"봉준호 (Bong Joon-ho). 128 minutes. Korean. 01/14/2013 & 01/15/2013. DVD. 마더 (Madeo). This film took my by surprise. Being a momma's boy myself, I really liked the titular Mother in this film. I am a fair bit smarter than Do-joon, however! It starts out simple with a framed murder, and escalates with lead after lead until the fantastic finale. There were a couple times that I actually say "Holy shit!" out loud! Top notch acting all around, which is usual for critically acclaimed Korean d"

New-to-Me Films of 2012 (366 movies items)

"A tense crime-thriller where the truth of its events are enigmatic, and the characters' motives are even more questionable. The players in this murder mystery are driven by the theme of personal memory, which often serves as both a blessing and a curse to the conflict. Excellent performances by all involved; tense atmosphere, especially in the final third. Though many ties are still left unresolved by the film's end, the viewing experience in itself is absolutely compelling. "
