Orion Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Having now watched the film, I am having some big worries. I hope the Korean writer can add some actual plot and characterization to this, because seeing a bunch of empty characters brooding around and carrying a grand total of 2 expressions all the time is not my idea of fun. It was way too in-your-face with its point and ended up feeling pointless and shallow. It was like an MV. A nice MV with pretty visuals, nice design and some dark themes with interesting dream sequences, but I want a movie. Not an MV. I kind of like knowing what is happening, what the characters want, think and feel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest retsuno Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Happy to hear the news, i hope we will get confirmation about this movie soon.KDW is so lucky to get chance work with some famous movie directors. Maybe after this, he can work with director like Bong Joon Hoo or Park Chan Wook.Credit KDW Gallery DCI understand japanese a little so just want to translate some part in his interview above :"Besides Tokyo, I also like NY and Paris. Sometimes I also go to Okinawa.In the past, I always went to the same places, but these days I want to go to a new place. Hawaii? I haven't been there.But because I heard it is really a good place, if I have girlfriend, I want to go there with her" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The file also included Kang Dong Won’s picture during grade school, which proved his handsome looks weren’t man-made.The segment also revealed Yoon Do Hyun’s school grades and childhood photo to his embarrassment.

Guest retsuno Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I wonder if he came to Cold Eyes VIP Premier or not...? Even though I see his name on the list of guests, but I don't see his pics at all.And what makes me think he came is because in news article there is comment from KDW for the movie.영화 상영 배우 강동원은 “시종일관 스릴 있고 긴장감 넘쳤다. 배우분들 연기도 너무 멋있었다. 올 여름 최고의 영화가 될 것 같다”Well, no surprise since he likes to hide.But I want to see him soon...

Guest AnJilaah Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Looks like he did went to the premier. Aside from the comment he made for the movie, articles are confirming his attendance. Though Im confuse since they are saying he was in the red carpet but we don't see any pictures of him at all.(I doubt he did but he is such a good ninja lol) http://news.nate.com/view/20130626n29090Im glad to hear about his whereabouts, I hope we can at least see the video for the VIP premier so we can see him. Judging by his message, looks like he enjoyed the film. Cold Eyes looks like an interesting film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Oh good heaven's no... Fujiwara!? What kind of connections does that guy have, honestly? He is a terrible actor and he somehow keeps getting main roles in good works. Goodness...Also, this whole remake craze is just beyond me. Why remake something so recent and good?Because some people don't like reading subtitles? Why not spend precious money and time on new things?
