Windstruck (2004)
7/10
Two Films In One
30 August 2010
This film is about a rogue/overzealous police officer named Kyungjin (the very attractive Gianna Jun) who mistakenly takes a person in, thinking he stole a lady's purse. He is Myungwoo (Hyuk Jang), a new physics teacher in the local girl's school. They improbably become boyfriend and girlfriend and the first half of the film has a breezy quality, mostly comedic with some dashes of gritty action. The film turns sentimental in the second half, kind of unexpectedly. The closest I can enable some understanding is the Patrick Swayze film "Ghost". To say more would give the film away. Its a date movie, and it has its moments. Ms. Jun is a very good actress, she more than carried the film and she enjoys popularity in Korea. Be prepared to laugh and even to cry. Not great, it has its charms and it is worthwhile viewing.
