Night Flight (2014)

Minhas expectativas estavam altas por conta das avaliações boas e, no fim, fui decepcionada.
O ponto alto da história é, com certeza, a realidade retratada no enredo. O preconceito, o bullying, violência, homossexualidade, estupro... enfim, as críticas sociais são gritantes em todo o filme. Entretanto, para o MEU gosto pessoal, foi bastante difícil assistir algo que parecia não ter propósito. Acho importante os filmes, especialmente em países mais tradicionais, mostrarem a dura realidade da minoria da população, mas me incomoda quando parece não haver um motivo para mostrar esses assuntos tão delicados e complexos.
Chegou um ponto em que eu nem sabia mais o porquê de estar assistindo. Até além da metade do filme, as cenas chocantes se tornam repetitivas. É muito demorado para responder determinadas questões e são duas horas de filme que se arrastam longamente. Por conta disso, apesar de eu achar extremamente relevante os assuntos tratados na história, coloquei o mínimo do rewatch value porque eu não assistiria esse filme novamente por vontade própria.
O final foi satisfatório, apesar dos pesares. A atuação dos atores fez valer a pena a cena final e deu até um gostinho de não ter sido um tempo perdido, mas não me agradou como um todo.

I stumbled upon this movie, a few days ago, and didn't think much before starting. What I ended up with was a beautifully executed movie, unlike one i'd ever seen before. It was at the very end of the movie when i cried as if I was about to die. I haven't cried like that in a really, really long time, and I have never had those emotions towards a movie. The whole story itself was beautifully executed, and the actors were definitely an amazing fit for their roles. I have felt that loneliness before but I didn't have anyone with me. I was glad at the ending but I cried a lot because it reminded me of myself in a lot of ways. The song that played at the end also hurt me a lot, it was happy and I was sad and it was just a mix of chaos inside of me. This movie should be recognized more, it was truly spectacular, I went in with an empty heart and mind, and i came out with a face full of tears and a heart as hard as stone. This movie will always be memorable to me. I thank the directors, and the actors for preforming such a wonderful movie. Please watch it, if you stumble upon it. I promise it will be worth your time.

Another amazing BL Korean movie.

This one is different. This one will give you mixed emotions, and it is also dark.

This is a big eye-opening movie because we all know that LGBT is a very sensitive topic around the world and people need to start with accepting people who are different.

I love the plot. It's not like other cheezy romantic BL movies. This one is different. It leads to a lot of lessons. The ending is also good.

Gotta love the character development of the 2 amazing actors and their chemistry. Different chemistry, which I love. Job well done!

OH MY GOD
GUYS I CANT I CANT THIS IS TOO MUCH!!
I think my heart is broken. It feels like it’s split in half... no way no no how can it end like that :((( I loved this movie so much, the soundtrack, the realism of it all... hell even the acting of the characters who were assholes and deserve death were jaw dropping.

SPOILERSSSSS

COUGH the dude who was best friends with Juju, I can’t be bothered to remember his name. What a PRICK. I never understood WHY he would out his best friend like that just to “fit in”. Yeah. He was being threatened but bruh he really said “fuck this friendship.'' Also, i don't understand what Juju did wrong for him to out him like that, he said he ''betrayed him first'' but I didnt catch it, maybe he noticed Juju was fixated on Gowoon and felt jealous? Or, he is just a plain homophobe?

Right from the beginning, I knew Gowoon cared forJuju . I knew it. Or feelings may have developed later on because at the start he was disgusted with Juju thinking of him more as a friend and that’s valid, if you’re straight I suppose. But nah..... they went through thick and thin and Gowoon questioning his sexuality even though he didn’t say it was so sad because you don’t want to believe it but the heart truly wants what it wants. Gowoon may have been a fucking asshole sometimes and he really did piss me off. Like, I’m not sure if Juju never got raped, he may of proper showed that he cared. That’s my opinion, but it’s like he had reality check when he realised Juju was in danger and how no one can fucking touch him but him. And honestly those kids who raped Juju should be in JAIL. PERIOD. Yeah Gowoon fought everyone off it was basically a massacre without death but it was for a damn good reason. I wish everyone knew what those kids did to Juju so it could justify why Gowoon blew up like that.
Anyways, I’m too sad to continue. The build up was great And I loved this movie so much. It's not just something you watch and never think about. There's multiple messages in the movie that you have to figure out on your own. It felt genuinely real. I just hope they had a happy ending , even if we don’t know.

The story is great. It is really an eye-opening piece that reflects what other gay people experiences growing up in countries where LGBT representation is not yet fully established. I like how the characters progressed and how their respective pasts were presented and it intertwined with the current events. Its a bitter-sweet movie if you'd like to ask me. While I have nothing to complain on how great the story and the actors is I just wish that more Korean Gay movies would have a happy ending, why? Because:
- LGBT people to this date is being prosecuted for being who they are in other places and I personally think that the premise has already been used every time
- I have to admit that not all the time its a happy day but compared to heteros LGBT people already acknowledge that not all love stories are bound to have a happy end which will lead me to my last point that is:
- I hope that they'd produce more movies that has happy endings as we like to have a break from the sadness too

Basically sums up my opinion on why I rather the rewatch value 6 even if its a gold.

A Must see I have to say. I've watched it many times, especially the end lol.
