Well that's my first time writing a review and since I wouldn't really know where to start, Ill just go with the list right? xD
I think there's quite a lot to say about the story. First of all I liked the simplicity behind it. It didn't have much of those twists and such that normally make the movie more interesting and is often a reason I like one. But I honestly think this didn't need those. It was great without any thing all too special.
I do think though that the fantasy bit was not necessary. When I watched the movie I didn't even realise it had anything to do with fantasy and in my opinion it wouldn't have been any less good without any fantasy at all. And I dont think it came through properly at all anyway.
I loved that it had its funny moments and its sad moments and its REALLY sad moments when I was sitting here crying and its moments where people like me just cant help but smile. So yeah me liked the story quite a bit.
The acting was great. Theres not really a lot to say about it than that. I loved how the characters interacted with each other. I for one could easily tell the relationship between two people, which made it easy to follow. In a movie I think its quite important to show how people stand to each other because we dont have the time to really get used to it as we do in dramas and I they managed to portrait that very well. I especially like the relationship between the two leads but I have to admit that the male lead and the little sister of the female lead were really cute together as well. I really loved watching them.
Im not someone who usually pays attention to music in a drama/movie. Reason is that I simply forget. Only if something really doesnt fit at all Im like 'What the hell is up with that?!'
Dont get me wrong I do appreciate music but if I dont realise its there that usually means that it fits well enough for me to just blend it in with the whole scene. In this movie they kept it quite simple and I liked that. Its not very strong by itself (that's not meant in a negative way) but it simply helps the scene perfectly. Also, I really liked that one song played on guitar by the lead thats also in the credits.
I do think the movie has a high rewatch value as its, like I probably mentioned like a thousand time already, easy to follow. It is NOT a movie to just casually watch either though. But then again, that might just be me not being able to handle sad movies properly. Im always crying about mainly everything so yeah. I'd probably need some time before I'd watch it again. But that might as well just be me being strange.
Overall a really really great movie I liked and it once again proved me right that Song Joong Ki can act.
So generally if you like sad movies that make you smile more than once and kind of laugh a litte in between thats it for you.
Hope it helped and yeah, have fun watching it right? :'D
