Beautiful and Twisted Take on Alice in Wonderland

The casting for this film was definitely perfect, and they each performed their roles too well. The music, visuals and acting was stunning. It's a very beautifully shot film, and there was a lot of keen eyes for details. This is one of those types of films you /really/ have to pay attention to to understand the progressing story. It's not too fast or too slow paced, by at least 20 minutes into the film you're already in another world, but there are a lot of hints to look out for, especially of how the movie was put together. The movie starts off a bit tense, but the phycological horror aspect catches up quick before you even realize. It was my first time watching Hong Jong Hyun in a movie, and he was soo adorable as Hwan! Overall, this movie stays as one of my /weirdly/ comfort movies... and I've already watched it 3 times. Definitely high rewatch value for a stunning film.

Cliché Vampire Film With An Excellent Cast

I'm typically a sucker for anything vampire related, especially movies and dramas....so I was instantly drawn to this movie and the familiar cast. The visuals and effects were amazing, as well as the music and acting . But some scenes seemed too fast paced to the point I was lost in the plot and just, unrealistic?? I mean, I know its a supernatural movie so of course it's going to be fiction, but some scenes were just too awkward or weird to watch, and I didn't really like the traditional old-timey take on vampirism. I was left a bit unsatisfied when finishing the film, I guess it's because I started it with high expectations, ignoring the previous reviews I've read. I originally gave this an 8 rating, but after some thought I truly give this a 7.5.
Overall, it's not a bad movie. I did genuinely enjoy most parts of the movie and the thriller aspects, but I wish some scenes were a bit different, and I honestly probably won't rewatch this anytime soon. Maybe one day to see if my opinions change :p
