well I have pre-ordered the korean 3 disc DTS-ES version but that will probably be just like the Canadian version.

Adam_S - I would say the biggest advantages that Korean cinema has over everyone else is in their romances and their comedy which has unversal appeal despite being korean in flavour. Comedies from around the world just doesn't travel, I think its mainly because most comedies are just too...

Only recently watched The Way Home myself and I have to say it is very watchable with lots of attention to detail to prevent it from slipping into cliche foreign folk tales. Yeah its not original but it is well observed and enjoyable.

Saving My Hubby - Bae doo-na is a super actress and the film relies solely on her talent ... See it for Bae Doo-na. Wet Dreams - Juvenile sex comedy but has a certain charm to it. Marrying The Mafia - Commecial comedy with a terrible ending ... I liked the actress though :) Jailbreakers -...

There is a review of the 99 min cut DVD with screen grabs over at the DVD forums.

Lover's Concerto Directed by 1st timer Lee Han and starring Cha Tae-Hyun (My Sassy Girl), Lee Eun-Ju (Bungee Jumping Of Their Own), Son Ye-Jin (Chihwaseon and The Classic), the film is marketed like another teenage romantic comedy which it largely is. However, Korean romances are leaps and...

Resurrection Of The Little Match Girl In a word - Good! Not as confusing as your led to believe the film is very much a linear film until the end where it goes a little 2001. However it maybe a linear film but its completely unconventional as it changes from scene to scene without...

Hero Directed by Zhang Yimou Released By Edko Films 100 Mins Firstly I was disappointed with Hero and overall it isn't as good a CTHD. It is however very different form CTHD and more akin to Chen Kaige's The Emperor and the Assassin in scale and theme ... It is a full blown art...

Mark_Wilson I would suggest you pick up the cheap HK version of One Spring Day and watch it once because the film is not dialogue heavy and the magic lies in the reaction between the leads and beautiful landscape shots.

If you can find this for cheap then it is a worthwhile version to buy, however it does have Pal to NTSC conversion jerking throughout the whole movie.

Chris Xolotl - Depends what you want from a Movie like Nowhere To Hide ... I couldn't forgive its pop video sensibilities and I don't believe there is a plot worth following. It does look good technically however but don't expect it to be action packed ... you'll be disappointed.

Brajesh Upadhyay - The korean film recommendation thread is the same as this thread ... well me and cirrus888 are the same :) Try www.koreanfilm.org for more info.

Brajesh Upadhyay - The beauty in the movie lies in the composition of frames and shots bringing a fresh look to tired cliches. There are I must admit lots of reviews on the net saying this film is very bleak, violent and depressing. This maybe so depending on how hardened you are to such...
