All I have to say is that the series was really good, especially if you're looking for a drama that takes away all that cutesy love business and solely leaves you in suspense. The drama has the right element of horror that it doesn't keep you up at night, but it still scares the living daylights out of you...it is quite creepy. However, I felt as the series progressed, the drama became less creepier.

The script writing was great. It made me further interested and kept me interacted. The music was great as well. Like in horror films, the music plays at the right moments keeping the movie creepy, the same goes for this drama. The music cuts out at the right time giving way to dialog or, in some cases, screams.

I gave the rewatch value an 8, since this is a series that you can watch over again. You can watch the show at episode 4 without watching the previous three episodes and still feel up to date with everything because of the way its written.

For people who watched the anime, some may be disappointed because the actress for Enma Ai is older than she is supposed to be. However, Sayuri does such a good job portraying Ai that you don't even notice the age discrepancy. Everything fits neatly together. I loved the drama and am now currently watching the anime to see how they differ side by side.

You know that any movie that starts out with Stand by Me by Ben E. King is gonna be a good one. That's all I gotta say. An appropriate and well chosen song to introduce this movie. The movie is, in a gist, about a group of outcasts and how they come together to do something incredible and truly figure out what they value in their lives. The actors were brilliant and excellently executed their roles well. Koike did a really good job in portraying the main protagonist who makes everyone evaluate their lives. Tamaki does a great job in portraying his friend, the anti-hero. And lastly, Kuriyama does a great job in acting bubbly, but still mysterious.

The script and story are original in their elements. Personally, I love anything to do with superpowers, so when I heard of this movie, I jotted it down on my list to watch later. Now, it has become one of my favorites. The plot leaves the audience in suspense and wondering what will happen. Finally, the ending leaves you in content, satisfied, but still wishing for more. You're wishing for more not because the story isn't neatly wrapped up, but because you'll fall in the love with the characters that you'll want to see more of them.

I put the music as nine because it wasn't freaking amazing, but it was just quite good, just not amazing. There is one song in the movie that I feel could have been better. In the movie, out of nowhere, an English song with an Irish feel to it plays. Personally, I feel the song was out of place.

Finally, the rewatch value is merely an eight, because it's a movie that you may want to see again, but then again, it could also be a movie that you are content with seeing just once.

Overall, I thouroghly enjoyed the movie and recommend this movie to anyone who likes to watch films questioning human nature, involves supernatural/superpowers, has a heart-warm feel, has a bad boy, and/or deals with character identity crisis.

I had always meant to watch this, but due to work and other things, I always put it off. After a while, and a weekend with nothing to do, I found myself sitting at my computer bored. After looking through my dramalist for a movie to watch, this was at the top of my list. Without much of a thought, I instantly put it on. All I have to say is, I don't regret it.

The actors are amazing and are able to portray their characters well. Even the minor roles do their job extremely well and put loads of emotion and humor in their roles. Joo Jin Mo does a great job portraying Sang Jun, an agent whose first priority is his job rather than his love life. Kim Ah Joong plays the female lead who undergoes surgery to get the one she loves, but in the end, the surgery plays an even greater role in her life and makes her re-evaluate her goals. For their great acting, I gave them a ten. Casting did a magnificent job in choosing the actors and I can't imagine anyone better. Everyone on set had great chemistry.

The music was fantastic. You may recognize Blondie's "Maria", which was done extremely well, and boy, does Kim Ah Joong have lungs! She can sing! The rest of the music is great and may make you want to download onto you're mp3!

Rewatch value is definitely a ten. At first, I was going to put a nine, but the day after I watched this movie, I had to watch it again, just because it's that great. For a movie to do that, it deserves a ten.

Overall, the movie is a 10. Watch this movie, don't regret it, and love every bit of it. If you're looking for a movie with a good message, great music, great script, great directing, and great cinematography, I HIGHLY recommend checking this movie out!

I'm going to admit it, the only reason I watched this movie was to see Kim Jeong Hoon. After watching him in Goong, I wanted to see him play a good guy. I have to say, this little breath of fresh air movie delivered! His acting wasn't amazing, but it was done really well. Alongside Ryu Hyun Kyung, the two created great chemistry. The plot added to the suspense and both actors delivered quite well. The story deserves a ten because the plot is original and it didn't end horribly, but on a good note. It left the viewer satisfied.

I gave the music a six not because it was horrible music, but because of it's quality. The music wasn't original, but was scores of well known classical pieces from Tchaikovsky, Bach, and other famous classical composers. The music was a bit...bland and it could have been better.

Finally, the rewatch value is a seven because it's one of those movies that doesn't need to be seen twice. It isn't exactly a classic, but it is a good movie and definitely something good to watch on a slow day.
