The first fifteen minutes I was in a complete state of "they all look alike".

Seriously, I was. And the way the film was cut didn't help. I had my keeper copy come in and saw it a second time and still can't decide if the detective really had sex with the "widow" or if it was his wishful thinking. Opinion?

Hey, I raised the point... there were many scenes in which my wife and I - tinear 08:22:51 08/26/07 (3)
looked at one another in puzzlement over which beauty was which.
If the director did this on purpose, which seems all but inevitable, it was a tad too clever and distracted and confused an already too complex love plot.
The "Basic Instinct" part also seemed a tad gratuitous... I mean, such a clever fellow couldn't figure it out? It's not like people leave their true personas at the bedroom door or anything.
- Actually, We were wrong not the director. Any Asian would be right with the film.... - mr grits 12:09:19 08/26/07 (2)
  Afterall, it was made in Korea where not all Asians look alike. So, the problem is squarely ours. That's what's so interesting about foreign film is seeing how different cultures express themselves. They are probably some American films that are just as confusing to other cultures because we all look alike.

    It's strange but after days of watching Asian films I think we look strange...
    - "They" seem to share a uniformity of shape and feature..... - mr grits 11:10:13 08/27/07 (0)
      Or, is that my "all look alike" talking?
