Well.. Since this film is a remake of the original American version, it's obvious how the outcome will be like. Although there were some added parts, and many differences between the 2 films.
I, for one, actually enjoyed this film. It's my first cross-over films that didn't really leave me that disappointed. First of all, he actually spoke Japanese and did surprisingly well at it. I mean, when I saw 'Waiting in the Dark' I was disappointed with Chen Berlin cause he didn't really speak much in the film anyways, so I'm glad Song Seung Hun worked on his Japanese.. And I thought his little outbreaks of Korean every now and then were cute. Especially when he started teaching Nanami some words. I can't really say much about the plot, since it's nearly the same as the original... But the acting was well done. Although, I did think Kiki Kirin did perform a little too over-the-top, unlike Whoopie Goldberg's portrayal, but as a group the acting was really nothing to complain about.
As for the music, it was my particular favorite throughout the film. Ken Hirai has the voice of an angel. Now... Would I watch this film again? Not anytime soon, no, but maybe if I become bored or have nothing interesting to watch. Honestly, this film really wasn't too bad if you're looking for a film that's cute and heart-warming, I recommend watching this film.
