Official Asian Drama/Movie Thread! Hey RS'ers, I noticed quite a few Asian (Chinese, Taiwanese, Korean, etc) drama/movie reviews in the other movie thread, and I want to use this thread to compile together drama/movie reviews and suggestions. Off the top of my head, I recently watched: Triad 9/10 Cold War 9.25/10 The Bullet Vanishes 8/10 Natural Born Lovers 7.5/10 My Sassy Hubby 7/10 Currently watching A Great Way to Care 2. |
Merry-Go-Round 10/10 After This Our Exile 9/10 |
I watch NHK quite a bit. My favourites are Partners and the Jidaigeki's. Taiga Dramas have been pretty boring the last couple of years. Tenchijin was good and so was Ryomaden. As for Asadora, I couldn't get into Dr. Ume Chan, Jun and Ai, or this year's Ama Chan. Gegege no Nyobo is my all time favourite. Teppan and Carnation were OK. Anyway, I can go on, but doubt anyone follows this stuff. |
Hotel Deluxe - 百星酒店 - 8.5/10 - pretty funny at times... |
I'm a big fan of Korean films! Among my favorites: -Oldboy -Joint-Security Area (JSA) -The Host -My Sassy Girl -I Saw the Devil -Mr. Socrates (such a hidden gem!!) |
Young and Dangerous Reloaded 1/10. One of the worst HK movies I've seen in years. The movie is absolutely HORRIBLE, and it is a shame that they ruin the name/title of "Young and Dangerous" with such a bad movie. The plot, character dialogue/development, soundtrack, everything is just disappointing. If you're into triad movies, check out "The Triad" instead. |
does this include Bollywood/Indian movies as well? |
Being from HK, dramas and movies are basically bread and butter lol just out of my head of some movies: HK Infernal Affairs 8/10 Ip Man 9/10 Ip Man 2 7/10 Korea IRIS (both drama and movie) 8/10 The man from nowhere 7.5/10 |

Just started today on NHK (TVJapan), "My Wife is Ninja." I sometimes say that about my wife, LOLOLOL. She is stealth and the insults she throws my way sting like shuriken. As for the drama, it looks like it might become a hit. Only episode one, so who knows. |
Surprised no one mentioned speedy scandal yet. One of my favorite Korean movies. |
Full throttle 9.5/10, its a classic |

^ holy crap what a shitty movie. lack of action, lack of everythng i thought there was suppose to be some type of rape scene anyhoo... thank goodness i didn't pay to watch this shitty movie. |
^^ Apparently the one posted is not the Cat3 version. Even then, I doubt the Cat3 version is really that much better. About to rewatch Triumph in the Skies with my gf since she's never watcfhed it in anticipation for the 2nd one. |
Love in Time 8.5/10 |
These are all pretty much drama/romance... You are the apple of my eye - 7.5 (TW) Na xie nian, wo men yi qi zhui de nu hai (2011) - IMDb Oasis - 7.8 (KR) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0320193/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 You are my sunshine - 7.0 (KR) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0479773/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Except these: Shaolin soccer - over 9000! lol classic. Then there was, Kung-Fu hustle. The Flowers of War, a UK movie, but it's based in China. |
Masquerade - 8.5/10 One of my favourite actors, Lee Byung-hun, stars in this and he does not disappoint. Really good mix of humour and drama in this and the production is top notch. |
somewhat related, Fairchild/Talentvision are finally in HD currently available to Bell customers soon to be Telus customers as well, Shaw and Rogers though arent interested for now |
忠烈楊家將 - Saving General Yang 8/10 Good movie.. cast could have been better.. I like the chinese historic movies.. I usually try to watch them all... |
