(undefined) Fred Hong Joo Jung The first season made Friends a household name, but the second season is what made Friends must see TV.

Pandora (2016) Park Jin-hai Pandora is not an easy movie to watch. It lends a painful patina of the real-world Sewol tragedy that claimed the lives of over 300 people in 2014.

The Age of Shadows (2016) Park Jin-hai What saves the film is the great acting of the two protagonists Song and Gong Yoo.

The Last Princess (2016) Yun Suh-young The Last Princess is a tear jerker, not in a far-fetched way, but in a way so subtle that you don't realize you're crying until you feel it trickle down your cheeks.

Operation Chromite (2016) Park Jin-hai A half-baked war flick.

Seondal: The Man Who Sells the River (2016) Yun Suh-young The charisma of veteran actor Cho Jae-hyun is overwhelming and steals the audience's attention.

Inside Out (2015) Yun Suh-young A witty adventure, which adorably depicts how the brain functions.
Posted May 27, 2016  Edit critic review
Phantom Detective (2016) Yun Suh-young At times the film is belly-laughingly funny and at other times chair-grippingly intense.

The Handmaiden (2016) Jason Bechervaise The whole cast delivers mesmerizing performances. Kim Min-hee is on the best form of her career following her role in Hong Sang-soo's Right Now, Wrong Then.

Thirst (2009) Lee Hyo-won Thirst, like other great movies, makes you forget you're watching one, and you won't be able to stop it from shaking up every cell in your body unless you dart for the exit.

The Bad Sleep Well (1960) Fred Hong Joo Jung The Kurosawa and Mifune must not sleep a wink since they are about as good as it gets.
Posted May 14, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
Boiling Point (1990) Fred Hong Joo Jung It is Takeshi. And although he may not sing in it (in Japan, Takeshi is a singing sensation), he does direct and kicks some rear Takeshi style.

Body Shots (1999) Fred Hong Joo Jung I am still foggy as to whether this "movie" was about the drink because I needed quite the shots to get through this dribble.

Miller's Crossing (1990) Fred Hong Joo Jung The best Coen film. It is superb in every sense of the word. A mob movie that rappers don't show off on an episode of Cribs.
