More Than Blue (2018)

A sorrowful story for a bound to fail romance

Initially I saw this film thinking nothing of it as just some sweet innocent romance, but as I watched farther the relationship between K and cream could of been nothing but an ordinary innocent romance film. What was this film. The way that I sat there and thought… „the man’s needed to grow some“ yet at the same time was bound to this wonderfully tragic romance. The films placating to the sensation of how we can avoid are problems for the sake of others left me with a thought process this is deep to my core and resonates to actions of my own stupid self. How the romance left between the two mains kept me just completely engulfed in thought of sorrow, and love, and frustration. The story while maybe feeling a bit crammed in the beginning will make you feel like and idiot for not truly understanding what it’s setting up. I would sincerely recommend for crying after a late night or hard loss and will keep for later sorrowful nights in my life.

Frustrating

The whole movie is just a hot mess of communication issues. If everyone was more honest with each other it wouldn't have been as bad, but then again the movie would be completely different from start to end if that was the case. I found the whole thing more frustrating than sad.

The acting was great and I liked most of the main characters in general. However the whole plot did not do them justice. I feel like a couple of the side characters could have been brought into the story differently -especially the photographer who was the one character that made me cringe with irritation every time she showed up.

I wouldn't waste your time on this one. The Korean one I felt was better, but I think if I re-watched it after seeing this one I may knock my rating down a star or two just because I realize the plot in general is not my cup of tea. I prefer honesty even if it hurts momentarily to just living through a lie.

"I underestimated love. I told him that she could be tougher than you think. She will do fine even if you're gone but I was wrong. The love in their point of views is based on each other's happiness

Before I dive into the film, I found out that this is a remake from 2009 of the same name with Lee Bo Young, Kwon Sang Woo, and Lee Bum Soo. I haven't watched the original one but I'll probably will sometime.

This film left me with bittersweet feeling (mostly bitter but not the extent that I hate it); I didn't cry throughout the whole film, I guess I just felt sad about it but not to the point I cried my heart out; there are times when I thought the characters are selfish and didn't communicate well. There are thoughts of what if; what if she just talks to him about it or what if he just admits it to her because maybe they could have more time to talk it out but I guess that's just a wishful narrative of mine. The characters always say they are each other's family but if they are really a family, they could have talked about it and maybe one of them could be saved but we can't deny the character's background as the side characters understood that both of them connected with their loneliness that rather they wallow into it,they facade it with happiness and they became each other's savior during that process.
