Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
siderite The movie was nice for most of the time, although the Asian unconsumed love tension thing gets boring after a while. I am not even sure it was a romantic movie, as all the other commentators seem to think; friendship, yes.The biggest problem for me was the more than two hours running time. For a movie that was pretty clear on what it was about and how things are going to proceed, waiting so long to see how it ends was a chore. Another issue for me is that the main female character was not as interesting as her mother, who in fact was the catalyst of the entire thing.I liked some concepts in the film though: the immortal intelligent boy who looks like a man, but feels like a wolf, for example. This alone should have been enough to provide the backdrop of the story; no transformations necessary. The werewolf as a pack member, not a maniacal killer, was a nice idea, too. I also liked that they did not try to explain what happened to him or to give him allergies to silver or anything like that.All in all something that is not really a love story, has nothing to do with Twilight, it's a bit over dramatic - Korean style, but reasonable. Its length is the biggest flaw; a re-cutting of the film might make it more palatable.
Kiiro Whei "A Werewolf Boy" made me cry, I was practically bawling towards the end. Very simple but good story-line and believable acting. I practically avoid drama movies (as my well of tears is shallow) but the plot is so compelling it easily dragged me in front of my computer and glued me on my chair so I couldn't move until the movie ended. No complains though. This movie showed why I am a fan of Korean movies: Simple story-line, may be over-used, but very well executed. Some may say that the movie is slow-paced but I find beauty in it because it gave way to focusing on little details (e.g. facial expression, hand movements and other body gestures) which have big impact and lasting impression on viewer's reaction.If you're looking for a sweet story which reminds of your childhood sweetheart, the one that got away (or you let go of) due to unavoidable circumstance (which I was before watching this movie), then watch "A Werewolf Boy". This is not a horror/suspense movie though, don't expect such things. Just be ready with your tissue box, because this movie will definitely make you cry.
kenny-kuni its not a new story but still worth to have a look. To be honest, besides the cast is not that attractive to me and the at the beginning, the story is quite boring due to the tempo is very slow and almost without any fresh air... but once the more you get involved into the story, the more interesting and touching you will find in this movie...I even cried out badly at the end...I don't know why so many magnificent or gloomy love are all about a man who loves the girl so much and even sacrifices himself for the girl, however, he gets either being dumped or died...on the other hand, no matter how strong or deep the girl fell in love with the boy, she can still move on to a new life easily without regrets...is that the different perceptions of love between gender?
Denise Tan Wow. This movie was just simply lovely, honestly I haven't watched a movie this wonderful since Sunny. I enjoyed Werewolf Boy on so many levels, that I personally think whatever movie I watch here after is going to have a hard time following up. ending to this movie (according to my friend) **SPOILERS AHEAD**I personally felt as though the end of the movie took a risky turn. The movie ending with Park Bo Young's character leaving Song Joong Ki, and moving out into the world, getting married and even having a grandchild. What broke me was that when she returned to the house years later he was there waiting for her, he hadn't aged and was wearing the same clothes she found him in, while she had aged and lived her life to the fullest. It highlighted one of things most people hate to admit and avoid realizing, through time, no matter how much you love a person, slowly they become only a memory. Honestly this really upset me, for the whole day after the movie I tried to wrap my head around the reason why the director would leave such a sad ending. Until my sister pointed out that, yes Suni did move on with her life, Chul Soo didn't. Many people we meet in our lives will become a memory to us, but that there are people who will be stay, never changing and awaiting our return. And with that I say, FOUR FOR YOU JO SUNG HEE! YOU GO JO SUNG HEE! Sorry, I'm slightly tired writing this review. Seriously though, this was a great movie, beautifully shot, amazingly written, a wonderfully portrayed through many talented actors and actresses.Everyone should watch this movie when they get an opportunity. Park Bo Young was endearing as Suni, what started off as a troubled and hurting teenage girl transformed into a warm and spirit filled women. But it was of course Song Joong Ki and his scenes with Park Bo Young that captivated me. What surprised me the most about Song Joong Ki was that you could literally count the lines he had in the movie on two hands. Yet he was able to convey so much emotion simply by his interactions with Park Bo Young. His eyes spoke louder then any amount of words could ever convey. Never have I been so captivated by any one character in a movie. I was actually unaware of this but CGV Cinema actually released an alternate
