[KMovie] Mr. Wacky

Korean Movie
90 minutes

Synopsis:

Woo Ju Ho likes to spend his days – and his money – on good drinks, fun clubs and loose women. Hoping to build his character, Ju Ho’s grandfather threatens to disown him unless he agrees to teach high school for two years. At first Ju Ho approaches teaching much like he did his previous playboy life – lackadaisically. Fellow teacher Yun So Ju finally gets fed up and decides to take it upon herself to set Ju Ho straight. But can a playboy teacher be reformed?

Review:

Hmmm. I'm not quite sure how I feel about this movie. It didn't instantly love it, but it's not too bad. I think, overall, it's one those movies that you just watch. You may not add it to your faves list. You may not hate it. You may never re-watch it again. You may end up forgetting all about it in a few weeks, maybe even days. The concept was interesting, hence why I decided to watch it in the first place. I liked the idea of a playboy being transformed and abandoning his wicked ways. However, I think the problem stems from the fact that this movie is labeled a comedy, but I simply didn't find it very funny. Also, the romance developed far too abruptly for my tastes. One second they hated one another, then BAM they're kissing as the credits roll!

How about giving it a try yourself? And please tell me what you think when you do.
