The Two Sisters is a terrible movie. It is a Greatest Hits Album of horror movies.
Here are a few. Mostly action that put Hollywood genre movies in the shade.
Hanyo (The Housemaid) / Ki-young Kim (1960)
Chunhyang / Kwon-taek Im (2000)
Gongdong Gyeongbi Guyeok (Joint Security Area) / Chan-wook Park (2000)
Bom Yeoreum Gaeul Gyeoul Geurigo Bom (Spring, Summer,Etc) / Ki-duk Kim (2003)
Shi-Gun (Time) / Ki-duk Kim (2006)
Ajeossi (The Man From Nowhere) / Jeong-Beom Lee (2010)
Amsal (Assassination) / Dong-hoon Choi (2015)
The Age Of Shadows / Jee-woon Kim (2016)
Aknyeo (The Villainess) / Byung-gil Jung (2017)

Anything related to the Japanese occupation or the Korean War like Assassination, The Age of Shadows, and The Good, the Bad, and the Weird are great too.

This is what I've been told, In a Korean movie someone have to die to create a happy ending.
The few Korean movies I've seen since I heard about that, even if the hero could have just jumped a few feets, he dies, and the widow plants flowers at a grave or special spot when they first dated...

Teleadmin, put such morbid thoughts aside until you are 100% recovered (hopefully very soon).

The Handmaiden (8/10) is excellent - a three-way con-game involving a fake nobleman, an heiress, and a servant. The photo tells you how gorgeously it's filmed. Thought much less of Poetry (6/10). Though it has poignancy and a well-crafted ending, it's far too plodding.  |
