“I wasnu0026#39;t sure what to expect from this 2018 South Korean movie titled u0026quot;Beautiful Vampireu0026quot; from director Eunkyung Jung. But it being a South Korean movie was actually sufficient enough to make me want to watch it; and it happened to be a vampire movie too, so that was a plus.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo I sat down and watched the movie. And while the movie was watchable, it wasnu0026#39;t a particularly outstanding movie in the South Korean cinema. The storyline in the movie was just too linear and mundane. Essentially, it was just another romantic vampire movie; think in the lines of an Asian variation of u0026quot;Twilightu0026quot;, except the roles are reversed.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie was actually quite nicely acted by the cast, and I was definitely impressed with the performance of Jung Yeon-joo (playing Ran). She really carried the movie with her performance; well, as was required because she was the one spending most time on the screen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor a vampire movie, then u0026quot;Beautiful Vampireu0026quot; wasnu0026#39;t really a great movie. This is a movie that would appeal to late teens or young adults, I suppose – people that are just experiencing first love and such.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI must admit that the movie was a bit on the boring side for me. But I managed to sit through it to the end. However, I was only mildly entertained, because there wasnu0026#39;t actually a whole lot happening throughout the course of the story.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy rating of u0026quot;Beautiful Vampireu0026quot; is a mediocre five out of ten stars.”
