Emily Cooped up on a Wednesday afternoon I was in the mood for a movie and I wanted to expand my horizons by watching a movie in a language other than English. I have been interested in Korean shows and music for the past year so I did some research for a well- rated, heart-warming comedy. "Miracle in Cell No. 7" was one of the first movies to pop up in my search and after reading various reviews on the movie, I searched for a version with English subtitles and made myself comfortable on the couch. Since this Wednesday afternoon just a few months ago, I have viewed this film at least six times and every single time I must prep myself beforehand for the tears that will be shed. Not only will you cry, you will sob into oblivion. What makes this movie so enticing is its ability to make you laugh and smile just as much as it makes you cry. The upsetting and frustrating situation that this family was put in gets more and more heart wrenching throughout the film but even in times of sadness, the cast manages to make you grin from ear to ear. I have recommended this film to a handful of people and every one of those people loved this film. I would not recommend watching this on a first date because this is the hardest I have cried ever.

jalalwr I don't know how to express my feelings about this movie.this make me cry from the beginning to the end and the last 10 minutes i could hold my self and ran away from the TV.This little girl is amazing and she made this movie fill of motions, and because she is a child and her father is half-witted, this like you drive with blind eyes don't know what is going on.thank you for this amazing movie and if the rate is more that 10 stars i will recommend 100 stars to rate it.I recommend all to watch it.Jalal

janetiples This is perfect for the upcoming Father's Day. The story is about the love of the daughter to her mentally challenged father. This is what we call the unconditional love. The movie will let you laugh, cry and realize the reality in our society. Imprisonment and sentencing death to innocent man is very common especially those who are poor and who cannot afford are the main victims of these. Heart melting and tear dropping movie. Two thumbs up for the good actors (especially to Mr.Ryu Seung-Ryong and Ms. Kal So-won, producers and the director.

Reno Rangan Like tween girls in Japanese anime, tween girls are in Korean live shot movies. There are plenty of movies had seen success on father-tween daughter or similar combo. Those were really cool comedies and some were action-thrillers. This is one of those kinda where it deals a mentally challenged father and his 6 year old daughter. It has been a fun filled movie with often character emotion strikes strongly.From the director of 'Champ' who again portrayed childish father and brave daughter relationship in this movie as well. There no much deviation in those two characters, only circumstances changes here. Lee is a mentally challenged of 6 year old mind who got a daughter with same age. He works in a supermarket and earns enough for his little family. They lead a regular smooth life like everyone until Lee gets arrested for a criminal offense. Now this child got no elders to take care after her father. How this innocent little girl fight for her father is what the movie portrayed in its remaining.It was a heartwarming family movie with equally fun and melodrama filled story. Frankly to say I did not like it as much as everybody else around me because the emotions looked a bit fake to me. To me it looked alike 'The Green Mile' with total changed scenario. Why am saying it mean I love emotional themes, it is one of my favourites. The kid performed very well though and the convincing father character. At least you might like it more than me because it's got lots of positive responds from movie goer everywhere. So what you are waiting for, give it a try.
