Movie Info
Little Sang-woo (Yoo Seung-ho) doesn't want to leave Seoul, South Korea, to live with his mute grandmother (Kim Eul-boon) in the countryside, but his mother (Dong Hyo-heui) compels him, as she needs to look for a new job. Fractious and ill-mannered, Sang-woo variously ignores and taunts his grandmother with insulting epithets. When she won't buy batteries for his toy, he even steals from her. But over time, and in the face of her unquestioning love, he comes to admire and respect her.

This is a really nice movie, but the little boy in this was so obnoxious, I was waiting for grandma too wack him with her walking stick...yet she never did. I kept waiting for that moment when the kid redeemed himself for all the nasty things that he did to her, but it wasn't until the very end where he ALMOST did. Still not sure that I forgive him, but all in all the movie was quite enjoyable to watch.

Great movie even though there were times where I wanted to strangle the little kid
-
another korean film that examines life and human nature. i think it was a bit more suited to children, but nevertheless it was still a nice story to watch unfold... by the end! i won't call the little boy a brat... coz if i'm totally honest... i was a brat when i was little

A sweet and gentle film. The little kid is an absolute prick and you want to slap him, but of course it makes the journey of each character even better. It's a sweet and simple tale of family and is just a big smily watch.
