Taegukgi, as you know, is the foretelling of the korean war between the North and South. This film goes into a deep understanding between 2 brothers that have lost ties to one another due to war. However this film is very special. Special in that you are literally able to feel the emotions conveyed in this movie(props to the actors for this ^.^) You can see the passionate and tragic stories of not only 2 brothers but the Korean people as they were in the war. This movie will be eye watering for some and painfully sad for many.

Things that i Liked:

- The actors were able to truly convey their feelings towards the viewer/audience exceptionally well.(Especially to me T.T)

- Although the music is sad and painful it really is amazing to listen and fell how well it matches with this film.

Things that I hated:

- Being a war movie don't expect it to be all smiles and kisses. Be prepared! (I know I wasn't T.T)



Overall Taegukgi is truly amazing and it is a must watch for anyone that enjoys watching movies. This film will make you a different person. If not then you will get very emotional T^T

First off, if you like to watch action packed movies full of suspense then don't wait and watch this right now! ^.^

However if you still need a reason or as to why you should watch this movie then keep reading. This movie is truly amazing and will make you fall in love with the main character. Throughout the entire movie he is cool and calm. The music is intense and calm when it needs to be. The story is pretty original. So, in a nutshell lost girl and guy comes saves him, but there is just so much more than that.

Things that I liked:

- The Main character is truly the main attraction. He is an upholder of justice with a cool and calm attitude

- The action combined with the story make you more excited than ever

Things that i hated:

- This movie is for the mature audiences(noted)so, there are scenes where you will feel that humans are truly trash.



Really though, I recommend this movie to anyone that truly wants to watch an action packed movie filled with an amazing main character and suspense filled story. Actually I recommend it to anyone that wants to watch a great movie ^.^

Virgin Snow at a glance is a love story between a Korean exchange student and Japanese high school girl. However it is so much more than that. Once you start to watch Virgin Snow from the start to finish you are able to feel the chemistry and vibrant emotions produced by both the main characters. Accompanied by music that is very soft like snow to heart broken sadness.

Things that I liked:

- Both the actors were able to convey there feelings not only towards each other, but to the viewers as well(especially towards me lol)

- The music used for this movie was perfect and added into the emotions produced by the actors/actresses

Things that i hated:

- Some of the parts in this love story was predictable(You know whats going to happen next T.T)



Still, this movie fails to amaze me in the way the actors were able to convey there feelings. I thought that this movie was great and I would definitely recommend this to anyone that's a fan of Korean/Japanese Romance Films ^.^

To put it bluntly, I\'\'m disappointed in this film. If this is supposed to accurately reflect the concerns and lifestyle of the average 23 year old female recent college grad, then the media is not far off when they declare my generation to be a petty, superficial, and selfish bunch.

After the climactic fall out between the friends, Yoo Min (Yoon Eun Hye) reveals to Min Hee (Yoo In Na) that she doesn\'\'t know her friends as well as she thought she did. The same can be said for this film: it tries too hard to be Sex and the City, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and The Devil Wears Prada, and ends up sacrificing its own identity. Despite its best efforts, it fails to capture either the life wisdom of SATC, the magic of Sisterhood, and the sympathy of Devil.

Supposedly it\'\'s the friendship among the four women that helps them to weather the storm of conflict. However, I found that friendship to be lacking. The first time we see all four together is at a club where they surround a table of drinks and proceed to bet on whether or not Hye Jin (Park Han Byul) will successfully bed a fellow club-goer. Other than that, the story follows the girls individually, reuniting them for a blow-out argument and then at the end for a rather unconvincing resolution. Apart from shopping and clubbing, the movie gives us no insight into why these four are friends to begin with, and without that, I found myself not caring whether or not they remained friends.

The story is ordinary. The acting is okay (I\'\'m beginning to think that Yoo In Na has fallen into the bubbly, airhead typecast). I can\'\'t recall a single song from this movie. Basically, this is a formula chick flick, written and acted by the book. For a chick flick to resonate with me, it doesn\'\'t have to be unique or clever, but it has to have heart; it has to make me feel something. This one is as empty and shallow as the four friends.
