My Review

The Main  Cast  Rain  as  Cha Young Min Kim Bum   as  Ko Seung Tak Uee  as  Jang Se Jin Son Na -eun as Oh Soo Jeong Overall Review   (Spoilers below, please do not read on if you have not watch the drama) The genre of this drama setting is totally my cup of tea:  Afterlife world, doctors, ghosts! If one is expecting any horror and scary moments, there is not none in this drama. Its focus are towards between two men who seemed totally different and they learned more about each other with each episodes through this seemingly impossible ways.  From point to point, it's ironic how Cha Young Min 's arrogant method/character as a doctor came back to bite him when he become Ghost Patient Cha Young Min . And as the drama progressed on, it also worked on how destiny and fate played a big part for Tes , Cha Young Min ,  Ko Seung Tak and Oh Soo Jeong . Want to see more on the the coma ghost who woke up after their surgery, want to see m...

Watching the movie... First time watching a musical movie. An invitation to watch this show by a friend and the actress Emily Brunt attracted me to step into the theater for Mary Poppins Returns . Didn't know about the story line so when the characters seemed to know who Mary Poppins was, I was wondering if there was an earlier movie. Indeed there was and it was closed to more than 50 years ago! About the movie.... The show was simple and easy to digest. A family dealing with a series of unfortunate events and have a very happy ever after with the return of Mary Poppins. For an adult like me.... If I were to watch this when I was young, I would be full of joy and happiness. Now that I am all grown up, it felt like an impossible reach to be that happy as portrayed by the characters. In the movie... There were a lot of singing. For those like me who never watched the first movie, I wasn't sure if Jack(the guy singing/riding on his bicycle most of the time) and Jane ...

Story goes... "In 1952 Romania, two Roman Catholic nuns living at the Cârța Monastery are attacked by an unseen force when they enter a tunnel to retrieve an ancient Christian relic. The surviving nun, Sister Victoria, flees from the attacker, a demon appearing as a nun, and hangs herself. Her body is discovered by Frenchie, a villager who transports supplies to the nuns..." Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nun_(2018_film) Conclusion An overall satisfying movie... - just nice special/scary effect for the movie - despite the main casts was only around 4 (3 humans and the nun), the screen didn't felt lacking. - the main storyline was well paced with the ending giving a smooth wrap up to link up with it's Conjuring series. Looking forward to sequel but seemed like the next up would be The Conjuring 3 .

Storyline "The alien Predators come to the southern backwoods of the US state of Georgia, and a group of former soldiers and a biologist have to face the Predators to save the human race." -Source: https://www.foxmovies.com/movies/the-predator Watch out for? The young boy, Jacob Tremblay as Rory McKenna . Great acting he got there. Conclusion The movie itself... It felt like the movie was shot by different people. The movie pace was like sudden accelerate and changed pace which makes the tension falls apart, then proceed with a fast pace and dead end. The movie left me very  CONFUSED . The focus shifted all over the movie. I still prefer the portion where it felt like the predator movie style of "fight-run-survive and loop again". But the movie kept trying to bring a main story frame and pull it together but not a smooth transition. Spoilers Ahead: Feels like I watched a sci-fi drama but on the big screen and it was like.. "what? I just fini...

Storyline  [1] In the film, a deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific… with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below… bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.

Synopsis and Cast "“Switch Girl!!” is a manga series by Aida Natsumi that currently runs in Shueisha’s magazine Margaret and has sold close to 5 million copies total. The story revolves around a high school student named Nika (Nishiuchi Mariya) who appears to be a stylish and fashionable girl at school, but that’s really a fake persona that she uses when she’s in public. At home, she “switches off” the facade and her returns to her true slovenly nature. Kiriyama Renn (26) plays the good-looking transfer student Arata, who is Nika’s love interest in the story. The drama series will begin airing on satellite channel Fuji TV TWO on December 24, which is Nishiuchi’s 18th birthday. -"  Tokyography My review: Picked up this drama randomly ever since I stopped Japanese drama. And I like it! Enjoyable..watch at your own pace or watch it in one go, it's addictive. However, if you are not into comedy, pure leisure kind of drama, this might not be your cup of tea.  As said in the...

