Innocent Thing (2014)

Achei bem intenso

Genteee que loucura que é esse filme.

Parece uma história onde simplesmente teremos um professor e uma aluna se envolvendo mas não, acaba que mais tarde vamos conhecendo camadas mais complexas dos personagens.

A que nível chega a obsessão de uma pessoa?

Não é um filme açucarado, a luxúria, a traição a obsessão estão ali de forma nua e crua.

A primeira parte do filme eu estava ali tendo repulsa de ver um professor se envolvendo com uma aluna e da segunda metade pro fim me arrepiando com o caminho mais sombrio que a história tomou.

Terminei o filme me perguntando o que foi realmente real e o que foi ilusão.

Não é um filme que eu assistiria novamente, não porque é ruim, mas porque achei bem intenso.

O elenco entregou tudo com essa atuação, são poucos os personagens que o compõe, ou seja, os que estão ali eram obrigados a nos manter ligados a história e foi o que aconteceu, pra mim a que mais se destacou foi a Jo Bo Ah, ela entregou tanto nas expressões e ações de sua personagem que era impossível não ser uma personagem
marcante.

This movie does not turn the way you think it will, definitely a nice surprise. The acting in the movie is top notch. Jo Boa really surprised me, I didn’t think she could act. Jang Huyk was the reason I watched and I’m glad I did- I could watch him all day! This isn’t the best role I’ve seen him in but it’s a great range he gets to show in this movie. If you’re a fan, you should watch. The twists in the movies will definitely keep you on your toes and the ending feels a bit weird- I wasn’t sure how to feel about it but overall it was succinct storytelling.

Innocent Thing is a movie about an obsessed lover who doesn't take rejection well. So we know the ending. However everything else is a somewhat refreshing take on the tragedy. Our main characters are a school PE teacher and a student of his. The third party is Seo-Yun, Jong-Gi’s pregnant wife. Without going too much into spoilers, the film starts off soft and tender, even giving us a touching first meeting between our two main characters. Everything is going sweet with Jong Gi, who is somewhat resistant to the relationship but gives in, and Young-Eun. Young-Eun is a normal child with a crush and she's a bit open about it which starts rumors and the film begins to head in a dark territory. And it's not just Young-Eun who does terrible things, Seo-Yun, desperate to keep her marriage and dignity intact, begins malevolents deeds herself. That's the kicker. Surprisingly we are left with a non-so shocking moment but with an interesting and unusual emotion. The final showdown showed someone who was misguided and in clear need of help rather than someone who's just crazy. You could feel sympathy for Young-Eun despite the crimes she commits before she meets her end. It's an interesting feel that manipulates our emotions well enough. The red herrings are well placed with other characters and shocking reveals that reshape what we previously thought we saw.

Jo Bo Ah as Young-Eun captures what I previously mentioned well. The character goes through many different steps from innocent, vindictive and sympathetic. Jang Hyuk is as solid as always.
