Wow! Such a good movie.
The Worst Film Ever
Powerful
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
People compare this movie to recent comedies, made in the states which are far inferior. This is one of the best, if not "the best" comedies in this genre of Porky's, Animal House, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, American pie, etc... It's made in Korea during their height of their filmmaking. The scenes are powerful, laugh out loud funny, and fast. The acting is natural and the comedic rhythm is fluid. The gags are exaggerated at times, but completely satisfying. The change in mood towards the end can almost bring you to tears, which is impressive for a movie that can make you laugh harder than most. It manages to cover the entire range of human emotions disguised in a silly premise. This is superior filmmaking on all levels. It is a story told many times, told better. High art, disguised in a commercial medium. I love this movie. Tonight I watched it for the fourth time and it is just as entertaining and touching as the first time.
Sex is Zero centers about the development of an awkward college student and his unrequited love for a beautiful girl out of his league, successively delivering the usual dose of masturbation jokes and penis cracks along the way. On the surface, it's a debauched concoction of raunch and libido, blending together to give frat boys another way to find hilarity in promiscuity.However, at the same time, it cleverly meshes smut and sincerity to form a surprisingly charismatic outcome. A sex comedy --with depth, at that. Something that American Pie and other films in it's genre lacks.While the film explores the sexual exploits of the surrounding characters, it also digs into the plausible outcomes of the loose lifestyles they exude. There are times where it drops it's crude humor long enough to give the film a weighty, sedate factor as well-- making the overall outcome a memorably genuine movie, worthwhile for horny frat boys and curious onlookers alike.
This has to be one of the WORST movie (if one could call this junk a movie) that i have ever seen in my life. The hole film is a sequence of imbecilic behavior. I truly found it disturbing and personally i don't see how any person that has at least a bit of reason could possibly enjoy this cheap mimesis of Hollywood low budget teenage movies. The only positive thing about this film is that it provides a very clear image of what happens when young people don't use proper protection in they're sexual life.Although it can probably be used as sexual education material, i think it's highly overrated.
The movie is so hilarious that I appreciate so much the scriptwriter's superb skill of making funny.And the value of this movie doesn't only exist in funny aspect,but also appropriately display the love life and sex need of Asian younger.Some people do not understand the abortion scene,feeling wield and unacceptable.I have to say different cultural backgrounds create the discrepancies between opinions with regard to what if an unmarried girl gets conceiving when the boy claims clearly he doesn't want to take a responsibility of taking care the mother and unborn baby.As we can see,the way that girl dealt with her unborn baby represents most Asian girls'attitude,without choices,they have to do so. The mother 'furious reaction is,although inhuman, because her daughter's unconsciousness which really hurt the heart of a mother.I do not mind I'm Chang-Jeong's exaggerated act.He portrays perfectly.