Having seen the trailer, it looked like it's another great movie ahead. But when I was done with watching, it just felt..... Spoilers Ahead... Some thoughts on the movie: Scare factor: 2.5 of out 5 At many scenes where we would typically get a scare of our lives with a suddenly shriek or a ghost projection, it was only to a minimal and when it felt like more than half of the movie was already gone then it really happened. Being a ghost movie fan, I am so sure there would be something happening at that point of time, or even more... but it didn't. When the ghost possessed the human body, the only difference is a nonsensical mumble/speech with a enlarged black pupils which reminded me and my friend of her colored contact lenses with the enlarge the pupils' visual effect. It seemed better effect to leave the ghost outlook alone.. maybe like Sadako, covered her face with hair and leave it up to the audience's imagination for the fear factor. Movie Overall : 3 ...

My review of the final installment: Resident Evil 6 (R.E.6): The Final Chapter Spoilers Ahead!  Thumbs up:  Wrapping up the storyline : R.E.6 The Final Chapter worked hard to wrap up the story line than purely an adventure on the go action/effects movie. Another side of Alice : Rather than showing  Alice  being good at fighting, a portion of the screen time was used on showing she is good with strategy. Lee Joon Gi's short appearance but refreshing character:  Lee Joon Gi stood out a lot. The only refreshing character which could be put to bigger use to bring more impact to the movie. His character certainly stood out among the many characters despite having minimal scene time. Disappointment Factor 1: No action pack battle and replaced with narration After years of waiting, the final movie is finally released. At the end of Resident Evil 5: Retribution , looked like a big battle between Alice and zombies + dragons? BUT at the start of Resid...

Spoiler ahead!  Please don't read on if you don't want to know about the movie details yet...  (And if you haven't watch the movie, you might not be able to relate to the below too.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Summary The title says it all, the ultimate destination is to Busan and via train. But no...it's not that simple. Because the journey to Busan is filled with zombies (main obstacles) and human selfish and selfless acts. The trailer gave a deja vu of the movie World War Z. But the zombies rely more on the human-zombie actors than the special effect. The part where the zombies piled up within the train cabin is like World War Z style. Being a zombie film fans, the trailer got me so interested that I finally step foot into the theater after so many titles failed to do so. The movie setting started from a regular office, to a normal home to the train and train station. The main l...

Cast  [1] Namgoong Min as Ahn Dan-tae / Seok Joon-pyo Bang Minah (Girl's Day)  as Gong Shim On Joo-wan as Seok Joon-soo Seo Hyo-rim as Gong Mi Initially it was titled as " Yasoowa Minyeo " ("The Beast and The Beauty") but subsequently changed to  Beautiful Gong Shim . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Girl's Day Minah as Gong Shim When I looked at the title, I wondered if the story will be more focused on the female lead. I like Minah  a lot, but this is a heavy responsibility. Almost towards the middle of the drama, it was obvious the focus was onto the 2 brothers than Gong Shim . (I really like Minah  but) it's undeniable that the 2 brothers' story line was more exciting to watch.  This isn't  Minah  first film. Previously, she had a lead role in the movie "Holly" and also acted in other movies. More recently, she appeared in the drama "The Savag...

Starring Hwang Jung Min as Goo Dong Baek, Kim Ah Joong as Han Ji Soo and Joo Sang Wook as Kim Kang Mo (Ji Soo's secret love). Honestly, this is my first time seeing Hwang Jung Min's acting. I started this show purely because of the plot and Kim Ah Joong, the lead actress for 200 Pound Beauty. I was impressed with her singing in that movie. The plot is actually a simple one, with some twists here and there... Simple: A famous star and a down-to-earth man fake marriage become true. Twists: The factors leading to the fake marriage and the factors causing the fake marriage become true. BUT I would give the biggest credit to Hwang Jung Min. If not for him making his character alive, I wouldn't have continued this drama. Lee Chung Ah as Goo Min Ji (Dong Baek's younger sister) and Baek Sung Hyun as Han Sang Chul (Ji Soo's younger brother) also brighten this drama making it more interesting. Btw, after I did a google on Hwang Jung Min, then I realized he bagged a number of ...
