#JESUISLA (#IAMHERE)
Watchable. A pleasant, relaxing picture. Shot in French and Korean - the Polish version subtitles French dialogue only. The 1st third is set in France, the 2nd at picture-perfect Incheon Airport - which is like a small town, the 3rd in the city of Seoul. For a larger part, it's a postcard from South Korea. The French part emphasises everyone's infidelity and even promotes it for some reason. The Asian country is presented as beautiful, touristically attractive, high tech, well-organized, where politeness may conceal hostility but where people also happen to act on the spur of the moment sometimes expressing great friendliness and often indifference and disregard to other's feelings while insisting on observing 눈치 (nunch'i). It's kept light in tone, humourous at times.But from the very first minute till the end it's also a praise of living in the moment in which case it's precisely not bothering with others that makes it possible. A feelgood movie which at face value lacks depth. But isn't enjoying the moment enough?
Reviewed from a distributor's screener so cinematic reception might differ.
