Audience Member Heartwarming movie. It's so good. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Very heartwarming movie. The actors nailed their roles. It was established that she did not want to love and depend on a man, so it's one star less for insufficient development to the romance between the husband and wife. I wanted to see her really fall in love with the husband. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Routine, common, even this movie recall I mgiht see some of the story, however, fun and touching. Typical comic drama with smile. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member If you have some spare time, this is a nice movie to watch. The young boy is too adorable and overall a heartwarming storyline. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Wonderful Nightmare is an excellent blend of fantasy and comedy, very similar to Big (1988) or Miss Granny (2014). Its about a cold hearted lawyer named Yeon-Woo, who gets killed in a car accident. While in an afterlife relay station, we find out a paperwork glitch caused her to die early and a housewife to come back to life for a month. In order to get back her life and body, Yeon-Woo must live out a demure hard working houswife's life for an entire month. The movie starts slow, and develops the family alongside Yeon-Woo as she tries to fit in without her fancy clothes or food. The movie is less of a comedy and more of a drama, and it really has some tender moments that really make you root for the characters. Overall its a very well written comedy drama that focuses on character development over story. It has a bittersweet ending, but the acting and plot twists definitely make this a solid film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member It could be called "Wonderful Movie" because that's what it is. I always say, a good movie can make you laugh or cry but a really good movie can make you do both and this one does. Well written and well acted, I would have done something different with the ending but it was good enough for me. All in all, I would highly recommend it!
