I'm not going to come out of the gate just hating on this show, because honestly, it was a really great show!I understand because it was originally a webtoon, there is only so much room and budget you have to work with. What they had was freaking amazing though!! I loved all of the actors, they did great jobs.
I just feel like the story itself really needs a lot of buffering. It had so much potential.
I really hope that if they get a chance to redo this, I hope they take it and make longer episodes while keeping all of the original cast and staff. I hate that I rated it as low as I did because I feel like this show could be a easy 9-10 for me. I love the idea of everything that was going on, I just feel like everything was rushed and I don't even know most of the characters. Like, I won't lie. Episode 14, I hardly understood.... and that was a CRITICAL episode -- they dropped a bomb on us in that one and just kinda left it at that. Then episode 15 hit and it was all sugar.... and honestly made me HATE a character.
I hate Su Jeong with a passion now. She went from being a really good friend to having crushes to "well since THEY don't like me, I GUESS you'll just have to do". I HATE how she treats Jin Seo. They haven't even started dating and she treats him like shit. "you have to look good" "we aren't dating until I say so" "you don't look good enough to walk with me" -- all this shit is just a few examples of what she has said to him. What the actual fuck. I don't think I have ever went from liking a character to hating them SO FAST!!!! She really played the sweet girl well, only to hide what a complete stuck up bitch she is. UGH!!!! -_-

I saw a preview for this and was instantly drawn in but I felt like everyone I ever saw/heard talk about this movie, they talk about how awful and terrible it was. I can't help but to ask, "WHERE?" lol I freaking loved this movie. Also not going to lie, I mostly wanted to watch this because of my unhealthy obsession with all things Nine Tailed. Don't judge me, we all have our obsessions. Haha. Though -- there weren't many scenes with the nine tailed, this movie really did make me more curious about other movies in this genre. I hope I can find more to live up to this movie, I doubt that will happen, but I have to at least try. Lol
I have to say baby Nezha was my favorite character. Not so much his adult form though. Not sure why I just found baby version adorable and so freaking sassy. I loved it. My second/third favorites were probably the 3rd son (I can't remember his name but if you watch this, you'll know who I mean. and the little grass dude) lol they were all sassy.
While I did love this, I found some of the characters kinda hard to relate to. I feel like if maybe I read the book or looked more into the myth's and stuff behind these characters it would make a lot more sense. That being said, oddly, I still loved this movie a lot. Which is rare especially with a genre I don't really like all that much.
I think League of gods might be a golden egg for me.

I came across this drama when I was randomly looking for new stuff to watch. I didn't expect to really get invested in the story but I have to admit when it started, even though it was wild, I loved the guys passion. LolIf you followed my updates watching this though, you know I hated this show. Lol Okay, I didn't hate the show, but I did hate the females. Nothing pisses me off more than people coming in and think they instantly own everything and do as they please. I can not stand when someone thinks just because they have money to do what they please makes everything okay. When they called the guy's things trash, it really drove me up the wall especially when you see the flashbacks of Tatsuya and his brother Ren. His brother loved the school so much so of course Tatsuya would only feel the same. So for the girls to call things "trash" is like calling his brother trash... even if they didn't mean it that way. I think those that have lost someone close to them will understand what I mean about this.
I wanted to give up watching this show so many times but because I was in so much and the episodes weren't that long, I held in there. Lol plus, I really had high hopes of wearing the girls down. Lol --I feel like that last one would never happen. X_X another thing that kept me going was the hidden gem in episode 6. Lol Gah he was such a asshole in this show. But I was shocked he was in it. I was like "hold up. Is that who I think it is?!" Yes... yes it was. Lol I'm not even mad. XD
Anyway, I digress. I'm not sure how the teachers let the guys school get as bad as it did though. Honestly. It's like teachers didn't exist until they were like "Well... maybe if we put these rich girls in here, they'll calm down .Damn near drove me nuts. Not to mention, I honestly felt like they were the only class in the whole school. Nowhere are other students shown until the very end when the gym is full and I was left sitting there screaming "WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE!?" at the screen. Lol. I don't think that was thought through very well.
I don't understand that ending either. Like I do, but I don't. It was left open to me and I hate open endings. Why did they suddenly start fighting each other? Was this what we were seeing in episode one? I'm confused. Lol But then again, I did sleep between episode 1 and the last episode so I probably missed a lot. Not to mention, they character dropped like crazy through this whole thing. I hate that. I hate not knowing all of the characters and to make matters worse, they were all technically main characters. I couldn't tell you half of their names unless I was looking at the cast preview. X_X
I will say this though, I was right from the start about the co-ing. Lol I knew putting the girls there wouldn't change much, but it did change them. Which I'm glad. They were like heartless robots and it drove me insane but the longer they were around the guys the more they started to seem to let lose a bit and realize it was okay to fight back about things you really care about. As for the guys... well... it was interesting to see them change a bit too. Lol They weren't complete cavemen but I'm glad they kept their passion and fought for what they loved. Am I glad they always fought? No. Hell no. But what can you do? Lol
This show really gave me High and Low vibes though.

