    Wow....I absolutely had no idea what I was getting myself into. This movie is dark, twisted and violent, yet with a sad romantic love story embedded in the midst of all the chaos, gore and complicated family relationships. Excellent acting by everyone. Warning - please read the tags if you are easily triggered. There are quite a few triggers in this movie. Now I need something cute and fluffy to cleanse my palette.

    Completed: 12/17/2022

    I don't think this is my kind of movie. It's very slice-of-life/healing/finding yourself movie. If you like a calming, soothing movie with farming and rural life, this is good. I like the food and the home-cooking the most. Other than that, not much is going on.

    14. And So We Put Goldfish in the Pool

    Japanese Movie - 2017

    Completed: 11/17/2022

    This is weirdly interesting. It's like a 30-min documentary of four Japanese teenage girls in a very Japanese way. I don't even know how to rate this.

    Maybe I should have waited until Christmas or New Year to watch this to be in the right mood.  This is a nice feel good, pick me up movie.  A little short as I would have loved to see more of each couple.  This movie has quite a star-studded cast of good actors/actresses.  It's also interesting to hear 4 different languages.

    Amazing acting by Zhou Dong Yu and Sandra Ma. No wonder they both won the Golden Horse Best Actress award for this movie. It's an interesting way of telling their story with some unexpected twists. I wonder if Zhou Dong Yu ever acted in a rom-com. All her movies are so serious.

    Completed: 10/11/2022

    I still remember when Charlene Choi was the teenage member of the Hong Kong girl group "Twins".  How much she has grown and it makes me feel really old.  LOL.   This is a movie about a woman accepting who she is, rediscovering herself and getting over her issues.  Of course, Chris Wu is always the highlight and he's no exception here.  He's so charismatic and I'm surprised that his Cantonese is actually pretty good.  I also appreciate all of Chris Wu's sexiness in this movie (for mature audience only, 18+).

  • Dear Ex

    20. Dear Ex

    Taiwanese Movie - 2018

    8.5

    Completed 9/29/2022

    What a complicated, messy, painful, emotional, and well-acted movie.  Roy Chiu is excellent and has not disappointed me yet.  The female lead is just as great, but her character is too loud and bitchy for my taste, but all for good reasons.  This movie doesn't move me as much as "Man in Love" but it's definitely worth a watch and worthy of all the acting nominations and awards.  Now I need to find a lighter Roy Chiu movie/drama so I can stare at how handsome he is.  I need to see him in nice-looking clothes and not in rags.  LOL.

    Not that this is bad. I just don't think we need an alternate and unrealistic ending. The ending in Ep 30 is just fine.

    7.5

    I watched this late last night when everyone was asleep.  Well, this movie is like soft p0rn, so my friends who are under 18, I will not recommend this for you.  At first glance, this movie is about the weird fetishes and desires women have.  When you look deeper, it does show the insecurities of women  and their relationships with their men.  Matsuzaka Tori is HOT in this movie.  If you want something sexy, it's a great one-time watch.  Some of the scenes are too dark for me to enjoy.

  • Woo Ri and Ja Young

    25. Woo Ri and Ja Young

    Korean Movie - 2021

    8.0

    Completed: 9/14/2022

    Watching this because of Son Seok Koo.  He's quite adorable in this movie.  I find that I don't know how to rate a movie anymore after watching so many dramas.  I can't critically review it or point out what I like/dislike, esp. when the movie is a rom-com and it's so short.  I guess I'll just rate it an 8.0 because I enjoyed a more mature romance and not a fluffy, cute and chaste one.  The subtitles are a mess though.

  • Your Name Engraved Herein

    26. Your Name Engraved Herein

    Taiwanese Movie - 2020

    8.5

    Completed = 7/30/22  - 8.75

    Been wanting to watch this for a while and finally am in the mood.  It's beautifully shot, very emotional and full of chemistry.  There's a lot of quietness in this movie to let the audience really feel the emotions displayed.  It's not a happy, fluffy BL movie.  Rather, it's a raw, coming of age drama when feelings are understood but not displayed, even though the martial law is gone.    This movie reminded me of  the Thai drama "I Told Sunset About You".  All it's missing is one very passionate and emotional kiss.  :)

  • The Happy Loner

    27. The Happy Loner

    Korean Special - 2017, 2 episodes

    8.0

    Completed - 6/28/2022

    This is an interesting and short watch. I didn't like ML's personality in the beginning and think he's a little too over-the-top. I would have liked 1 more episode as I felt that the mutual attraction could use some more development before they fall in love. Otherwise, it's an interesting enemies-to-lovers + opposite attracts + mental health short special. Oh, and I really hate how unprofessional therapists are portrayed in this and many other K-dramas. 

  • Fall In Love Like A Star

    28. Fall In Love Like A Star

    Chinese Movie - 2015

    8.0

    A simple and easy watch - not amazing, not horrible.
    This is actually my first time watching Li Yi Feng and Yang Mi in a modern title after all the historical dramas. They're so young and good-looking! Yang Mi is SOOO pretty! It's like she's never aged. It's also interesting to see a ditzy Dilraba. She looked a little different, maybe a little plastic surgery? Still beautiful though.

  • The Liar and His Lover

    30. The Liar and His Lover

    Japanese Movie - 2013

    8.0

    No Review - Completed 6/21/2022

    A simple and predictable love story between a genius music producer and a high schooler. Nothing earth-shattering but with solid performances by the leads. Besides, who wouldn't want to see a young Takeru Satoh. I wish his bangs are shorter so that I can see his handsome face. If you watch this, don't miss the real ending after the ending credits. The songs are not bad and I always prefer the acoustic versions sung in the drama.

    Completed 6/13/2022 - 7.75

    Interesting drama special about a genius scientist with her cyborg husband.  The production quality is lower than the last special I saw.  Acting is only so-so especially for the female lead, but the ending twist was quite unexpected.

    Ji Sung is so adorable and handsome in this movie.  Gosh..that was 10 years ago and he's still hot these days.  A funny, sexy and heartwarming movie.  If you want to watch something romantic and is ok with infidelity, this is a good watch.  Well, beware that there are nudity and sex scenes.  The difference between Korean movies and Korean Dramas is crazy when it comes to sexy content.

    This is an interesting rom-com coming out from S. Korea.  It's funny, emotional and sensual.  I quite enjoyed it, esp. the sexual tension brewing in the first half of the movie.  However, there's something about the ending that bugged me a little.  Not sure what that is.  Maybe because the second half has a more serious tone but the ending reverted back to its rom-com root.   This is the first work of the leads for me and they did pretty well.  Lee Jun Young  (ML) is quite adorable and looks really handsome in certain shots.  Don't think I'll write a review on this movie.
