“Iu0026#39;ve read some bad reviews, but donu0026#39;t let that deter you. Take joy in Uhm Tae-Goou0026#39;s performance, as well as the rest of the cast. Also beautiful is the drumming and singing…reminiscent of Native American pow-wows (along with some of the humor in the chants).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe PR made this movie seem almost like a typical rom-com, I think it is not. It is poignant and bittersweet. I very much liked it and will probably see it again in the future; but I do realize it is not for everybody.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA brain damaged 29 year old who desperately wants to do what he loves one last time and knowing he is on the fast track to dementia is human emotion on a deeper level. Or, like our main character when he sees the strays, maybe I just empathize too much.”
