Rough Cut (2008)

Epoustouflant ce film !

Ce film est vraiment intense ! J'ai adoré le concept : un gangster est engagé pour le tournage d'un film afin de remplacer un acteur ayant été blessé. Ce qui est interressant, c'est que ce gangster lui, ne joue pas, il agit comme dans la vraie vie. Il doit partager son temps entre le tournage des scènes et ses affaires personnelles à régler (avec son gang).

Tout le film est très prenant, on ne s'ennuie pas un instant. A la fin, le gangster montre encore qu'il ne joue pas.
Pour de l'action, il y a de l'action ! Les acteurs sont très bons, le script du film et celui dans le film sont bons aussi ; bref, c'est un super film, original et très bien fait ; je le recommande.

Punch! This movie is like a punch. Weird description, I know.

There were a lot of clever, artsy, indy details built into this movie that I got a real kick out of:

1) They played up the fact that this is a movie with a movie in a very obvious and clever way.

2) So Ji Sub's name is Kang Pae (gangster) and Kang Ji Hwan's name is Su Ta (star).

3) The scripts for the "movie" in the shooting scenes were the actual script for the movie.

4) And the ending...

I loved the intensity of both Ji Sub and Ji Hwan, their acting and characters. I loved that Ji Sub always wore black and Ji Hwan wore white. I loved the spoiled angry child in Su Ta and the way he got in over his head so deeply. Kang Ji Hwan always impresses me..Always.

I loved So Ji Sub's anger...his pure rage. His character's desperation and desperate grab for something more in his life, something he wanted, to make a change. The frustration of his inability to understand what to do with it once he'd grabbed on. And how his past, his personality and his lot in life were like a greased palm that made it impossible for him to keep hold. And then the terrible acceptance...He doesn't have to say much. That is the beauty of his acting. (sorry fangirl)

Watch it for the punch...beginning, middle and end.
