gashrocks This is my third time watching this movie and I finally decided to write a review.This is one such movie that you can go for when your mood is down and you want to watch a feel good movie. RomCom at its best. The lead actress Jun Ji-hyun does a fabulous job in portraying "The Girl". Cha Tae-hyun is funny and fits smoothly in his character. Even after so many years this movie remains one of the highest grosser movie of all time in Korea.I must say Koreans are too damn good when it comes to depicting emotions. P.S : For those who don't know Windstruck is like a prequel to this movie with the same actress in lead. The final scene in Windstruck kind of joins both the movie.
Predrag Sarac My friend recommended me this movie, six months ago, and last month I finally took some time and I watched it.At first, I was a bit skeptical, because movie was Korean, and I never watched anything but Hollywood movies.Anyway, to cut the story short, I'm so glad (and lucky) that "My sassy Girl" was my first Korean movie, because it opened to me a whole new world of movies in a best possible way, and now I am totally hooked on Korean and Asian cinematography in general.In the end, I gave this movie 10/10, simply because it made me realize what should romantic dramas be like in the first place, and how should they be made. So, in case that you are reading this short review, love romantic dramas, and haven't seen this movie, give it a chance. You will not be disappointed.
A_Different_Drummer If you have worked your way to this IMDb page then congrats, you have found not merely "the" original (before the sequels, and the Chinese and US knockoffs) but, in the opinion of this reviewer, "an" original, in the sense that, having seen a zillion romantic comedies from all other world, I cannot remember a story quite like this one. The charm, the novelty, here is that while the girl is pretty, there is no overt sexiness of any kind. In other words, this is a romantic comedy where the spell is weaved purely on metaphysical or psychological attraction. Maybe the closest analog is the Audrey Hepburn style film. But, this is important, Hepburn was a one of a kind actress; and the premise here, a premise that some reviewers have missed, is that ANY woman has the innate ability to present herself in such a way that men are literally overcome by a strange combination of confusion and desire. That was the premise of the original novel, and this film was faithful to it. I agree with the very first reviewer -- a perfect 10, a one of a kind, sequels and knockoffs notwithstanding.
mlevandoski28 I don't think I could have possibly enjoyed this film any more than I did. It was hilariously funny and still made me cry. I could relate to the characters, but their story was still fantastical to me. I usually enjoy romantic comedies, but I don't tend to consider them great films. This is a great film. The interactions between the two main characters were just so excellent, and I felt that I could truly understand what they were both experiencing. The only film I can think to compare it to is Annie Hall, but that isn't even a good comparison. I hope that non-Korean speakers can put aside the fact that they have to read subtitles during this, because that fact does not detract from the quality of this film whatsoever. 10/10, thoroughly enjoyed and absolutely recommended.
