Day 263 - My Mother, the Mermaid (Korean)

My Mother the Mermaid movie poster.jpg
"Na-young (Jeon Do-yeon) is an office worker who lives with her seemingly emotionally non-existent father Jin-kook (Kim Bong-geun), and loud cynical mother Yeon-soon (Go Doo-shim). As time passes she is becoming more and more like her mother Yeon-soon.
One day her father suddenly disappears and she skips her international airplane flight to find him. By entering her father's hometown she is somehow transported back in time to when her parents' relationship was just beginning"

Quite an interesting film that had a great plot but really failed to make a great movie. The lighting was excellent it matched the theme of the film. The costume and make up were all nice choices for this film. It was a great choice to make it a poor family because it seems more realistic this way and the costume design really helped make this film better. There really was to fakeness to beauty, what you see is what you get. That is one aspect of this film to be admired. There are many plot holes that make you want to throw this movie away and never watch it again. It happens to be an okay film that could have used a slightly better plot.

1.5/5
