- GoofsIts a factual mistake made because of a plot hole
Near the end of the robot fight scene at beginning the physical "girl" humanoid robot is lying on a floor or beam above the simulated 4 legged mechanical dog robot . "she" is spotted by a heat signature as if she was human . A robot thou omitting small amounts of heat - depending on it constitution would not put out as much heat as a warm blooded animal "human". Its a plot hoe to fool you into thinking shes human until her fingers shot off.
Featured review
Stumbling upon the 2023 South Korean action sci-fi movie "Jung_E" on Netflix, of course I had to watch it. I had never actually heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it, so I didn't really have any expectations to the movie.
And truth be told, I am not particularly a huge sci-fi fan, so I can't claim that I was particularly thrilled to sit down to watch this movie from writer and director Sang-Ho Yeon. But of course "Jung_E" deserved a fair chance, and thus I opted to watch it.
"Jung_E" certainly was a visually impressive movie, and I must admit that I was definitely enjoying the special effects and CGI in the movie. It looked and felt like a futuristic movie, without a doubt. And the special effects in the movie certainly does a lot to lift up and carry the movie.
As for the story and script in "Jung_E", as written by Sang-Ho Yeon, well I wasn't overly impressed and was actually only mildly entertained by the storyline here. It was simplistic and generic, and there wasn't really much food for thought as the storyline trotted on for 98 minutes. Sure, it was watchable and fair enough for what it was, but this was by no means a groundbreaking sci-fi tale.
They had a good cast ensemble in the movie, just a shame that the actors and actresses were somewhat held back by a bland script.
I am sure that diehard sci-fi fans will get a much greater kick out of watching "Jung_E" than I did as a mere casual viewer.
My rating of "Jung_E" lands of a five out of ten stars.