I love horror movies and shows. I'm also one of those that DO judge a book/movie/show by the cover (sadly. lol) Though this movie's cover was fairly plain, it still had such a ominous feel to it that I knew I needed to watch it as quickly as possible.Everything about this movie seemed extremely promising. I loved how it started off and even though I hate when movies "character dump", I didn't mind it this time -- eve though there were a lot of characters, they managed to still make a impact that made you remember who they were.
Even with such a limited setting it still managed to have a great storyline and creepy vibe. Though sadly about half way through it seemed to lose that "umph!" for me. It was still enough to keep me curious, and even though so much was happening, I just kinda wanted to zone out. I'm not sure why. But I felt like it needed a bit more.
I loved all of the actors acting and I really thought I had the "king" pegged from the story but I actually wasn't expecting that outcome. Am I happy with the ending? Not a bit. If anything, I'm confused. I wish they told us why. Why this person. Why is this happening to them. Just so many questions I still have. Lol
I still enjoyed the movie though.

This was such a quick and interesting drama. While I feel like my emotions and thoughts are still reeling, I feel like I at least need to try to write my thoughts out before I forget them. LolI want to start off with I really really REALLY REEEAAAALLLLLYYYYYY hate homewreckers. They turn my stomach and just disgust me, So while Reina played Kaori very well, I hated her character through the whole thing. If it weren't for that bit, I really would have loved her characters because of how sweet and, oddly enough, pure she was. So I can't be mad that everyone loved her. It's crazy and a first for me to see. It's not everyday everyone knows you are a homewrecker and people still love you to death, and those that meet you will love you as well. It's weird.
I also hated how she had no backbone. There were times when you could see she had a fighting spirit (like when he told her to look at what he came up with without consulting her) --she actually got really pissed but of course ended up liking it.. So... where was that fire through the rest of the show? Seriously? Every man around her did the typical "call the shots" thing, which I kinda hate to say because yes, they were sweet too but.... she is a whole ass person... if y'all missed that memo? She just let them decide her life and there was so many times I would have either slapped or stomped some toes in anger, she just rolled with it and let them decide so much. rwghwleghowsahfgoua GRRRRR it's frustrating. Then again, seems like they did that with all the females. Typical. (I said what I said) *sigh*
Other than that, I really questioned what was going to happen through all of this. Mostly because it wasn't a love triangle... it was a freaking octagon. Lol somebody que up that Adam Sandler song from Wedding Singer "he loves her, but she loves this guy right here and he loves somebody else, you just can't when - and so it goes until the day you die, this thing they call love is gonna make you cryyyyy-I hate you" LOL! If you've seen that movie you know what I mean. If not, Sorry I wasted your time. XD
I'm a sucker for happy endings so I guess that is where it mostly won me over. I mean, I can't hate the acting or storyline either though because no matter what, it WAS a good story and and had a lot of depth. Especially with something so short.
I'll probably update this more later.

