Not terrible but nothing special
Gracelovesmovies10 June 2014
It was alright, something I don't totally regret watching. It is worth watching if you have 2 hours to kill and absolutely nothing else to watch. As with many other Korean dramas and movies,the humor was very forced (e.g. the 2 "funny guys" dancing behind). In my opinion, the main lead was the saving grace of the movie. He played his role well enough, with his air headed laughter making him quite a likable character. I really question the casting of Yuri as the love interest of the two leads though. She can be very attractive, but not with the styling done for her character in this show. While that was necessary since Jung Eun is supposed to be somewhat of a tomboy, the clothes and lack of make up made her look very plain. Of course, her acting is very stiff as well. Her laughter was very cringeworthy. People who listen to Kpop will also know that her singing is not the best. It sounds like her voice was artificially enhanced to a higher pitch, or she was told to sing that way. Either way, the songs in the show were not catchy, the singing wasn't good, and it was cheesy as hell when she would suddenly break into song.

REVIEW:
  • I really liked this movie. The story was simple but it was full of fun and emotional moments. The characters were full of life and they had passion for the things they were doing. It was inspiring to see how much the characters pushed themselves to be the very best in their fields.
  • I really loved the friendship that developed between Woo-Sang, Won Il, Jung Dong, and Dae-Chan. They were a fun bunch and they made the movie a lot more interesting to watch.
  • I love the fact that there was no serious fight over a girl. They focused more on the competition about swimming.
  • Seo In Guk's acting was wonderful. His acting during the carefree moments were very funny. I love that they always baited him into doing something by giving him food.
  • Fangirled over Lee Jong Suk a lot.
  • Also, the cinematography was very good. The places that were shown in the movie were very beautiful. I loved the fact that there was a scene in the Philippines!


SHOULD YOU WATCH IT: Yes. If you want to watch something simple, fun, and inspiring. Plus, Lee Jong Suk <3

Painful overacting
phd_travel4 July 2020
This comedy isn't funny and the melodrama feels forced. The overacting is terrible. Don't bother.

I love Seo In guk
lmerana8 November 2019
I love in guk so him in a trunks is heaven. I like his acting so I am really a partial in this one. The story is simple but I repeated this movie like 5x and I still like it so I give it a 10.

Warning: Spoilers
I rank this movie 9 because I so love it ^_^ . Some may found this boring or etc. but the more you watch it the more you'll love it. I love won-IL his acting is superb (i really wonder how on earth he did not receive any award?) and you can really feel it, he is such an interesting fella you will surely love him. As for woo-sang i love his acting but not as great as that of won-IL (it must be his role or something but i feel he's actions are limited since he must remain with this cool-guy attitude). Jungeun , this girl makes me really interested on the movie in the first place, Kwon Yuri is my bias and I'm looking forward on how will Jungeun develop in the movie. Her acting is great for a new actress she had done well (congrats Yul for winning the award :). And Jungeun had made me enjoy the movie more but i really hope she will be a swimmer! as what i thought when i heard she will join the cast the thing that pops first in my mind is because she can swim well. How come this is not a drama? I would love to see this in a drama so that i will know Jungeun more , and also the lives of the main leads. You will really enjoy this movie its worth downloading :D

Funny, lots of crazy Korean eating and men swimming
benigee1 March 2021
Ok the story line wasn't the best and the side stories weren't great either but as Korean stories go I found it fun to watch and thought the young actors did a fine job. Being a retired grandmother stay safe at home during the pandemic I have become an Asian film/series addict. I have watched a total of 53 and have no plan to stop. Lee Jong-Suk has become one of my favorite actors and he didn't disappoint in this film. This is the first movie I have seen with Seo In-Guk but I found him entertaining and he did a good job with his emotional scenes. Also Kim Jae-young had a small role but I have seen him in several later shows and he has taken on some more serious roles and portrays them quite well. If you are looking for a easy, enjoyable show I would recommend No Breathing. Go ahead. Have some fun.
