Coin Locker Girl

From the beginning, we enter a dark and disturbing atmosphere of the life of a girl imprisoned in a violent world that does not hesitate to exploit her. This almost gloomy side of the film is very well transcribed in the decor, with its lot of dark alleys and a voluntary of aesthetics in some places, but also thanks to the characters.
Each secondary character of the film is clearly traumatized by this world, their personalities, their actions, everything in their lives is bad and the actors perfectly managed how to play with their faults. Nevertheless, it is difficult not to get attached to some of them because they appear almost innocent in a world so dark. Each character has its place in this film and the actors succeeded in adapting their acting to the intentions of the film.
However, after all these qualities, there are still, in my opinion, some flaws. For starters, the scenario is not very original. A protagonist, locked in a world of violence ties after an event to escape... It has been done plenty of times. In itself, it does not bother me if everything is very well done, the originality of a movie can always be in the details. Then the biggest problem I have with this movie is the lack of time invested in the characters.
As I said before, each character is well made and endearing to a certain extent. Unfortunately, we do not really dwell on their problems, their thoughts or even the relationships between them. We are given facts but no evolutions. This is the case with the relationship between Il Yeong (Kim GoEun) and the Park SeokHyun (Park BoGum), they become friends, something happens between them, but as spectators we did not really see a linear change in the evolution of their relationship. This is also the case with the secondary characters that we appreciate but not to the point of really getting attached to them emotionally, //spoiler// which makes the scene of their death less touching //spoiler//.
Finally, Coin Locker Girl is a good movie, entertaining, sad and can make us reflect on our choices and our obligations in difficult situations, but its few defects limits its ability to really stand out.
