STORYLINE: 9/ 10
I do not think I had ever watched a live action that combined both horror and romance in a serious manner (for films such as Scream and Scary Movie do not count in my eyes). Spellbound did not disappoint in either genres; I mean it even had me in suspense of the plot after the disappointing turn around of the three way date. I found myself recalling “The Sixth Sense” movie which totally had me analysing both main actors as preparation of such plot twist. Thankfully they were both human, therefore able to die which was in turn played out (brief sadistic moment teehehehe).
CHARACTERS: 8.5/10
I added Spellbound on my to watch list due to the brief encounter of Lee Min Ki so I was anxious to watch him in something as a main lead which he totally delivered perfectly. The combination of a supernatural plot together with Lee Min Ki’s ghostly facial structure, he was the perfect candidate as lead.
ACTING: 9/10
And obviously let us not forget both Lee Min Ki and Son Ye Jin acting abilities are of actors that know how to lure their audience in (with compliments of a good script). Therefore, this movie was bound to captivate the view into a whirlwind of romantic hope with a hint of believable horror stunts/ graphics.
MUSIC: 6/10
I merely rate the music aspect pf the movie as a 6 not as a form of dislike but merely due to the fact that I was not provided enough to judge. I cannot really recall a moment of a song being played but they are moments where musical instruments are played which I believe were well placed for such scenes.
LIKED – Want I enjoyed the most and literally had me in stitches every time was Yoo Ri’s friend Min Jung (Son Ye Jin) and Yoo Ri getting drunk and ripping Jo Goo’s shirts (especially when he pulls out a spare one - PRICELESS). Additionally, the sexual comments were totally random that I could not help but laugh for until that point, I thought it was a PG rated movie as well as loved the originality of the storyline of the flashback in regards of the guardian angel necklace to explain the incident that changed Yoo Ri’s life.
DISLIKED – I would dislike Spellbound if they be no sequel :)
CONCLUSION:
You should watch this drama if you enjoy genres such as HORROR – ROMANCE – GOOD ACTING – GREAT PLOT – HUMOR – MISERY – FRIENDSHIP – DEATH – LIFE – CRIME SOLVING – GHOSTS – MAGIC – FICTION – SUSPENCE - CRYING – FLASHBACKS – LOVE STORIES.
