Beast (2022)
Disappointing!
Please do not waste the 1hr 32mins watching this movie. I thought I'd give it a chance as Idris Elba stars, but for me it was a total let down, very disappointing. Idris' American accent is a little off key here and there. The lion is quite scary with some jump scares, but overall the movie is unremarkable, and I was surprised to see Idris star in this movie. There were some decisions made by the father (Idris) or the eldest daughter that were totally unrealistic with a wild lion out to get them, and I found the eldest teenage daughter's accusatory, argumentativeness towards her father (Idris) really annoying!
Heat (2023)
Poor Acting - Danny Dyer Disappoints
To be fair, the story line is potentially a good one, and in my opinion the end result could have turned out much better, had they casted better actors (maybe the budget didn't stretch that far...). Sadly, it was really awful, the outcome is very disappointing.
It's basically Danny Dyer acting as cockney Mick Carter from East Enders, but instead of the Queen Vic he's now Down Under in Australia. How they came to the decision to pair Danny Dyer and Pia Miranda as a couple in this is beyond me, they are so poles apart, and it's just plain unrealistic!! I sooo wanted to enjoy this, but instead it was a bad joke on us, as it was a waste of time.
Un-myeong-cheol-eom neol sa-rang-hae (2014)
Good, gut wrenching romance
I enjoyed watching very much. I watched the Korean version, not realizing there is also a Japanese and Thai version out there. It really affected me emotionally - the chemistry felt real. There was excitement, joy, comedy, sadness, heartbreak, misunderstandings, it had it all. Although, I found the first scene at the Macau hotel a bit far fetched e,g., when she finds the 'water' bottle in the fountain and drinks from the bottle, not considering hygiene or it's content - In this day and age who would do that! The chemistry between the male and female leads was dynamite, with a very strong cast and some beautiful scenery. Well done.
