What does Yea Forums think of Memories of Murder?

generic shit. the people who are promoting it on here constantly seem to have never seen a fucking asian movie before
even if that applies to you it's still boring and clunky
>the fucking retarded 12 year old or whatever is the suspect for half the movie

*pop* he ran on the train track how convenient

what part of that type of kick do you think is a 'drop'? look up drop-kick

I liked the bit where the cops were beating up the protestors

>dude dropkicking guy is so base-
>gets btfo by a fucking rusty nail
lmao what a loser

I hate K*reans

When you perform a dropkick your body drops to the ground.

Started off fantastic but devolved into weird melodrama shit. I guess that's part of Korean style but yeah, lost me in the final 45 mins or so.

Also one scene really confused me; when the woman gets caught in the rain by the power plant. Two questions:
1)Who called her and told her to meet there? Is the film implying she knew the killer personally and he asked to meet her there?
2) What's with the big crescendo/cue for the chase at the reveal of the power plant? The music goes crazy and she starts running as soon as it's revealed and the cinematic syntax of it just makes no sense to me

Please some autsimo user answer this for me because obviously it's impossible to google

Is it just me or does a lot of Korean films seem to lose quality or steam whenever it's nearing the ending?
It always starts promising, sleek and stylish and then towards the end it doesn't seem just as good. There are exceptions of course.

>What's with the
Korean cinema "logic" is inscrutable gooble-de-gook even worse than japanese

Koreans can't act.

Am I the only person on Yea Forums that liked?

Don't even watch this trailer I linked, just watch it blind.

best ending of all time. he found the killer, he looked into his soul, he just didn't get to see him looking back.

pretty clearly a dropkick

oldboy is really overrated, not baiting

do you think the killer jerks off to this movie?

absolutely. the director mentioned how he knew the killer was the type of person who could not resist watching it, at least out of vanity. He is in part speaking to the killer with the film.

I told a Korean girl that this was my favorite movie 3 years ago and we're getting married in 6 months

I hate u

Big F. Actual korean or westernized? No one in the entire world is as annoying and stuck up like actual korean females.

Actual. Westernized ones almost completely reject their culture

Close to being a great ending but the fucking cop out cliche shit of her saying "he as just.......normal :O" cripples it

this

>the fucking retarded 12 year old or whatever is the suspect for half the movie
He's only a suspect because the detectives didn't want to do their job. All they cared about was padding the record

1. If I remember correctly her husband called her or she called him. He worked at the power plant. So she was going there to brinf him stuff

2.She obviously noticed someone watching her and skulking in the grass. And given the hysteria there was about the serial killer, she obviously put two and two together. The camera pans a sneak peek at the killer the moment he attacks her

You live in Korea, or is she in the West? I spent a year there and studied korean for a year and a half before. I had a lot of fun crushing hairy slanted puss, but youre a braver man than I signing up for the long haul.

memories of murder is my favorite korean movie, so at least i know you have decent taste in film.

>She obviously noticed someone watching her and skulking in the grass
Yeah but I'm talking about how it's all suspense up until she turns to look at the power plant, then panic mode kicks in. It felt like the film was implying her seeing the power plant is what made her panic. Although now I think about it maybe seeing the power plant as a safe place kicked in her flight instinct? She runs towards it IIRC

Is this movie basically the 'Zodiac' of Korea?

Sort of but not really

She moved to the West to study at my college and we got partnered on a bunch of projects. I've tried being with black, white, and other Western hoes, but they make me want to jump off a cliff. She's chill and her family was oddly accepting of me

EXprain

You mean hollywood films?

does reading up on the background of this movie really spoil it? i mean i suppose it would assume the audience would know the basics but maybe not some things

It's pretty terrible. People put it on their "list of good Korean movies" just so there list isn't only Oldboy and Train to Busan and that one where the grandma becomes young (which are all shit as well).

