On Blu-ray with 120Hz looks phenomenal, no motion sickness too.

I liked it. It got a little slow in the middle. My wife thought the monster looked godzilla-fake, but I thought the special effects were tremendous especially from a Korean film.

I also liked how it does not have the traditional happy hollywood ending.

Just rented and watched this movie with my dad. I'm sorry, but I didn't enjoy it at all. Long and drawn out and just boring imo.

I thought it was pretty bad also. A lot of overly done scenes.

this movie does have a korean mind set, lots of themes of retrobution and revenge running through it, i thought it excellent in so many ways. i give it a 9.4 outta 10 myself.

I'm a big movie fan, and I tend to like monster movies more than most people. I would rather punch myself in the genitals than watch this movie again, or any sequal spawned from it. It was that bad.
