1. Along with the Gods: The Last 49 Days
Korean Movie - 2018
This one is just as brilliant as the first film. I really enjoyed watching this one and the plot it offers. Instead of focusing on the human soul and how the underworld works, this film focuses on the grim reapers, their past and the worst human pain and emotions. Therefore, I really appreciated watching this one. Also, the plot twists are great. I deffo recommend watching this film; though, you should certainly watch the first film beforehand.
Watched: April 2024.

2. Believer
Korean Movie - 2018
It's an alright drama. Interesting enough, though I am not the greatest fan of any of the characters. I also guessed early on who the the bad people were, so I was just in for the action. It is watchable, just not a masterpiece, in my opinion. However, people on the film's page loved the film, so if you are intrigued, give it a try.

6. Impossibility Defense
Japanese Movie - 2018
The film is not really good but also not terrible. I'd say it is watchable but deffo not a masterpiece or anything. The theme is interesting and the message that there are no pure murder motives is really good; however, I believe that the execution is a lacking. I only found out that there is a prequel after finishing the film; though, I am not interested in watching it. I also believe that the impossibility defense is a bit lacking. I don't know. Maybe it is a good film, but I am not quite convinced. I don't know if the prequel has the same story or anything. I know that both leads are in there, but they only meet for the first time in the film. I believe that this could have been a series so they could have expanded on the cases and the chase. This is all a bit too fast-paced. There was too much happening within 106 minutes. Also, the acting should be improved. It's a weak 6/10 for me. They deffo could have done better.
Also, they set this up for another film or series but so far nothing else has been released. So, the ending isn't even satisfying.
The outro music was nice.Watched: November 2024.

8. Miss Baek
Korean Movie - 2018
I actually liked the film. There were lots of infuriating scenes and some that I hope are not the norm (e.g. the police work). I can deffo recommend this film to anyone who likes difficult topics, such as child abuse, and some raw characters. Some really good actors are in this film as well. A well-deserved 8/10. The story was good, the actors were good, the characters were well-written (though infuriating).
Watched: September 2024.

9. Ordinary People
Korean Movie - 2018
Ordinary People was fairly... ordinary. Don't get me wrong, it was a nice watch but I kind of expected more. I would recommend this as a thriller if you don't have better thrillers on your watchlist.

15. The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion
Korean Movie - 2018
I quite liked this film. It has good action, good plot twists, a good plot and good characters. Some characters seemed a bit stupid at times but I could still appreciate the characters. The film has blood and gore and includes an almost over-powered FL. Some things could have been improved but generally I truly enjoyed watching the plot unfold. Also, while FL's best friend annoyed me at times, she is a true one.
The Witch: Part 1 keeps you hooked and guessing. It keeps you rooting for the FL.
I'd deffo recommend this to anyone liking supernatural thrillers and not minding blood and gore.
A well-deserved 8/10. It could have been higher if the flaws with the characters would have been solved. Still 100% recommendable, though.Watched: October 2024.
