Audience Member The best Korean movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member just can't stop watching Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member More than enough film length, adequate plot line twists & turns, lack of momentum. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member I enjoyed this film a lot, it could have been longer and have been a much more rounded film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Even though it has a tragic end, it maintains interest with its palace intrigue and the role of superstition in politics of the day. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Song Kang Ho is pretty amazing as always, and I liked all the intrigue. Also took a very tragic and interesting turn I didn't see coming. Starts off very lighthearted and becomes intense a bit too jarringly, but still pretty effectively. All in all, good performances all around, and a very cool little historical drama. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
