The Host Reviews

    Is this really a good movie?

    This isn't just a disaster movie, it's a movie against dark powers. Wow, it's up to you to get a good grade, hurry up and get a high score. I'm blown away, my heart is broken. Are black movies really good for the sake of black? Is a group of silly protagonists really good? I'm speechless anyway. In...

    The Host

    Visually stunning with a fantastic vibe throughout the film. The host is definitely not without its massive holes and plot holes (or simply I didn't understand them), but it doesn't seem to care as it delivers a truly memorable film. Love the humorous vibe throughout the film despite the grim...

    hidden monster

    괴물 literally means a monster, but the Han River monster is just a shell. The core is political metaphor and social satire, even better than the movie version of V Chou who only uses epigrams to bluff people. The real monster is hidden but it is self-evident that the US military, the Korean...

    Notes: Allusions to film history; implicit protest against government. Not as good as expected, but worth watching.

    Not as good as expected, but worth four stars. The monster effects aren't realistic enough to make you think it's not a special effect, but it's fine and looks expensive. Dolby sound, worthy of the audience ticket money. The CGI special effects of The Orphanage are used, and the special effects of...

    Dare to shoot

    At first, I thought it was a horror thriller.   Later, I thought it was a dark comedy film.   Then, I thought it was a literary film.   Later, I thought it was a political movie.   After watching the entire film, I had a feeling of indecision. But this feeling is not bad, it doesn't feel...

    Talk about Bong Joon Ho

    If you only watch Feng Junhao's movie once, your attention is mostly attracted by the entertainment and storyline in the film. If you can't see the details, it's basically not interesting, and intermittently watch his most famous "Memories of Murder" and "The Monster of the Han River" again. After...

    Lu Xun would say, this is a cruel drama

    I've never been too fond of sci-fi, fantasy, and magic-themed films. So "The Monster of the Han River" didn't watch it when it first came out, and I didn't plan to watch it. Coincidentally, I suddenly saw the English poster of "The Monster of the Han River", and it said "The Host", and I was...

    fight

    After reading "Monster", if I insist on saying a lot about special effects and human nature, I think it goes against my heart. Which movie went to Weta and couldn't make the effect like "The Lord of the Rings", generally speaking, it is already of a very high standard, so I wasn't particularly...

    heroic nature

    Although the protagonist of the story comes from an ordinary Korean family, no one regards this movie as a family ethics drama, and everyone goes for monsters. After watching it, the appearance of the monster has been blurred, and I think this is still a warm movie suitable for the whole family to...

    A movie I've been reluctant to spend time watching

    "The Monster of the Han River" should be a movie from a long time ago. I watched it in 2006, and it was very popular at that time. At that time, I didn't watch it because I read other people's comments. Many people said that it was not scary at all. So I always thought it was a horror movie. Just...
