Madeo (2009)
a bit disappointed from Joh-ho Bong, but a very good movie overall..
If this had been my first movie of Joon-ho Bong, I would have given it straight 8 or 9, but the truth is, it never even touched the standard set by him in "The Host" and "Memories of Murder". I'm not saying it's not good,but the thrill was gone. Characters and plots are reminiscence of John-ho Bong's previous work "Memories of Murder". Rainy and cloudy weather doesn't support the plot as much as in his previous movies. It can stand on it's own as a very good thriller and it's unfair of me to judge this movie on the basis of his previous work, but I am a bit disappointed. The best thing about the movie is acting by the lead character "Mother". 90% of the time she is on screen, and you wouldn't complain about it.
Boksuneun naui geot (2002)
mind-blowing.....
There are very few movies which you watch kinda knowing what's coming your way, and yet when you are finished, you are upright in your chair. The movie has totally exceeded your expectations. This was one of such movies for me. After watching Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, JSA, Thirst and Oldboy numerous times I was a little skeptical about this movie. My early thoughts were - What more can he offer? I couldn't have been more wrong. Huha cinematography, superb background music and fantastic acting. What more can you ask? Kang-ho Song is as usual at his best. Every movie I have seen of him, he has surprised me. Chan-wook Park is one of the best directors in world cinema today.
Manorama: Six Feet Under (2007)
A nice adaptation of Chinatown(1974).....
I decided to watch this movie because of Abhay Deol only and he didn't disappoint.After initial 10 minutes I already knew what I am gonna get but good acting and some twists and turn (though predictable) kept me going.
The movie is not very fast paced but I liked that as it helps in developing the character of the protagonist Satyaveer from a looser/self pitying to a self controlled/confident/decision maker.
The movie is song less showing the changing trend in Bollywood.The background music is good and not like common Bollywood thriller.
One of the weak point of the movie is narration by the protagonist, but I think that is necessary for common Indian movie goers.There are some plot holes, bad acting and bad dialogs by Sarika but overall you will enjoy the movie.
