Chocolat (2016) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A pair of different clowns
Inspired by the career of two real-life clowns who were famous around the early 20th century, French film “Chocolat” is an old-fashioned show business melodrama which is a little too rote and predictable at times. It often works whenever it … Continue reading
On the Beach at Night Alone (2017) ☆☆☆(3/4): As she wanders (and drinks)
Alternatively playful and melancholic, South Korean film “On the Beach at Night Alone”, the latest work from Hong Sang-soo, gives us a somber character study which amusingly resonates with what happened in its auteur’s personal life. To be frank with … Continue reading

The Light Between Oceans (2016) ☆☆(2/4): A tepid melodrama between love and guilt
While it is filled with melodramatic elements ready to be utilized, “The Light Between Oceans” feels tame and bland in its frustratingly low-key approach, and it remains inane and tedious even as it doles out several plot turns one by … Continue reading

Kong: Skull Island (2017) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Welcome to Skull Island
As a monster flick, “Kong: Skull Island”, another remake of the 1933 classic film “King Kong”, works to some degrees. Besides its gigantic titular monster, it serves us with various big creatures to watch, and it also shows some sense … Continue reading
Shin Godzilla (2016) ☆☆☆(3/4): Cheesy but terrifying
Even though it has been mostly stuck in the realm of B-monster movies for many decades since its first appearance in 1954, Godzilla has been quite an iconic monster figure to many of us. Although I have not watched any … Continue reading
Snowy Road (2015) ☆☆☆(3/4): Two girls in a sad, harrowing tragedy of war
The historical subject of South Korean film “Snowy Road” is one of many sad tragedies of the World War II. During that time, numerous Korean women were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese Army, and many of them could … Continue reading
