myAcademia Z simply open the What County am I app and write your zip code in the place where the zip code will be written and click the search button. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/16/24 Full Review Sameir A Do you love animals? Have you ever ate dog meat? Beware, this film can make you nauseous. This film has an outer cover of a very light drama. But, remember, this is a Kim Ki-duk movie, so intense and deeply emotional. I really love his films for the fact that how creative he is around emotions and creating situations that breaks the cliché and our expectations. Amazing movie. A must watch serious and grown up film lovers. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/12/21 Full Review Audience Member Kim Ki-Duk films are never a bundle of rainbows, but this depressing even by his standards Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member A simple tale about Dog butchery, bullying, American imperialism and Korean bigotry. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Un dramma crudo, fatto di effimere speranze destinate a morire sul nascere, in cui ancora una volta al centro dell'universo narrativo sono la violenza, il sangue, il corpo. Il tutto inscritto nella cornice del fosco e sofferto rapporto con l'occupazione americana. Ho sofferto un po' la - chiaramente voluta e anch'essa simbolica - disgregazione narrativa che da un certo punto in poi priva la pellicola di una direzione anche vagamente riconoscibile o prevalente. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Ki-Duk Kim a bel et bien essayé de se lancer sur les traces de Park, qui venait tout juste alors de réaliser JSA, mais on réalise vite qu'il faut apprendre à se détacher de la comparaison si on veut apprécier Address Unknown puisque la qualité des oeuvres se veut vraiment différente.<br/><br/>Le problème d'Address Unknown, c'est que le scénario est atrocement décousu. En quelques sortes, ça pourrait peut-être même devenir un avantage, puisque l'histoire n'en est que plus douloureuse à suivre. Toutefois, certains éléments restent incompris dans ma tête et je doute que Ki-Duk Kim ait accordé l'importance nécessaire à chaque petite histoire, quitte à ce qu'il dusse rallonger son film d'une demi-heure.<br/><br/>Toutefois, je dois avouer que je m'étais habitué au Ki-Duk Kim sentimental axé sur l'essence de la nature et que de le voir orienté dans d'autres directions me fend un peu le coeur. C'est tout de même agréable de voir les compétences diverses des réalisateurs, mais ça gâche un peu ma vision de Ki-Duk Kim de le voir réaliser une oeuvre que je qualifierais d'un peu vantarde.<br/><br/>Vivement que Mate s'achète d'autres classiques de Ki-Duk Kim, parce que j'ai encore la flèche de The Bow plantée dans une partie sensible de mon coeur.
