Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

couperjohn People seem to compare this movie to "Saw" or "Grudge' or something, which is seriously missing the point. It isn't a horror flick, but something much less and more.There are things about the direction that miss the mark, and the end is obvious (if still kind of shocking), but this story is about how people see themselves and trap each other. It's about two people who shut themselves off from the world and accidentally live next door-- very Existential, as the whole flick is. By focusing on and exaggerating our strangeness and how two people over the edge can complement each other, it is about sex on a much more intense and original level than any movie I have seen.More than its content, it is an amazing piece of stripped-down movie-making that I can only compare to Nolan's "Following" for simplicity and low-budgetness. I suggest my students see these two on that count alone: how to do something unforgettable on no budget.If you watch it for gore and twists, or FX, you'll waste your time. But for Zen-like imagination, it's hard to beat.

Meganeguard Director: Park Cheol-su Duration: 100 Minutes301/302 opens with an investigator visiting the residence of 301, a recently divorced woman who is a master chef, after the disappearance of 302 because she is the one who last saw the missing woman. Unperturbed, 301 invites the investigator to have some fried chicken which he states is the best he ever tasted. The film then goes into a series of flashbacks, showing when 301 moved into her apartment neighboring that of 302. A boisterous, talkative woman is a bit put off by the coldness of her neighbor who prefers to not utter a single word than to accept 301's greetings. However, 302's coldness, and her slender figure, entices 301 to get to know her better, so she cooks 302 a mouthwatering meal. Yet, after 301 departs, 302 tosses the food into the fridge and hurries to the restroom to vomit as if the mere sight of food makes her sick. 301 continues to bring 302 food and each dish ends up in the garbage. After discovering this, 301 tries to force 302 to eat the food, but 302 explains that she cannot eat that her body rejects the food. She also cannot engage in sex because of similar reasons. She states that she has a great filth inside of her that does not allow her to enjoy food or sex and she wishes her body would disintegrate.After learning this, 301 continues to make more food, foods that she terms to be tender, but no matter how well prepared 302 cannot eat the food and always vomits it all up. After awhile the viewer finally learns 302's dark past. However, she is not the only one with a dark past. Why is 301 so insistent that 302 eats her food? It seems that 302 is not the only one with issues.The two main themes of 301/302 are food and sexuality. 302 is unable to enjoy or indulge in food or sex while 301 is fond of both. However, because of her rocky marriage and later her divorce she is unable to engage in a fulfilling sexual life so she indulges in food instead. Yet she is not just overeating, she is literally engorging herself with food gaining more than half her bodyweight. 302, on the other hand, is wasting away because of her fears associated with food and sex. A complex, dark film, 301/302 is quite a thought provoking film, but one that should definitely not be watched after enjoying a big meal.

d_pokrajac This is a masterpiece, but if I had known the end, I would have NEVER watched it. The movie is a story about two lonely frustrated women, one intelectual and another housewife. One a habitual eater, and another slim and anorexic. And, well, instead of lesbian relationship (which someone else would put in the movie) we have... well you will see... Just a warning: DO NOT EAT NOTHING prior to watching the movie.

Bubba-50 I rented this film hoping for a Korean film similar to "Eat, Drink, Man, Woman". What a shock. I have enjoyed Asian cinema for years. I spent a year in Korea. I was not prepared.But I did watch it twice. Hmmmmmm.
