Fortunately, this is much more Memories of Murder than it is The Host. Joon-ho Bong must really have a low opinion of the police in Korea.

oh yeah another great korean movie that needs killing to move along the plot oaoohh ahhhhgg were so talented at making se7en ripoffs ohhmmfghhh ofmmmh


I'm not quite sure if you've seen either of those movies. Se7en is a movie about a guy killing people based on the seven sins and the police trying to catch him. Mother is about a girl being killed, the police wrongfully arresting someone, and his mother then trying to find out who the real killer is. Unless you think that Se7en invented the police/murders, I have no idea what you're talking about.

oh ok so watching movie, ok its pretty good about some killer oh ok never saw this before in korean movie oh ok mother actually kills guy once she figures out it protects son man such plot twist lets make it really graphic like and stuff and like the metally disabled kid was actually the killer double plot twist omg were so good at ripping off se7ens visual style omg with dark killing and stuff memories of murder oldboy sympathy of vengeance lady vengeance i saw the devil hypnosis omg dude so good 10/10 best thing ever - meanwhile where talent lies ...

What would make you think that Mother and The Host would be similar? Because they're both Korean films?


I didn't say that I thought they'd be similar, and they're by the same director.

This is the original Swedish movie of The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo, right? I can't recognize half the scenes.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

So, you're accusing it of being a rip off because:

It's about a killer
Somebody else gets killed
There's a plot twist
You think it has a visual style similar to some other movies, one of which was by the same director, and another which was made a year later

Then you link to a fan video for a remake of another movie. Ok, cool, you're a Fincher fanboy. Good job on making a good, coherent argument.

Not that I advocate anything WniO is saying but you would appear to be equal a fan boy for Bong Joon-Ho

How have I conveyed that at all in any way? I've seen three of his movies, one of which I disliked.

no im making the point that every korean movie posted in this thread besides maybe 1 is about serial killers OR needs deaths to move the plot along. top that off with copying finchers trademark color schemes and visual style and you have my argument. and top that top off with the fact that objectively they are pretty mediocre films ---> gets annoying to see them nonstop on every page.

yeah you cant judge art in any way RIGHT? oh wait, yes. you. can. so adam sandlers "thats my boy" in no way can be differentiated from the best picture nominees this year? id compare these korean films to finchers just from a ground level, but they take a lot of style from tarintino - so comparing oldboy to pulp fiction? or i saw the devil to "se7en" or "girl with the dragon tatoo" they are mediocre - good at best.

no im making the point that every korean movie posted in this thread besides maybe 1 is about serial killers OR needs deaths to move the plot along. top that off with copying finchers trademark color schemes and visual style and you have my argument. and top that top off with the fact that objectively they are pretty mediocre films ---> gets annoying to see them nonstop on every page.


Don't need to respond to anything else, really. Movies are not objectively better or worse than each other.

yeah you cant judge art in any way RIGHT? oh wait, yes. you. can. so adam sandlers "thats my boy" in no way can be differentiated from the best picture nominees this year? id compare these korean films to finchers just from a ground level, but they take a lot of style from tarintino - so comparing oldboy to pulp fiction? or i saw the devil to "se7en" or "girl with the dragon tatoo" they are mediocre - good at best.


art is subjective, and personal. All that matters is how it makes you feel after watching it.Unless your goal in life is to be a film critic, trying to "objectively' rate art is a waste of time

Mother (2009) - 8.5/10

Fortunately, this is much more Memories of Murder than it is The Host. Joon-ho Bong must really have a low opinion of the police in Korea.

oh yeah another great korean movie that needs killing to move along the plot oaoohh ahhhhgg were so talented at making se7en ripoffs ohhmmfghhh ofmmmh


I'm not quite sure if you've seen either of those movies. Se7en is a movie about a guy killing people based on the seven sins and the police trying to catch him. Mother is about a girl being killed, the police wrongfully arresting someone, and his mother then trying to find out who the real killer is. Unless you think that Se7en invented the police/murders, I have no idea what you're talking about.

oh ok so watching movie, ok its pretty good about some killer oh ok never saw this before in korean movie oh ok mother actually kills guy once she figures out it protects son man such plot twist lets make it really graphic like and stuff and like the metally disabled kid was actually the killer double plot twist omg were so good at ripping off se7ens visual style omg with dark killing and stuff memories of murder oldboy sympathy of vengeance lady vengeance i saw the devil hypnosis omg dude so good 10/10 best thing ever - meanwhile where talent lies ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C4V0S_gfyg


So, you're accusing it of being a rip off because:

It's about a killer
Somebody else gets killed
There's a plot twist
You think it has a visual style similar to some other movies, one of which was by the same director, and another which was made a year later

Then you link to a fan video for a remake of another movie. Ok, cool, you're a Fincher fanboy. Good job on making a good, coherent argument.

i dont agree with that theres a reason art students go to college, its to learn and get better at art. not to just sit around circle jerking saying "man thats such a great sketch theres nothing to criticize it cause arts subjective....." but yeah ill stop. pm time

Of course you can judge art. You can decide what you personally liked and disliked, and you can judge things on a technical level. However, you clearly can't decide which movies are objectively good and objectively bad. That's just ridiculous. I mean, do you REALLY think that because you think one movie is better than another movie, it's OBJECTIVELY better?

I'm not afraid to say it, Vertigo is an objectively better movie than http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0252745/

Hard Boiled (1992) - 8.0/10

[image loading]

A lot of mindless action, but well done mindless action. There's a bit of intrigue earlier on in the movie, but really, it's all about guns and explosions. The highlight of the movie is definitely the oner in the hospital (around two minutes forty seconds). Pretty crazy stuff.

You want korean films that aren't killer based and good?

Sunny is a film about high school in korea, and a woman reliving her adolescence as one of the friends has terminal cancer. Seriously good movie maybe 7.5/10

Hello Ghost is a comedy movie about a dude who tries to commit suicide, fails, and when he wakes up he finds that 4 ghosts now follow him around and possess him at time. Good strong comedy movie 8/10

Theres 2, could write more but I really don't care much for people bickering saying that movies are copies of others, when hollywood has been using the same plot for over 5 years.

I just watched

[image loading]

The first 45 min of the movie really made me uncomfortable. It's confusing, tense and really gets under you skin. After that the story kinda comes together and you start to realize something horrible is going to happen. Still you don't know how horrible and the movie doesn't fail fulfilling the promise.
Loved it. Only small complain is that you probably should read the plot of the book it was based on. Just the wikipedia plot description answered the few question I had since the movies sadly skipped a few things which the book explained.

4/5
We know nothing.
