Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
capo-365-829602 People compare this movie to recent comedies, made in the states which are far inferior. This is one of the best, if not "the best" comedies in this genre of Porky's, Animal House, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, American pie, etc... It's made in Korea during their height of their filmmaking. The scenes are powerful, laugh out loud funny, and fast. The acting is natural and the comedic rhythm is fluid. The gags are exaggerated at times, but completely satisfying. The change in mood towards the end can almost bring you to tears, which is impressive for a movie that can make you laugh harder than most. It manages to cover the entire range of human emotions disguised in a silly premise. This is superior filmmaking on all levels. It is a story told many times, told better. High art, disguised in a commercial medium. I love this movie. Tonight I watched it for the fourth time and it is just as entertaining and touching as the first time.
Daniel Vazquez Having watched a number of Korean films over the years, I got hold of this film assuming that in spite of its raunchy title and subject matter there would be little sex, nudity and grossness. Boy was I wrong! This makes American Pie look like children's TV. Sperm sandwiches, masturbating burglars and anal intercourse slapstick mean that the first half of the film is actually very funny. But like other Asian comedies, a light-hearted beginning leads to a serious second half designed to make the conclusion cathartic.The film begins with Lim Chang-Jung as a student returning to university after completing his military service. Upon his return he falls in love with one of the cute girls in the university, but she only has eyes for the rich boy who oozes superficiality. Nevertheless Lim Chang-Jung befriends her and tries to help her deal with the difficulties of having a superficial, snobbish boyfriend. It is those scenes where he tries to be there for her that totally change the tone of the film. The serious issue of an unwanted pregnancy is dealt with in a way which is very touching and believable, even if there are certain scenes which are over exaggerated (Lim Chang-Jung getting hit over the head with a hammer in the aerobics competition is ridiculous).There is an element of fantasy in this film, but perhaps it is more from the female perspective. The man who dedicates his life to make a woman happy and is willing to make extreme sacrifices for her sake seems like the type of ideal man in Sex and the City.
Dengarr Really cool intro that gets you into the whole humor thing. The whole movie is based on the same kind of stuff you'd expect from American Pie... but its just way better! No hyped movie, just plain fun!The film style is really nice, great camera work on the intro and it even has a good message to all the egocentric people who don't think about stuff happening after making love.We always have movie nights at our place and this movie just made the evening :), normally its just watching movies and just paying attention while not really watching a movie but this flick different. Even now (2 months later) my friends still talk about it when we have a movie night.Overall a great movie, Perfect for a movie night with friends! Just go check it out when ever you feel like a comedy movie!Tom, 5 November 2005 (1:47)
danspag15 This movie is just plain hilarious....it is like american pie but much better. Like NetFlix said, the abortion thing at the end was really weird and tacked on, but if you used to asian movies, ya you see it alot. The movie is only an hour and a half long though, so its pretty short but great! The jokes in the movie are the best part, and they will make you laugh, and they are much more orginal then the jokes made in american pie... like i said before the abortion thing was the only bad part If your looking for a great forgien comedy deffenatly check this one out, you will not be dissapointed 8/10
