When a Wolf Falls in Love With a Sheep
6 people found this review helpful
The story had great appeal to me, since it had romance, but it wasnt overwhelmingly cheesy or anything. It was funny, not laugh out loud funny, but it sure made me smile. It had hints of drama that touched the heart, but not necessarily made you cry like a fool(unless you are REALLY sensible) Making it one heck of a refreshing movie!!!
The actors all did an amazing job; a way or another it was easy to relate with them and they interpreted their roles really nice, and each and every actor had its moment of spotlight, regardless if they were main or supporting.
The music was the only thing that didnt drive me awesome crazy, but it was just because at certain times I didnt feel like the music on. But it was not bad!
It was simply awesome :) But if you dont like slow paced movies with moments of randomness (which there are plenty) Probably you will HATE IT! And if you are looking for a movie with strong scenes, whether of action or romance, you wont find that here ^_^ But if you do look for a refreshing movie, with a sweet and awesome perspective of love and letting go, THIS IS YOUR MOVIE :D

1) Good guys are not the victims, they stand up and act FAST. Bad guys are not the typical "Im evil just because I love money, and i want power" but they do have reasons for doing the bad things they do.
2) The actors did a good job, it didn't feel over acted, and they did their roles well.
3) It was not so predictable.
As for bad things I have many many things i disliked:
1) I dont like dramas where the ending leaves you with a feeling of "and what actually happened?" or "and...?" this drama had em both. And it was too cliche as well.
2) Flashbacks of things you saw just 5 minutes ago making it boring and monotonous.
3) Music was repetitive and not amusing at all not helping with the mood of the drama.
4) Slow , slow and really slow. The best part was ending which left you wishing to see the what was going to happen next, and when next episode started they again turned things slow.
5) Not realistic at all. Which in a way its ok, since you know its a drama but in another way one likes to think it could be possible.
6) The plot lacked twists, you thought something would happen, and it didn't particularly happened that way (which was one of the things i liked) But they were not dramatic enough, making me lose interest quickly after.
7) Characters were weak, actors were good for their roles, but i think a good drama always need an explosive character that sets things into motion, they were all too passive.
8) No suspense and no thrill, the plot was very passive all the time, which contributed to the whole drama being turtle slow.
9) Romance scenes and love triangle were too predictable and cliche (i guess all dramas have this, doesn't mean i like it)
10) All characters were sick, miserable and had sad stories... I get its a melodrama, but even supporting roles had to be sad and miserable? ...
In other words, this drama , to my understanding and very personal opinion is OVERRATED. But! I learned a valuable lesson with this drama though... Never trust women and never ever watch melodramas AGAIN.

This drama starts as a drama that people like me would expect... A DIFFERENT KIND OF DRAMA, one that ends with the stereotypes of what a Kdrama is, while not losing that korean charm that is the one that hooks most of us... Well im PRETTY dissapointed. Like most dramas it started EPICLY, i even imagined the day it finally ended and I came here to give it the 10, that by that time, i thought it deserved. It had great comedy, amazing thrill and suspense, and the character portrayal was such i could not pick a favorite. But, it all died mid through. The same pattern of your every day kdrama was adopted, the same melodramatic stuff, and I could start telling what would happened 2 to 3 episodes in advance... It had a glorious beginning, it was fair midway and TOTALLY crashed in the end. If you love your typical Kdrama, you will LOVE this, if you look for something refreshing and different, you will be satisfied for a short while only to be disappointed later on. The cast was great, they portrayed their roles VERY well! no complains there. I didnt sympathize much with Park So Haa midway in the drama but, it was ok (he reminded me a lot of his character in secret garden; but im used to characters being made for actors and not the actors actually portraying the characters) I particularly liked the antagonist. The way he had that "good guy/bad guy" switch was EPIC! (i would say more but im afraid I would be a spoiler)
The music too was great! Not that it had a wide variety of songs, I guess thats the reason I liked it. But the songs that did play were perfect for setting the mood.
The drama has its redeeming qualities, but if i had known it would have been more cheesy everyday kdrama and less trial lawyer/judge/prosecutor/defendant and accused action, I prob wouldnt have even started it. Its sad that for Kdramas to be a hit they have to be so typical and predictable. Anyways~ I give it an overall 6, cause it did have some awesome moments, if i kept thinking about how disappointed i was with it it would get a 3 or so xD BUT im trying not to dwell on that and remember instead the fun and thrilling moments.
