Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

BA_Harrison Cellist Mi-ju (Hyeon-a Seong) survives the terrible car crash that claims the life of her best friend Tae-yeon (Da-an Park) but finds herself being haunted by the dead girl's ghost.Why waste your time watching all of the Asian ghost films out there, when you can watch Cello, which sums up the entire genre in one easy hit. Vengeful ghosts, freaky imagery, a dark secret, creepy kids, scary phone calls, supernatural deaths—all the staple ingredients are there, along with an embarrassingly uninspired finale whereby events start all over again, trapping Mi-ju in a never ending cycle of horror (yawn!).Technically the film is hard to fault, the whole package boasting stylish direction, solid performances, lovely cinematography, and excellent music, but thematically it is way too similar to countless other previous Asian ghost movies to be a truly effective and worthwhile addition to the genre. And, of course, there's that sucky ending...

thomvic I was quite disappointed with this film and I think it has to do with the fact that it gets a bit confusing at some parts, and the story relies on the same usual formula most horror films go for - that whole psychological twist thing at the end. There were a few scares here and then but it didn't last long, and this film didn't leave me with that scare factor I get when seeing horror films.Cello is about a professor who teaches the cello and has a family at home, where one of her daughters is learning to play the cello. But after her daughter seems to not communicate, a new housekeeper who can't speak is hired and seems to mysteriously appear every time something weird happens, a student who is harassing the professor due to a failed exam - what is happening? I think they added too many things into this film to lead you astray and make you think about what is going on. What was disappointing was the the villain in this film - or ghost wasn't really frightening at all which was bad. She looked like she just had too much bad makeup on that could have been washed away with a splash of water.The ending also was a tad confusing in my opinion so instead of being freaked out, I was more contemplating what had happened and that is not good if you want to scare someone. Storywise also, I think a lot of Asian horror films have this symbolism of an object that is overused a lot - The Red Shoes, Dark Water with that school bad etc. Not to say that it doesn't work but it gets a bit repetitive and I felt that this one has reached it's overuse date.It's a pity because I was looking forward to this one but this has to be one of the letdowns in Asian Horror.

Scott Baldwin (Meven_Stoffat) Actually, checking the "spoiler" box was a tad bit of an oxymoron. There's nothing to spoil really. And actually, right now I'm sitting at my desktop with a dumb, moronic facial expression, wondering what I should type...Instead I'll just go over what this movie has:Mysterious bedtime ghost visitations (The Grudge)? Check. Mysterious Marie-Antoinette-esquire Decor (Strange Circus)? Check. Mysterious haunted recording devices? (The Ring)? Check. Mysterious Long Haired Female Ghosts? Check, though I'm surprised there aren't two of them, which means DOUBLE the aggravation... oh wait... Mysteruious scary noises made by female long haired female ghosts (The Grudge)? Check. Myaterious distorted pictures (the Ring)? Check. Mysterious hands (The Grudge)? Check. Mysterious False endings (The Ring)? Double check.In short, just watch the above movies instead and keep far away from this fragmented craporama.

chrichtonsworld "Cello" is one of the best Korean horror movies I have seen! It sure is very creepy! And it certainly has enough scary scenes to keep you satisfied! The brilliance of this movie is that you don't exactly know when something is going to happen! In most horror movies you can anticipate and predict a scene! Although some scenes seem similar to other Asian horror movies and you think you know what is going to happen the scene goes into another direction! And then out of nowhere something happens! It takes a while to fully comprehend the plot! But once you do you will be surprised even more! Twist after twist and it never seems to end! "Cello" won't be for everyone,since the pace is quite slow and there aren't that many scares compared to other similar horror movies! Personally I didn't mind much because overall the movie is very entertaining and it's conclusion very rewarding!
