Don't Click (2012)

Currently I started to watch Joo Won movies and dramas, so couldn't missed "Con't click".

I like horror movies not just the scary part but also the story behind the ghost/monster or whatever. This movie is about how internet gossip can wreck someones life, it's about revenge and remorse.

The story fits modern times, when we are always watched by everyone and everything like CCTVs, mobiles phones, webcams etc. Story of the ghost was fair, not very good, actually very typical, if you usually watch this type of movies, you won't be very surprised while the story develop. But if you don't I think you can enjoy this movie. Actually it gave me goosebumps couple of times.

As for the acting, sadly Joo Won is not main character in this movie I think he's role is more of supporting one. Kang Byul is the main character and her acting skills were amazing! She was so crazy insane with fear, her panic attacks were scary as hell, much more then the ghost itself. Sister bound was truly well captured, I really liked Park Bo Young performance as well as a protective big sister.
Great background instrumental music were nice fit with the story.

Overall, I don't think I wound re-watch this movie, it's not as good as I thought it would be. I don't regret watching it, cast did a great job. Well try it if you like.

Don't click is aptly named -- you really shouldn't click and watch this movie.

It is a horror movie that takes from others (The Ring) and tries to modernize the whole "cursed tape" theme. While I applaud the effort - it is essentially a whole film of a bunch of schoolkids running from a cctv camera.

The characters act as they would in a horror movie: completely illogically and "I feel like dying today"ily - which makes for some rather hilarious scenes.

The motive behind it all is pretty shallow, and the moral of the story being: "Don't say mean things on the internet! The internet is a bad place!"

It is an un-scary yet quite hilarious "horror" movie.

Hmmn, where should I begin? I have such mixed feelings about this film.

There are three major good points and three major bad points. I'll start with the bad points first.

Bad points: Story, Ghost, Timing.

Let me start off by saying first and foremost, that this story was lacking big time. And the reason for that is the motive of the ghost. I was honestly expecting something much more deep and complex. I suppose the writers thought family bonds were enough of a motive, which in some cases they can be; when there is more development. There are some scenes that especially confused me; I couldn't tell if there was possession going on or just crazy delirium. Both of which don't make a lot of sense with the storyline that was chosen. To top it all off, I feel like certain scenes were timed pretty badly and cause a lot of plot holes all in the name of building suspense. (Which didn't work.)

The good points: Acting, Music, Filmography.

Now to the good stuff~
The acting in this movie was totally on point. The way the actors portrayed their characters was just awesome, especially Kang Byul's acting. Her character switches behaviours frequently in this film and the actress keeps things interesting with each new behaviour that arises. Honestly, I have to say her character's behaviours were quite scary; scarier than the ghost as someone has already stated. Those crazy and odd behaviours that portrayed, when paired with the music and off balance camera angles, always had me on my toes. I kept expecting jump scares to happen, which threw me off for when there was an actual jump scare. It gave me chills occasionally and the way the camera was angled, made me feel like the characters were being stalked in more than one way which gave a pleasant element of creepiness.

All in all this was not a favourite movie choice, I personally felt like it was a slight waste of time and could have been done so much better. There were too many plot holes and things that weren't expounded upon enough to give a clearer picture or to make things more interesting. The end of the movie just left me feeling like: meh.

Don't Click means Don't Watch..
Okay, maybe not because everyone's taste is different. Some might see this as a work of art while others, like me, wish it didn't exist. Lol

I've actually watched this movie a few times..... because i keep trying to find the point, reason, SOMETHING as to why this movie is what it is.... but there is nothing. It's still confusing and makes zero sense imo.

It's pretty much if you ordered the Ring off wish. That's what i feel like this movie relates to. Lol. Least the Ring had a back story and reason. Still not sure why this happened in the movie, unless they did explain it and i blinked..... every single time. Lol

This was the biggest let down because this could have had a lot of promise.
