    Insanely strong start, with tension that kept me hooked. buuuutttt, kinda lost me in the 2nd and 3rd act. The usual psychological thriller beats with a less than foreseeable twist and outcome. had some parts that genuinely gave me the creeps, Visually stunning and some decent writing to fill the gaps. Thanks to Mr.Cage for his stunning performance as Marilyn Manson.

    The best film Korean cinema has to offer...If the quality of films were based on how hard it is to keep your eyes open.

    If 'Frequency' was Korean and boring. VERY sluggish with the first 20 minutes being a slog to sit through as the writers quite literally drip feed information that we as the viewer already know. BUT! totally gripped in the lead to the 3rd act. Love the acting from the cast, although I hate the Korean "badass"…

    boys set the fireworks ablaze...

    Watched this Australian Rom Com in celebration of valentines day and wow, I would have had a more fulfilling night If I shit in my hands and clapped. Crazy Rich Asians if it were poorly written and edited. Got some decent performances from the actors / actresses, but that's all this film has to offer. I am losing hope in modern day Rom Coms.

    ngl I started cracking up when she told the band to shut up.

    I hate giving this film a 3.5/5 but its a visual and aural masterpiece. The subject of the film leaves me shocked and disgusted I even watched it.

    That rape scene has to be the worst scene I've ever had to sit through, having to pause multiple times to process and calm down, but it just kept going and going. The screams for help and the crying just broke me. IT FEELS TOO REAL!!!

    Now onto the good shit, visually…
