Girls might enjoy but a pass for most guys
15 May 2013
No, this isn't a horror flick but a dull fantasy romance flick. I usually don't mind these types of flick but it's just so darn dull, predictable and boring most of the way through the build up. I am not sure if they just wanted to make a Korean "Twilight" with a werewolf or just cash in on Joong-ki Song popularity since he is or was the rising popular actor in Korea at the time. I just never found Joong-ki Song to be able to play tough, strong, cool or even charismatic characters. So he basically sticks to the the cute characters to win over fan girls which is understandable. But that is all this movie is for the most part, just Joong-ki Song being this obedient cut dog character. It's basically like "Twilight" where girls can fantasize and maybe even enjoy but guys will be bored while on the date. And the main villain is just super laughable and more of a joke than anything else. It's like they wrote his character so he can act like such a bad and vile guy that just tries so hard to be bad. Everything about the villain in this movie is so darn forced it becomes very very difficult to take seriously. I can see why girls might like this flick but guys should probably pass on this one. If your girlfriend however wants to see this with you, just do it. It isn't a unbearable movie to sit through but just not a very entertaining one for guys.