When you hear the siren, don't go outside.
Oh man the nostalgia is STRONG!! I remember wanting to play the game this movie was based off of soooo long ago. Sadly I never got to play it very long because at the time it was back on playstation and back then, a invisible scratch on your game could make the whole thing not work --such as mine.So, while I have no idea how similar the movie is to the game, it gave me the creeps just as much as the game did.
I watched this movie many many years ago and I guess because I was a kid, was always confused when I watched it. Lol don't judge, I was a kid and dumb I guess. Hahah But I always loved it anyway. Gotta give props where props is due, it's gotta be a dang good movie to not make sense but still freak me out. (mind you, this was when I was a kid)
Now that I'm older and finally had the chance to watch this again (thankfully because someone reminded me of it!) I knew I HAD to watch it asap. It did not disappoint. Now everything makes sense and is still just as creepy. Lol
Though just as I remembered, it was so freaking dark. X_X That was the main thing I wasn't much of a fan of. Lol At some parts it was like I could hardly tell what was going on. But, you kinda just put the pieces together and hope for the best. Though thankfully later in the movie, the flashbacks are lighter so you can see what happened --which I am so thankful for. Lol
*possible spoiler alert, read with caution*
I will never not question the siren though. Why was the siren a thing and why those kinds of creatures? I know it attempts to explain but I still don't fully understand I guess? Like I know why it is happening but I just don't get why *THOSE*. Would it have ever happened if no one had said anything? Ah so many questions. Maybe I am just overthinking it.
Don't let this sway you though. This movie is really good and I forgot Yui Ichikawa played in this! (insert sobbing) I loved her ever since I saw her in NANA 2. Haha

Either way, I really enjoyed this drama. Short or not, it was put together so well with such amazing actors that I couldn't help but to fall in love with it.
This will probably be the one of the rare times I'll need to come back to a review to fix it because I have to many thoughts and emotions that I need to sort through. So if you read this and are like "-_- wtf is this?" --I'm sorry, I will fix it and give more "review" when I'm sorted. Lol

I know a lot of people always complain about anime/manga to live action, haters always have something to say. But shoot, you try forcing YEARS of story into a 1-2 hour movie and see how you do. Lol The year this came out, it wasn't popular worldwide. The term "weeb" wasn't even widely known yet even though it started a year before. Back then you were still just a "freak" for liking anything different. So tell me how they could get proper funding for a extreme movie like this? Don't hate what you don't understand lol. Anyway, I digress.
I'm so glad they got all the actors they did to play the parts. I don't think anyone else could have portrayed the characters so well. I loved all of the acting and how everything was so on point. Other than NANA, Death Note is another live action movie that always leaves me like "holy crap, they ARE the characters!" then I start questioning my sanity because then I wonder if the characters were based off the people. Hahah. I know I know, they aren't but it's trippy.
I'll never say no to Death Note and I'll never say this is a bad live action. Am I curious if a remake will ever be done (again) and wondering if it will be "better". Times isa changing! Lol I would rush to watch it, that's for sure. Or maybe I'm just biased. Lol
I freaking love Ryuk and L, I'll die loving them the most. Lol I feel like everyone loves L but I don't think any of us could tell you why. Lol As for Ryuk, come on man... It's the apples. Lol It's always the apples.

I have heard so many people talk about how much they really enjoyed this drama and I've seen nothing but high scores from it so I finally gave in and was honestly hooked from the second it started. Even though I didn't like Ra-Ra at first, there was something quirky about her that I adored and couldn't stop watching. I guess I felt like her "ditzy" was an act? I don't know why but either way the more I watched the more she grew on me.
This was the first time I started a drama not liking any of the characters except for maybe 1 or 2 side characters (Like Mr Kim) but by the end of it, even the characters I full out hated ended up growing on me.
I loved the acting! OH MY GAH!!!!!! THE FREAKING ACTING!!! I swear I probably had a checked out look the whole time watching this because it was like tunnel vision -- I didn't see or hear anything else while this was playing. Lol I loved it.
The plot and storyline are a first for me as well. Like part of me knew I shouldn't get to caught up into the "happiness" because I mean come on.... it's a kdrama. Kdramas love their false happy moments don't they? Lol -- anyway -- I got caught up and honestly was not expecting that to happen as fast and as sudden as it did. It actually took me a while to start sobbing because it was so sudden that I was like "Wait, is this happening? This is happening? THIS IS HAPPENING!" lfjgheliughreiugheigguergherge I feel broken. And that very very end left me feeling numb, I literally don't know how I feel about it. I'm angry. I'm sad. I'm a lot of things. Confused mostly though. I wish they had provided a little extra bonus episode or a mini thing to explain exactly what they just hit us with. Because I'm sure every fan of this show that just went through that hellacious roller coaster all feel the same way about it. How can you end a show like that?! I have so many questions!!

