sound it got was the background noise of a city. No, it was not my type! Mostly focused on Aimie's relationship of a stupid (in my opinnion) guy!!!

째째한 로맨스 (English title: Petty Romance) (2010)

Duration: 118 minutes. (Korean HD-TV edition)

Interesting and stupidly fun movie! It is all about a comic artist and an unemployed sex columnist who are trying to work together in order to win a lucrative comic-book competition. The sex columnist girl is way too stupid and ignorant almost in everything, she copy text to her own articles from other magazines :D Might not the best Korean movie but it works.

아저씨 (2010) English Title: The Man From Nowhere

Duration: 119 minutes (Korean Bluray) 

Comment for this movie: Interesting movie, sad and kind of brutal... Might a bit too long for my taste but still good. Extreme great sound editing on this one. A man from nowhere, a quiet person cares about a little girl from his neighbour, that's just all, but as expected, everything goes wrong when stolen drugs gets in wrong hands...

박쥐 (2009) English title: Thirst

Duration: 133 minutes. 

(This was the TV version. Scandinavian version on Canal+ First) 

Somewhat weird movie, it's obvious that who directed this one is not a christian, many religious flaws :D Interesting still, a priest that becomes a vampire by a experiment. And there is a huge love story involved, quite dark and colorless movie.

Rating 4 of 5.

Comment I left for this movie was:

Too slow for my taste! The story was really sad. But the downside of this movie was that it was too slow. You could tell this story in 30 minutes without left anything unsaid.

Oldboy (2003)

Duration: 120 minutes

Comment I left for this movie was:

What a fantastic sick psychological movie. It was pure awesome. Best movie so far. It was sad, made me angry, also made me feel hopeless. I love this genre, when madness is as usual as light on daytime. Also the music in this movie was so perfect. So nice, Koreans do know how to make movies. Superb.
