Pretty gay looking from the ads. Kinda gay sounding name. I wasn't going to see it. Then I read a good review. Someone compared it to The Princess Bride. Hmmm. High compliment indeed. Must investigate.
And it really was pretty alright. Not cult funny like princess bride. Not a lot of lines that I can see being quoted over and over again like princess bride. Some recycled ideas, like the dead people in Beetlejuice.
Anyway, just a good movie and no Orlando Bloom. |

| Oh yeah forgot to mention. There's a small role by Ricky Gervais. He kind of plays his Office character. Lots of funny little trade mark Gervais facial expressions. I laughed my ass off. The Koreans in the audience had no clue. |

I thought it was pretty good...a little bizarre but some good imagination in the story.

In Korean, "whoopsy" is translated as "byeontae" which cracked me up even more. |

Fark. So instead of "gay" they translated it merely as "pervert"? In some ways that's kind of insulting. Homosexuals are not perverts. |

There are lots of cross-dressing heterosexuals, so the term "byeontae" (which translates more as "fetishist") would suit, except for that wink at Victoria's suitor at the end of the movie. |
