Geol seukauteu (2008)
My cookies
I guess I misunderstood. I saw this rad cover of this angry screaming females, all yellow. I swear I read that it was about some money being taken. I got it in my head that some Girl Scouts got their cookie money stolen and the Girl Scouts mothers go on a kicking teeth mission. This was not the case. Honestly I still think someone should make that movie. Hollywood, listen to me and stop trying to destroy Old Boy.
Our toughest woman doesn't even fight at the end. A guy takes over the fight. It made me angry. Good thing about disappointment though, I always think I missed something and want to watch the movie again.
The characters, especially the females, are well written and very different and some twists make you wonder how long they'll be friends. They don't get along even when getting along. What would be the fun of a road trip movie if everyone just sang the whole time? Amateurs on a sting mission. Amateurs on a spy mission. It's light. The Chaser came out the same year. Maybe you needed something light.
KD Media's first pressings are often sleeved with alternate art. This release is no different. I love the cover. It makes you wish it was as judged. Damn you proverbs.

Sweet!
This is a frantically edited film with a lot going on. Personally it didn't bother me but I can see people getting lost. You're also dealing with a cake shop with guys kissing. But I'm sure you can see that on television nowadays.
Why would you open a cake shop if you hate cake? That's just one of the mysteries in this twisting K-flick by Min Gyu-Dong, maker of the smash horror Memento Mori. I got a bit confused with one of the main actors and Lee Jun-ki. Both look like women. I mean, look at the poster. Korea is breeding androgyny! As strange as this movie is, it's entertaining and pretty fun. It's based on a comic, but you'd never know it. The characters are developed really well and the whole thing is sweet.
