scenes way too long---Boring Period
28 June 2012
Tried to watch this a couple times and only got as far as an hour into it...It is so boring the scenes need to be pared down.

The daily street life of Korea is great but enough is enough--for instance at the poetry reading one or two at the most poems would have made an impression not half a dozen each more clichéd and badly written than the one before it...about the fourth one you think My God! how long is this going to go on?

There are some great moments captured--especially with the elderly shop owner who has had a stroke. But there are so many boring scenes.

I got the point of male dominated society and feminist message early on...prefer these things be more subtle than a jack hammer. Social message movies like this are not my favorite.

BORING period.
