Day 24 - Twilight Gangsters (South Korea)



"For eight years three grandmothers saved their money for a VIP tour packages to Hawaii. The grandmothers have all had difficult experiences and used their dream vacation as a beacon of hope in their lives. Jung-Ja (Na Moon-Hee) was once imprisoned and suffered the ordeal of giving up her son for adoption. Young-Hee (Kim Soo-Mi) has finally broken free from her cheating husband & heartbreak. Shin-Ja (Kim Hye-Ok) is a widow with a son that steals her money. Yet the three grandmothers have finally saved enough money for the dream vacation."- AW

A nice film that shows off a different set of characters than normal, the elders of society. It is very nice but it feels like it was missing something. Now don't get me wrong these three women are very good actresses and are quite entertaining. I was sort of helping for an American ending but I know better so don't expect a true happy ending despite the fact that the film feels is a comedy that does show serious moments as well.

2.5/3
