Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Charlie Romo This picture was frustrating to watch. The chasing-around/in-pursuit-of element stretched itself thin as any episode of Looney Tunes. No gore, no frights, nothing eerie or atmospheric. Just the live action equivalent of a cartoon rife with ridiculous anxiety. I gave this a 4 instead of a 1 because of the high production value and solid acting all around.The core story, while outlandish, is interesting, but the execution of this film just left me exhausted. It lacked grace.Avoid until you've run out of contagion films to watch.South Korea has been cranking out some real gems lately. This, however, isn't one of them.
kluseba "Deranged" is an ecological thriller from South Korea with a fair amount of action and a few drama elements as well. Fans of movies such as "The Host" or "Tidal Wave" will also enjoy this one.The movie tells us the story of two brothers who don't talk to each other anymore since a tragic incident in the past. The intelligent Jae- Hyeok is a disgruntled sales executioner in a pharmaceutical company and has to do a few very degrading jobs to make his wife and two children live a modest live. His brother Jae-Pil is a cop with a bad reputation but a few good connections who is in a relationship with a doctor. When a mysterious disease breaks out in the country, the wife and children of Jae-Hyeok are among the one million infected people. The two brothers need to work together and reconcile and soon realize that the catastrophe has something to do with parasites living in water who nest in human bodies and end up killing them by drowning them or breaking out of their stomaches. As investigations progress, they realize that the infections didn't break out by pure coincidence and are about to discover a conspiracy. Meanwhile, the health of Jae-Hyeok's wife and children decreases and the two brothers desperately need to get their hands on an obscure and rare medicament that could save them.This pandemic movie convinces with a very solid acting, a well done cinematography with a few well done but not overwhelming special effects and an entertaining pace. There really isn't much wrong with the movie but I thought that the little twist in this movie was too generic and predictable as one feels that one has seen this kind of story line a couple of times before in Hollywood. Towards the end, the two brothers run a little bit too much around to find the medicament and the concept gets just a little bit repetitive. Apart of that, a few more scenes could have been spend on the relationship between the two brother but the movie rather turns out to focus on the sometimes difficult relationship between the father and his wife and children that is very well done and touching.Those who like pandemic thrillers and modern South Korean cinema should purchase this film and will be well entertained. It's nothing groundbreaking or new but the film is on the same high level as the Hollywood movies of the same kind inspired by the novels of Robin Cook, Michael Crichton or Stephen King for example.
fluffset As we can see Korea now try to wider their genre instead of just popular with their gangster-gore-cop movie as always. They had try courtroom, sport, war, social problem and many things so now they come up with ''Deranged'', their first pandemic movie maybe.Maybe everyone will remember about ''Contagion'', yes they are the same genre but this is Korea, so they are totally different movie because all korean fans know what West don't have in their movie, only in Korea.Distressful, thrilling, suspenseful, dramatic, thats what we need in the movie and Deranged have it all. Maybe it have a predictable solution but its so exciting and very worth watching. Especially for the ''race against time'' scene! Good try fella!
Karl Ericsson Thousands of people have died and the company who has the cure is refusing to give it up for free. And the prime minister give them the money that they want because that's capitalism and you cannot give up on capitalism, because where would the world then wind up? Well, it would wind up in decency and those who want to profit from other people's misery deserve very slow and painful torture to death - that's plain for anyone who can think just a little. I guess this film is done a little with tongue in cheek. That those who would not give up the medicine for free are also those who spread the disease comes as no surprise because if you can do one bad thing then you can do the other. There's only one place for capitalists and that is jail together with all other thieves. Incidentally, it's a well known dilemma if you are allowed to steal in order to save lives and the answer is that it is no dilemma - the person who would not give up a cure for free is the person who not only steals from humanity but who also murders. That is why that everything that has to do with medicine has to be state owned and free for all people in society - only brainwashed Americans will not understand this.