>Truly I will forever be haunted by these memories. These Memories of Murder™.

Left the theater immediately after this

It has one of the best ending ,dude

Its just few contrarian keep posting

nobody thinks Train to Busan is a kino Korean film.

When's the blu ray coming out?

>oddly accepting of me
If you're a white guy who comes from a decent family with above average genes you're like the holy grail to them

>where the grandma becomes young
>Miss granny

Are you retarded?
Its like saying just some hollywood capeshit is representative of American film

I liked it, it's entertaining. Obviously not particularly good, but I didn't get the impression that it was taking itself that seriously so it's fine as long as it manages to be fun.

I've heard so much praise for it shit's unreal it was just a basic zombie flick and the zombies weren't even intresting which is the whole point

SEA monkey

I'm black and from a decent family

Its quality zombie flick

My favorite film

>he found the killer, he looked into his soul, he just didn't get to see him looking back.
explain to a brainlet please

And yet it's on so many "best Korean film" lists, even here on Yea Forums. Fuck you. Don't reply when you don't know what you're talking about.

Why would you buy 1) physical media and 2) of absolute garbage?

>Its like saying just some hollywood capeshit is representative of American film
*It's
*Hollywood
*film.

Did you watch parasite?

the looking into one's eyes and seeing their truth and knowing they are innocent or guilty is a motif in the film. The main character begins by believing he has this gift, then throughout the film, doubts it until he feels he has lost this imagined power.
The film is based on real murders for which the killer was never found. The director has said than he knew the actual killer would watch it. The ending was meant to have the protagonist represent Korea looking at the killer in the audience directly and knowing his guilt. It's a small act is symbolic justice. It was a way for the director to, through his art, stare judgingly at the killer.

Yep. It's an emotionless piece of shit, and anyone who praises it needs to get their head checked.

How did you watch it?
>anyone who praises it needs to get their head checked.
Literally all critics praised it, man. Its my one of the most anticipated film of the year

>How did you watch it?
With my eyes.
>Literally all critics praised it, man.
Okay, I'm done with you, because you either think acting like a retard is "trolling," or it's not an act. Bye.

ah thanks man. That makes sense to me. I can see the directors motives but to be honest I bet the killer got off about having a movie made about him anyway.

Bait

Its not even released

Are you in the US? How mixed race are you? I'm wondering because I'm engaged to a mixed girl and I wonder what you would call black? One drop rule, or is it just an eye test? I don't know if my kids are gonna be obviously mixed or what, and I'm kinda worried about them not feeling accepted anywhere.

/pol/ logged off after this reply lol

The Wailing was pretty surreal when I figured out where it was going toward the very end.

You think the real killer watched it?

Even better brr when?

Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance is the patrician's choice

This film unironically splashed water in my face into the realization that life is fleeting and you should go after the things you want right now if you want them
also its kino

The investigation team in this movie were worse than the actual killer

200% kino

10/10 in my opinion.

Not him but 기생충 (Parasite) came out months ago here in Korea, and probably some other countries as well. If it's not out in your country, too bad so sad, but not everyone lives where you live. I haven't checked but pretty sure you can torrent it if you search it by its Korean name and use Korean sites (some of the Korean torrent sites will require you to sign up, which you won't be able to if you can't read Korean and don't have a Korean ID number). Could probably try Chinese or Russian sites as well. I mean, the movie was pretty popular at least here in Korea so the chances some other user has seen it are pretty good.
If you're expecting it to be the greatest movie ever, goddamn are you in for a disappointment. I'm not saying it's terrible, but it's like a 5 out of 10 in my book.

overrated because Americans (and others) think they're great for watching gook movies like this and Oldboy.

>This film unironically splashed water in my face into the realization that life is fleeting and you should go after the things you want right now if you want them

What?

Imagine how much money and time that gook wasted on English lessons just to write that fucking incomprehensible gibberish and share a laugh with me at his expense.
