the message of the movie is important, but when it’s only a message and nothing else it’s just extremely boring.
there was next to no character development at all; jiyoung’s husband, who everyone praise for being sweet and attentive is just another spineless man who happens to be morally better than those men around him and love his wife and do the bare minimum of trying to help her, but that’s literally it. he doesn’t defend her from his relatives, he doesn’t help her at home, he does nothing but whines about how sad his wife is and how he should do something and then doesn’t. his family too, they appeared, spewed their venom (especially his mother) and disappeared from the movie. like, what was the point? make jiyoung sadder? everything else was doing the work just fine. maybe i’m just nitpicking, but man, it’s so lazy. by the end of the movie literally nothing changed in the husband or his family.
her family is somewhat better, i think i liked her mother the most out of all characters. she evoked the most emotions in me out of everyone. dad was horrible, and not just because he’s meant to be horrible, but because he also had this little scene where he reflects on his actions after his wife’s crash-out and.. nothing. we literally don’t even see if jiyoung received the medicine he ordered for her, dude also just disappears. sibling’s dynamic was sweet, for the entirety of 10 seconds they had, lol. it baffled me that they showed that little moment where jiyoung’s brother comes to cater to her for a bit, but absolutely nothing with older sister. i’m saying the characters in this movie are so forgotten it may be the first time when i’m so bothered by it.
cinematography is bland, everything is so bland, actors acting is nothing special, this movie has its emotional moments but like. soooo boring. and nothing was resolved, we didn’t see it. leaving everything up to audiences interpretation is lazy. waste of the time lowkey