Is it bad that I clicked on this because I seen Jay Park though? Haha He was such a baby in this movie. Is there anything he can't do though? He acts, sings, raps, dances, steals your woman - oof. Haha Kidding on that last part.... or am I? Dun dun dunnnnn XD Honestly I felt like this movie somewhat fit part of his life story. Fans will know what I'm talking about.
Okay back onto the movie, there really isn't much to say about it because it wasn't bad but it wasn't... good per-say. I really liked that it told the story about what groups really do go through (even though that was NOT the movies intention). The cast was really amazing and most of the time I forgot it was actually a movie and not a documentary. X_X
The thing is the movie was so choppy. The storyline itself had a lot of gaps and took you for a ride of trying to figure out what the hell was happening. I can't even talk about the end because I sat there the whole ending like: "Uhhh what's happening?" Also there were a lot of times certain characters popped up and you have no idea who they are even though they are supposed to be important to the story. It was a mess. It was a hella mess but I can't rate this any less than 9 stars. No I'm not bias I love the story it told even if it wasn't meant to be the actual story. Lol
Also please know if you watch this there should be a trigger warning of suicide. Which again, plays a huge roll in what Kpop singers and groups go through. It's heart shattering.

I have always remembered Hansel and Gretel being a boy and girl who stumble upon a home, but I have never seen one that had three kids as the Hansel and Gretel part... So I'm not .. really sure what went on there? I mean the Hansel and Gretel played a HUGE part of this movie but it wasn't really Hansel and Gretel if you get what I mean? If you don't, that's okay because I hardly know myself! Lol All the more reason to watch this movie!!!
Even though this movie was released in 2007, it gives such old vibes. Lol I'm not even kidding. When I saw "2007" I was like "....lol wut?" I thought it was made in the 90's. MY BAD!!!! That is not a insult by the way. Have you seen movies from the 90s? They are still bad ass to this day! FIGHT ME!!! (I'm kidding. Don't do that.) I'm just saying, 90's movies can hold their own. Lol
Now the conflicting part will be kinda hard to talk about because I don't want to give to much away. But let's just say this movie is different from the other Hansel and Gretel movies. Let's face it, with the other movies, we know who the actual "bad guy" is in those movies. It's the witch. We want the witch dead and we want happy endings for the kids. Maaaaaan they ....I..... That information bomb they dropped near the end legit made me start CRYING! It was unexpected. There was one character in the movie that I really didn't like and it was the little boy but by the end of the movie I seriously just wanted to hug him and put him in a protection bubble.
All of the actors were so freaking talented. Though there was one that I was like "wow... this dude's acting is really really bad and holy crap he is a creepy fuck" Dude, turns out that is how his character was supposed to be. When I actually found out about the character at the end I went from "wow his acting is terrible" to "holy fucking shit the dude is hella talented!!!" and that is a understatement.
This is one movie I'm sure will be remade in a few years because it's one of those that people can't really keep their hands off of. But, I wish they wouldn't. I feel like I would always compare new actors to these actors. Lol which I know is bad, all actors have their own skills and that is great and all, but there was just something about this cast that just meshed so well that you wish all actors worked that well together.
If you get a chance to watch this movie, please do! And let me know what you think!

