The NZA Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Junker recommended it; its a fun Korean monster flick in the vein of Godzilla. There's the usual amount of anti-americana (and it works) but the focus is on one particular family and its dealings with the...the thing. Im shit at reviewing today, likely in general, so there's not much more i can add. Its fun.
Da Cap'n Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Man, I really liked this movie! I can't wait till dubbed version! I really recommend this to everybody!
JunkerSeed Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Hell yes, this movie rules. Great characters, pacing, camerawork, the whole movie just gels together really well. It's everything that Roland Emmerich's "Godzilla" wasn't and more. Those Koreans sure are getting good at this, aren't they?
The NZA Posted June 3, 2007 Author Posted June 3, 2007 Yeah, they really are. You gotta keep the asian/otherwise flick recommendations coming, man. Id never know about this shit otherwise.
Iambaytor Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 I have really wanted to see this, it looks very interesting and even if I do hate giant monster movies I find myself wanting to see this one. (I also cannot stop air guitaring because Nick had to reference a fucking Blue Oyster Cult song)
JunkerSeed Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Well, this stuff is in no way new, but one of my favorite directors from over yonder is Shinya Tsukumoto. Track down "Tetsuo" (aka Tetsuo: The iron man) or "Tokyo Fist" on Netflix; his stuff is not quite as accesible; but holy shit, these are some of the most intense films you'll ever see; it's like inviting a Japanese guys over to beat your ass with a lead pipe for 80 minutes. But in a good way.
Reverend Jax Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 (I also cannot stop air guitaring because Nick had to reference a fucking Blue Oyster Cult song) And I have to go play it on Guitar Hero now. I'm renting this one soon.
The NZA Posted June 4, 2007 Author Posted June 4, 2007 thanks danny, ill look those ones up soon too. Oh, anyone wanting to see this that cant find it at a rental, lemme know, i can make copies for PC viewing.
Lycaon Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 I second the recommendations for this movie. Go watch it. Now !
Ganny McVagflaps Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 I can't wait till dubbed version! Panch no reed two gud. The Host is brilliant. Funny as balls as well. Good call on "Tetsuo" by Junker. Only seen that, then spotted on the box of "A Snake In June" that it was directed by that dude so I gave it a shot and it was pretty decent as well.
Da Cap'n Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Man, I really liked this movie! I can't wait till dubbed version! I really recommend this to everybody! Got it!
Darth Fluffakins Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Its been a long while since I've seen it but I do remember enjoying it. If you like big monster-esque type movies. Fluffy approved.
