these korean kinos are it nigga. matter of fact im bout to order some korean bbq to go with another korean kino
>>215139623I enjoyed it.Great acting.
Honestly thought it was shit and never got why people liked it (outside of the ending being somewhat of a surprise).
>>215139889>great actingHow can you tell unless you speak Korean?
>>215139623shit was KINO>>215139919you have a low iq. no doubt.
>>215139948Voice inflection. Emotion. Physicality. Facial expression. Have you ever watched a movie with subtitles before?
>>215139623One of my favorite horror movies ever made and one of the best Korean films as well. Love this movie, the last 30 mins or so after the banishing ritual is masterfully done.
>>215139919I agree. It doesn't hold a candle to the golden age of Korean kino which was from Shiri to the early 2010s.
>>215139623What a great film.
>>215140014That's like saying Nic Cage is the greatest American actor of all time. If you're a native English speaker you know how weird and stilted and unnatural his delivery and inflection sounds in English. If you're watching Nic Cage subbed in your language and don't speak English he must look like a tour de France according to your standards.
>>215140077Can you recommend some features from the older "golden" Korean age? I'm trying to think of some that are older that I've already seen, Memories of Murder is kino af, Oldboy-Vengeance trilogy...you're saying start with "Shiri" and then what?
>>215140170Cage is a legitimately great actor and you’re clearly a fool.
>>215140170I agree you can't grasp *every* nuance of the performance without understanding the language but there are aspects to good acting that you can still appreciate in a foreign film. Nicolas Cage also has had some memorable roles in his long career and is very celebrated, so that was a poor example, but I took your meaning.
>>215140170the expression is also "tour de force" btw. The Tour de France is a bicycle race lol
>>215139623>bout to order some korean bbq to go with another korean kinobased, very based
>>215140170>If you're a native English speaker you know how weird and stilted and unnatural his delivery and inflection sounds in English.I'm a native English speaker. Real English, American English. Not that bastardized "bo'o o wa'a" faggot English English. And Cage's delivery is better than that faggy Queen's English.
>>215140268Cage is a great example though. He's the most well known awful but great actor in Hollywood. A non-fluent English speaker isn't going to pick up on why Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans is a great performance and why Captain Corelli's Mandolin is an awful performance.
>>215140438I see the point you're making and concede you will miss some nuance in the actor's interpretation of the script without the subtext, intonation, pacing, etc. But line delivery isn't the only component of good acting, there's a lot more that goes into a strong performance that you can identity and appreciate even in a foreign tongue. Go watch a Choi Min Sik movie for example. You don't need to know Korean to know that guy can act his ass off.
>>215140545>Choi Min Sik Sure, he's acting his ass off and I can tell he is, but is it Leaving Las Vegas or The Wicker Man? He's great in Oldboy and I Saw the Devil but I can't tell which performance is better because I don't speak Korean.
>>215140746I guess it's subjective in the end. I have watched dozens of foreign films, maybe several hundred idk, and I feel moved by some performances and entirely unmoved by others. You can tell convincing/natural acting vs wooden and unnatural without knowing the language. Emotion, chemistry, naturalism, body language, charm, charisma are all universal concepts irrespective of language imo.
>>215139948Well, What this guy says,>>215140014But also.Because the acting, was good.
/kr/ board when
>>215140988>picrelSaved thnx. I would add The Piper to horror
>gook spammer posting his typical imageskill yourself
>>215140170You know nic cage won 2 oscars for lead actor back when the award was worth a shit right?
