After hearing many positive comments about this film and being recommended to watch it so many times by friends, 'Confessions' definitely lived-up to its reputation.

It made me hide behind my cushion, bite my nails, shout at the television excitedly and nervously; it was very thrilling throughout the movie!

There was some violence, some blood and gore, and some heart-break and tears, all wound up in a very mind-twisting and emotional story. You need to pay attention to the small details because if you don't, you won't understand the movie as much. Even now, I need to re-watch it again because I feel there are some parts I need to understand a bit more but I can't bring myself to, because it has generally scared me to the core xD

You know when there are some movies that need to be seen in a cinema? Well, this doesn't. You can watch it at home at medium-volume (or how loud you like it) and you will still feel the hairs raise up on the back of your neck, the chilling whispers and screams..

So watch it, you won't regret it :)

This is my first time writing a review for drama shows (and in a long time) so I will try and be as critical as I can and not give too much away ^^;

I watched this off dramacrazy.net with English subtitles, so if you're having trouble finding it, that's the place to go.

A good watch or a time-waster? Overall, I would say it's a time-waster. It had a good moral to the story but it wasn't presented as strongly as I hoped from reading the plot summary so this was one disappointment.

I expected... so much more of a lesson in this movie. More emotional, more thought-provoking just like '200 Pounds Beauty', answering the question of: why do we change for love? And that size doesn't matter, we should love our inner selves not the outer etc.

Kang Do Kyeong's (Lee Hyun Jin - who also starred in 'Heartstrings') acting in this movie was good; he played his role well. However, I didn't find Lee So Jung (Do Ah Ra) convincing enough to *believe* and understand the reason why she changed her size for love unlike Kim A Joong as Han-Na in '200 Pounds Beauty'.

Despite that, there were some humour in some places and I grew to warm up to Do Ah Ra because of her improved personality and better relationship with her brother but still felt this was a let down. So overall, I would give it 5/10.