Can we talk about the acting though? Like holy crap - can we say skills? I mean come on, Park Sung Woong? You know right off the bat something is going to be amazing if he plays in it. The man has hella skills! Everyone in this movie did though. Not going to lie, forgot it was a movie a few times. Felt like I was entering into someone's life. Wonder if they feel violated... lol I'm kidding but for real, I did enjoy the acting.
Overall, I enjoyed this movie, I just felt like it was missing a lot of information that would probably help people be less confused? I mean when it starts off, it feels like it started in the middle of the movie and while the actors had their own "characters" to play, the characters also had characters to play... which is overload for starting right off with something. The ending was so confusing to me as well.. like who was for real, who was fake? did they both mean it or fake it? I mean come on!! Gotta give me something here! I don't like being confused at all so I think that's why I took as many stars away as I did. I just... confusion, man, I hate it with a passion. It's why I don't read/watch many "mysteries".
I feel like my rating it kinda cruel on that level because you can have someone okay with mystery but still have the same questions I do and they rate it from 8-10 stars. So when it comes to my rating on this movie, please watch the movie anyway if you are given the chance. This is one of the rare times I think I'll ever say "don't pay attention to my rating". Which hopefully makes sense. Haha

I'm not sure why it is labeled a show though, I really do wonder why they did it that way. Either way it is a very beautiful story It had it's fair share of twists and turns and I do admit I was not expecting that ending to happen that way. I was touched and I also cried so hard that my face turned purple.
Y'all know me. I always say I won't watch/read things like this buuuuut I always do and usually end up loving it. So is it really a shocker here at this point? But in all truth, I wish more people would watch this. It's 2 episodes, Zombebes!! Please give it a watch. It's like the perfect amount of drama, love, heartbreak, love (yes, love again) and so much more. Because this was so short though I can't go much into detail but I bet even you will be shocked by the ending. What do you have to lose? Watch ittttt!!

I'm glad I found it though, and so thankful that I did! I know so many people would say this movie was cheesy or not that great but honestly, I loved it. It's a little over a hour long but felt like it ended so quickly. While I watched it, I really questioned if they would be able to get everything done because it just seemed like they kept adding more and more stuff that needed explaining and I I thought there was no way they would be able to explain everything, or they were going to leave huge chunks of information out.
I'm not sure how they did it, but they did it! They answered every single question I had about this movie. I don't remember any loop being left. Lol like even the small side stories ended up being a huge deal with fitting in with the movie and made it make even more sense.
I'm not going to lie, I have no idea who the actress is with TOP and Seungri but I really loved their connection with each other. They were all so cute together and I can't see anyone else playing the part better. Of course I loved TOP and Seungri's roles. Lol I mean come on. They are my heart.
I really do wonder if I would have viewed this movie different had I not known them though. Would I still have laughed at TOP's sassiness? Mushed over Seungri's shyness? Maybe not, but I guess we may never know. Lol
I wasn't expecting that ending. More like, I really wasn't expecting that person to be who it was. I was like O_O. But it also goes to show, you might think you know someone, but I guess you never really do. It broke my heart but I'm glad there was justice in the end. Plus I'm a sucker for happy endings.
If I could rate this more than 10 stars, I would. This is a movie I think everyone should watch at least once in their life.

It can't be helped though, I really expected soooo much more from this show! It was such a unique story! The acting was amazing.. and no I'm just saying that because of Suho. Mkay, so stop that thought right now. While from like episode two, everything started getting really.... really..... rrrrrrrrreally confusing, it still kept me really hooked, hey that's amazing acting and storyline for you. The problem lies in all the dang confusion!! While I do live for those stories that keep you on the edge of your seat until the end and then wrap it all up nicely with a bow at the end... this... wasn't the case.
It left me with so much... so so so many questions.
I mean, I know it explains why everything happened at the end, but not as much as I had hoped it would? Like... why them? Why are they so special? If they shouldn't, why does it keep happening? Why destiny (?) takes such a interest to these certain people? I just don't know and will probably never know. I do love the last line of the show. It was cute and made me soft. But also made me want to sob my heart out through my eyeballs.
So yes, I loved this show. I wanted to rate it 10 stars but ... the confusion, man! The confusion. Those that have followed me a while KNOW how much I hate being confused. X_X
Would I still recommend?......... Yes. Lol
