Virgin Snow at a glance is a love story between a Korean exchange student and Japanese high school girl. However it is so much more than that. Once you start to watch Virgin Snow from the start to finish you are able to feel the chemistry and vibrant emotions produced by both the main characters. Accompanied by music that is very soft like snow to heart broken sadness.

Things that I liked:

- Both the actors were able to convey there feelings not only towards each other, but to the viewers as well(especially towards me lol)

- The music used for this movie was perfect and added into the emotions produced by the actors/actresses

Things that i hated:

- Some of the parts in this love story was predictable(You know whats going to happen next T.T)



Still, this movie fails to amaze me in the way the actors were able to convey there feelings. I thought that this movie was great and I would definitely recommend this to anyone that's a fan of Korean/Japanese Romance Films ^.^

To put it bluntly, I\'\'m disappointed in this film. If this is supposed to accurately reflect the concerns and lifestyle of the average 23 year old female recent college grad, then the media is not far off when they declare my generation to be a petty, superficial, and selfish bunch.

After the climactic fall out between the friends, Yoo Min (Yoon Eun Hye) reveals to Min Hee (Yoo In Na) that she doesn\'\'t know her friends as well as she thought she did. The same can be said for this film: it tries too hard to be Sex and the City, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and The Devil Wears Prada, and ends up sacrificing its own identity. Despite its best efforts, it fails to capture either the life wisdom of SATC, the magic of Sisterhood, and the sympathy of Devil.

Supposedly it\'\'s the friendship among the four women that helps them to weather the storm of conflict. However, I found that friendship to be lacking. The first time we see all four together is at a club where they surround a table of drinks and proceed to bet on whether or not Hye Jin (Park Han Byul) will successfully bed a fellow club-goer. Other than that, the story follows the girls individually, reuniting them for a blow-out argument and then at the end for a rather unconvincing resolution. Apart from shopping and clubbing, the movie gives us no insight into why these four are friends to begin with, and without that, I found myself not caring whether or not they remained friends.

The story is ordinary. The acting is okay (I\'\'m beginning to think that Yoo In Na has fallen into the bubbly, airhead typecast). I can\'\'t recall a single song from this movie. Basically, this is a formula chick flick, written and acted by the book. For a chick flick to resonate with me, it doesn\'\'t have to be unique or clever, but it has to have heart; it has to make me feel something. This one is as empty and shallow as the four friends.

This movie is so silly, it's hilarious.

I stumbled upon it a couple of years ago, following the footsteps of Takeshi Kaneshiro. And like any great actor, he has chosen some third-rate roles before turning into the acclaimed star he is now - and rightfully so.



The beginning of the movie is promising, the fallen angel a common enough trait but well done and the interaction with the female lead pretty original. But the more the story unfolds - or perhaps I'd better say that it folds up - the more I found myself either laughing or raising my eybrows in puzzlement. I thought I would understand its meaning or purpose once watched to the end, but 2 years have passed and I'm still waiting.



The acting is average but the chemistry between the leads is good, so that if one is just looking for a cute love story and a decent kiss, this film might be appealing. But do not expect meaningful dialogues, some lesson to be learnt or a beautifully portrayed story because this film has nothing of the sort to offer.

It offers great views of Takeshi Kaneshiro's charms though, which in itself could be the one and only reason to watch this: sit, prepare pop-corn and drool. Period.



I can't remember the music for the life of me.



I don't think I'll re-watch this movie any time soon.

Even though this movie was slow, it was one of the best movies I have ever watched. I loved it. The story was amazing. The actors/actresses did the best job in their roles. The music fit perfectly. I will watch this over and over. I don't know if others will enjoy it as much as I did b/c it is very different from what is expected. When I read the synopsis I had a totally different pic of what would happen. I am glad that my imagination was not as well thought out as the actual movie. Enjoy this movie w/ an open mind b/c it is not filled w/ action or drawn out in drama fashion. I have to put this one on my fave list.

This was one of my first Chinese Martial Arts type movies. The storyline wasn\'\'t the best storyline and was relatively forgettable. However, it completely makes up for it with its outstanding fight scenes, like every good martial arts/kung fu movie does. The music was okay. And while i normally don\'\'t like rewatching movies, this one is one I definitely will just because it has such great fight scenes. Overall, i\'\'m giving this movie an 8. It\'\'s not the best movie, but it\'\'s not bad either. If you\'\'re a martial arts fan, you\'\'ll probably love this movie.
