Audience Member this is one of the best chinese films i have ever seen its full of action and love very romantic and spiteful Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member FANTASTIC Korean swordplay/martial arts film. It has a reputation as being underated for some reason, but it smashed box office records and started a trend in Korea for this kind of film that was subsequently killed by Musa. Beautiful, moving, great music and brilliant photography. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member It's rather messy. At some point I lost the whole point of the movie. But the ending :'( Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Some occasional display of swordplay brillance can't quite save this middling wuxia drama from Korea. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Rated this high for the love story....pales in comparison to HK martial arts productions but enjoyable. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member <i>Bichunmoo</i> has its ups and downs, but director Kim Young-jun does more than enough to surpass mediocrity.<p>The story is pretty deep in terms of love, loyalty, and revenge. It is also quite lengthy at just under 2 hours, and despite the times where the film gets dramatic, it also gets momentary, so a lot does happen throughout the movie.</p><p>On the other side of the love story is the action and an enjoyable watch these scenes are. The swordplay is composed of some great choreography which lead to some fast-paced fights; however, the editing and camera angles are a little bit of a letdown, as they are a bit erratic. The fights are also a little brief and that leaves a feeling of wanting more.</p><p>Shin Hyeon-jun comes across as monotone, and although that does match his character, it makes the likes of Jeong Jin-yeong and the lovely Kim Hee-seon much more amusing to watch. There are also a number of other characters that may have excelled with a little more screen time.</p><p><i>Bichunmoo</i> isn't perfect, but for a dramatic martial arts film out of Korea, it is a worthwhile viewing.</p> Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
