Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) 51% EDIT “What we got was a decent film, but not one to carry the torch of the Star Wars legacy.” – Korea Herald Dec 31, 2019 Full Review Ashfall (2019) 73% EDIT “Ashfall is not a masterpiece by any standard, but directors Lee Hae-jun and Kim Byeong-seo managed to create a decent disaster film that is up to standard in every way, from good acting and character-building to a solid storyline and suspense.” – Korea Herald Dec 20, 2019 Full Review Forbidden Dream (2019) EDIT “The central friendship and the characters' mutual respect for their shared dream are depicted beautifully in what may be the best chemistry between two leads of all the Korean films released this year.” – Korea Herald Dec 20, 2019 Full Review Jumanji: The Next Level (2019) 72% EDIT “Overall, it is a standard sequel with a somewhat charming world and not-bad-at-all acting.” – Korea Herald Dec 12, 2019 Full Review The Two Popes (2019) 89% EDIT “The Two Popes director Fernando Meirelles has created a perfectly riveting drama brought to life by the fascinating back-and-forth performance by Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce.” – Korea Herald Dec 6, 2019 Full Review BLACK MONEY (2019) EDIT “Director Chung Ji-young's earlier work National Security was full of heart and righteous anger, but I don't think anger was the proper path to take in this particular picture. It doesn't work that well when things aren't so black and white.” – Korea Herald Nov 5, 2019 Full Review The Divine Move 2: The Wrathful (2019) EDIT “One-dimensional characters, comic-bookish exaggeration, numerous plot holes and no real twist -- yet the film still manages to be quite fun with adrenaline-pumping action and excitement.” – Korea Herald Oct 31, 2019 Full Review Terminator: Dark Fate (2019) 70% EDIT “Pro: Terminator: Dark Fate is the best in the Terminator franchise other than the first two films, which were both amazing. Con: That's not saying much considering what followed those two magnificent flicks.” – Korea Herald Oct 25, 2019 Full Review Rambo: Last Blood (2019) 26% EDIT “It felt like a rehash of the old, formerly beloved character trying to relive his glory days. Simply put, the franchise has overstayed its welcome.” – Korea Herald Oct 17, 2019 Full Review The Journalist (2019) 100% EDIT “While it is not really a standout film, I admire the director and cast for boldly raising the film's core issue.” – Korea Herald Oct 17, 2019 Full Review Joker (2019) 68% EDIT “There are films that push you to the limit, have you on the edge, and then there's Joker, starring the brilliance of Joaquin Phoenix.” – Korea Herald Sep 27, 2019 Full Review The Battle of Jangsari (2019) 38% EDIT “Kwak is a talented veteran auteur. But he has a tendency to go one step too far in depicting the emotions and dramas of his films.” – Korea Herald Sep 27, 2019 Full Review Man of Men (2019) EDIT “Surprisingly, the buddy flick starring Sol Kyung-gu and Cho Jin-woong turns out to be pretty fun, buoyed by a mix of drama and comedy -- albeit pretty much by the book -- from the accomplished actors.” – Korea Herald Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Yesterday (2019) 63% EDIT “From a film perspective, neither the structure, the narrative nor the plot is really impressive. What is impressive is the music.” – Korea Herald Sep 19, 2019 Full Review The Bad Guys: Reign of Chaos (2019) EDIT “Simply put, this is Lee at his best.” – Korea Herald Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Tune in for Love (2019) EDIT “I wouldn't say the film would blow anyone's mind, but it's sure to give a warm, fuzzy feeling to those who share the same frequency.” – Korea Herald Aug 29, 2019 Full Review 47 Meters Down: Uncaged (2019) 44% EDIT “If you are into straightforward slasher films starring great white sharks with over-the-top action, and you can look past all the obvious flaws, this may be your cup of tea.” – Korea Herald Aug 23, 2019 Full Review EDIT “While it aimed to be funny and original, and its props were quite creative, its narrative was sloppy and the parade of cheap and uncomfortable jokes unimpressive.” – Korea Herald Aug 16, 2019 Full Review Ghost Walk (2018) 83% EDIT “Yu Eun-jeong explores an existential question in her first feature film through the eyes of someone who is no longer among the living.” – Korea Herald Aug 8, 2019 Full Review The Battle: Roar to Victory (2019) EDIT “Every once in a while we get what I like to call "face-palm movies": Films with great intentions and worthy causes that are made so poorly that I end up feeling guilty for hating them.” – Korea Herald Aug 5, 2019 Full Review EDIT “The documentary prompts strong emotion through the power of Kim's life, and notable moments in her struggles.” – Korea Herald Jul 30, 2019 Full Review The Divine Fury (2019) 44% EDIT “While it has some good elements and can be fun from time to time, the unoriginal plot and concept, flat storyline and uninteresting characters do not really heighten expectations for the upcoming films.” – Korea Herald Jul 25, 2019 Full Review Exit (2019) 83% EDIT “For every flaw, the flick had many more enjoyable elements.” – Korea Herald Jul 18, 2019 Full Review The Culprit (2019) EDIT “A jumbled pile of pretentious plots that are convoluted and confusing for all the wrong reasons.” – Korea Herald Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) 91% EDIT “A delightful teenage coming-of-age tale with great characters, good humor and an upgrade in action, serving both as a wistful epilogue to the "Infinity Saga" and as a prologue to the chaotic new world awaiting the audience in phase four of [the MCU].” – Korea Herald Jul 3, 2019 Full Review
