"3-Iron:" from the director of "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...Spring"

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

comes this tale of a young man who breaks into peoples' homes as they are away on vacation. He lives there for a few days, takes perfect care of the premises, and leaves to find another temporary residence.
One day, he is discovered by a woman who surprises him.
This is an interesting conceit but Ki-duk Kim doesn't seem to know whether he's telling a tale with verisimilitude or fantasy. Fairly quickly, it descends into farce and then into just silliness.
I tried another Kim film, "Coast Guard" and it has the same unbelievable developments.
Actually, so does "Spring, etc."
This film has garnered some good reviews so I was surprised at how poor it is.
Avoid.

Yup. It started out with a very clever existential idea. Very seductive. - tinear 07:02:11 03/18/07 (1)

I liked "Spring..." but it didn't leave me wanting - sjb 09:18:02 03/18/07 (0)
