Adaptation miserably and bland.
For fans and fans of manga / anime prepare your vocabularies of cursing, because Live Action disappoints.
I hoped this was better than it turned out to be, as the story looked intriguing and the way this movie was based was very popular. However, the result was quite annoying. The story had some originality at the beginning and had funny moments mainly due to the cast very well chosen ... However, most of the events in this film were exactly the same as you will probably find in any other Japanese manga film: the festival, the school fair, the trip, etc. I would prefer the story to focus more on the main character and his journey to move and become a better future. Finally, the love story was fine, it had twists and surprises, but in the end it turned out to be phenomenal crap.

"Close-Knit" is a minimalist film that is almost annoying but good is a work that shows us a mature author who is able to stay true to his style and at the same time tell a story full of interesting themes, with which he finally is confronted with social aspects and personal drama.
Through a stormy and inner story and hypocrisy, the story of "Close-Knit" descends very linearly, concentrating on one side in the figure of Rinko who sees in his relationship with Tomo the possibility of testing his sense of motherhood and to "more about the awareness that perhaps society is not yet ready to fully accept the transgender figure, but above all it is Rinko's portrait of the thickness and depth of the film.
Based on picturesque representations, caricatures and sometimes vulgar, Rinko seems to be an unrecognizable person, with his certainties and fears, with the desire to feel a woman throughout the great test of maternity, although substitute. In fact, the LGBT theme is approached by looking more at the character than in his phenomenology, avoiding the melodrama thrilled and often turning his gaze to tones and atmospheres of comedy.
In short, when dealing with a not so light subject, he can always maintain his balance, coagulating the personal drama with comedy in an appreciable way, managing to create brilliant characters and, fortunately, much more in keeping with reality. The film allows us to see some of the cinematographic features the trend towards minimalism, the tones of peace that integrate harmoniously into a story that has its depth and which, although in its simplicity, thrills.

A very well written and impressive film ...
From narration to performance to performance to presentation: it is perfect in each and every aspect. The change in the tone of the film was extremely well brought. The screenplay is not disappointing, and the film appears as a refreshing and memorable experience. Cinematography is top notch as it does not take much time to present and configure the characters as well as the plot.
Connected  to the characters, the actors delivered extremely excellent  performances, so far as the technical aspects of the film are top notch.  The visuals are breathtaking and the story is well captured by a first-rate cinematography. The  action sequences of the film are another great highlight as they induce  a lot of emotion along with the tension as to what would happen next. The film is not extremely violent and therefore recommended in the family. There is no vulgarity or obscenity in this movie. very good.

The film begins  with Jin-suk's nightmare and naturally goes through a sort of friendly  family, casting mysterious codes, such as a room of doubt, kidnapping  his brother, causing tension and curiosity. Both are  strangely distant from each other, but are double that lead to clues  that will be useful for the truth and reversal of the film to be  developed later.
The first half is immersive. The  secret trick is also reminiscent, the nervous breakdown is the mind of  the person, and it is difficult to take what is reality and what is  fantasy. Above all, the expression and acting of the character that changes moment by moment is the highest point. In  short "Jang Hang Joon" is a medium movie for more, since the elemental  composition that compose it contributes significantly in conjunction  than individually.

Imagine depending on oxygen to live under the command of greedy human beings, what a life is this!? this is the plot.
The CGI, besides being excessive, is horrible. There are some fanservices.
The South Korean series is fairly fast-paced, but isn't particularly interested in whether everything is explained and makes sense. The plot is dyslexic, why would anyone respect the speed limit in the desert transporting rare material in a post apocalyptic world being military!?
Why in a super modern truck the glass is not electric but on the crank!?
Netflix recently signed an investment agreement with South Korea to produce and air more K-dramas. Black Knight is an example of this, people who are familiar with K-dramas know that this is far from being a South Korean production, it is better for Netflix to leave it to those who understand the subject or if it continues to stick its finger in adapting K-dramas in a way Americanized will end up boycotted.

"Afterlife" is best thought of as a kind of thought experience.

The point is not that this can be what we experience after death; It's more that we need to think more about what it is in this life that we would really like to keep with us forever.

This point needs emphasis. When asked what we want most in life, most of us will talk about our career, achievements, maybe something else. This movie suggests that these kinds of things can not, at the end of the day, be as important as some other experiences we might have. Either way, it challenges us to rethink what we really value.

Much of this film is dedicated to explorations of the lives of a number of fairly ordinary people, trying to identify their most cherished memories. Some critics have condemned the film as boring. It all depends on perspective. If all you want to see is car chases, sex, explosions, special effects ... Avoid this movie. It's just worth noting that the lives and thoughts of others can help us better understand ourselves, so I recommend the film.

"When Duty Calls" had everything to be an almost "Descendants of the Sun" Chinese version, however the lack of action and military scenes spoiled the context of the drama, for those who watched it saw that the first episodes were fantastic but as the plot uncoiled loses focus and brilliance, down literally downhill, story barely told is the problem, the director did not know how to give creativity to maintain the level of satisfaction required, the novels are weak, the cast though jovial and acting could do nothing with a poorly written script. The soundtrack until it is very good, the narrative was lost and in the end it was a disastrous drama for lack of planning.
