Seo Bok

The movie was overall good. It was pretty intense,barely could guess what is going to happen in the end.

Taking about the plot it follows a scientific experiment of clone called Seobok who can cure all human diseases and also an immortal being . A man with a brain tumor is called for the first trailer of the experiment as he was the most reliable and coward person. While shifting Seobok from the science lab a group of americans attacked them and took them to another place. Min Gi and Seobok somehow escaped the place but Seaobok wants to go the church. After that when they went to the lab where Min Gi wanted Seobok to leave.

So questions arise, Who were those americans who attacked them and why?

Why Seobok a cone wants to go to church?

Why Min Gi wants Seobok to leave the lab all of a sudden ?

I said it has a vibe of ''Stranger things '' Seobok pretty resembles Eleven. Eleven has telepathy power with it she can move or destroy things, seobok does the same. Both are the product of Scientific Experiment. Like ''Stranger things'' group of friends want to save Eleven and so does the Min Gi .

Of course Stranger things is far better than this one. But it resembles a bit that it.

I love both leads who worked hard to overcome a mediocre script. The film began okay, quickly became muddled, developed large holes, and then fell apart. But I did think the ending worked okay.

...but somehow the script is not the best, and i think with the two lead actors they could've done so much more and better (because they are both great), but it stays a bit on the surface over all. Too bad!

Entertaining big-budget sci-fi thriller. I have to say I mostly got what I wanted out of it, and that's a mix of pathos, road film and some action for good measure. It does have its shortcomings that keep it from being great, though.

Imagine having a male Asian version of Eleven from Stranger Things. Then give him a Frankenstein-type backstory and pair him with a skilled secret agent who has his own brand of unsavory past. They're the centerpiece of the film and their gradual bonding is at the heart of the story. This is the kind of thriller that takes cues from modern Hollywood cinema, but keeps that Korean flair in trying to wring out real emotions from its characters while putting them in some tough spots. It even goes overboard in that regard, with some slightly predictable, almost underwhelming scenes in the second half. The film's focus switches from an entertaining, sometimes touching road trip to borderline-corny melodrama with occasional SFX-heavy sequences. Still, even then the film has its moments; there's a particularly effective beach scene that manages to find a sense of melancholy amid all the obvious sugarcoating.

Overall, this is a polished, mostly fun and exciting ride that's worth a watch if you're into Korean genre fare and don't mind formulaic plotting. It won't blow you away, but it's got just enough going for it.

There are many philosophical questions here ... what makes us who we are ... what keeps us sane ... the power of "immortality" (you can still die, but in theory you could also live forever) ... there are so many things that are being asked. Is death really the one thing that keeps us sane? How can we know for sure? Of course same can be said about the live forever theme ... as Queen asked in their song too ... though I reckon the first instinct always is to say yes. Survival instinct and all that.

Having said that, while this is about quite the philosophical themes ... it also has quite a lot of action in it. I personally like a lot of Korean movies and while I am not completely enamoured by this one, I still think it is more than a nice effort. The melodrama is a bit much ... and there is a lot of things that remain unanswered ... but of course they are ... how would the movie be able to answer things we do not know? See above ... still a neat Science Fiction action brain teaser to say the least.
