    A Normal Family

    ★★★½

    A satirical drama with a tone comparable to the novel Bonfire of the Vanities.  The execution is quite good except that the ending is a bit too obvious.  The cinematography is very sophisticated for a Korean drama and Seoul has never looked better on film.

    ★★★

    There were some nice moments of awkward tension.  However, the director’s constant choice to focus on the mood over plot took away from character/relationship development.

    Good acting and loads of fun in this pulpy period piece.  Didn’t think it needed the fantasy sequence at the climax.
