“I had the chance to sit down to watch the 2017 South Korean thriller u0026quot;Marionetteu0026quot; here in 2021. Sure, I hadnu0026#39;t even heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it. But it being a South Korean movie, and one that I hadnu0026#39;t already seen, was more than sufficient to make me have an interest in sitting down to watch it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd I must say that I really found writer and director Han-Wook Leeu0026#39;s 2017 movie to be a rather entertaining and enjoyable movie. It definitely had a very riveting and compelling story that grabbed me and took me along for a very well-told but also sort of disturbing storytelling.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Marionetteu0026quot; is the type of movie that will not have a widely broad appeal I think, given the contents of the storyline and the topic that it deals with. But if you sit down to watch it, it is actually a rather good movie. And it revolves around some disturbing issues about abusive mentality and modern technology. Something that is very relatable to todayu0026#39;s world and society, unfortunately.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe acting in the movie is good, and the actors and actresses do put on some very compelling and believable performances, which definitely helps to bring the movie to life in a very realistic manner. And the movie had some very detailed characters that you easily associate and relate to, and this definitely made the movie all the more enjoyable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI thoroughly enjoyed Han-Wook Leeu0026#39;s u0026quot;Marionetteu0026quot; and it was quite a surprise of a movie as it turned out to be this interesting. My rating of this 2017 thriller lands on a well-deserved seven out of ten stars. It is definitely well-worth the time to sit down and watch.”
