  As the subtle mystery of the first half an hour evaporated I became almost angry.

  • His "Real Fiction" is very entertaining, original, and leaves you with some - tinear 14:52:29 12/10/06 (0)

    troubling images and ideas. I think you'd like it as it shows true cinematic skills.

    and prefer the Isle and much prefer Spring Summmer Fall Winter and Spring by Ki-duk Kim.

    To me 3 Iron was mostly a gimic of a plot not much else...

    I think that I felt the film was okay when I first saw it some time ago, but it did not stick with me after the passage of time. Duk's Spring, Summer, Fall..., on the other hand....

      I watched Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...Spring recently.

      I was underwhelmed, to say the least.

      The stories were presented literally, superficially. It tells you, instead of engaging you and letting you figure out for yourself.

      I read somewhere the director is not a Buddhist (he's a Christian). If true, this could perhaps (but should not) explain why he's able to sketch the forms but not show profoundness of the Buddhist teachings. I'm not a Buddhist but even I can see an opportunity lost.
