CommentsXp Best movie ever!
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
capo-365-829602 People compare this movie to recent comedies, made in the states which are far inferior. This is one of the best, if not "the best" comedies in this genre of Porky's, Animal House, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, American pie, etc... It's made in Korea during their height of their filmmaking. The scenes are powerful, laugh out loud funny, and fast. The acting is natural and the comedic rhythm is fluid. The gags are exaggerated at times, but completely satisfying. The change in mood towards the end can almost bring you to tears, which is impressive for a movie that can make you laugh harder than most. It manages to cover the entire range of human emotions disguised in a silly premise. This is superior filmmaking on all levels. It is a story told many times, told better. High art, disguised in a commercial medium. I love this movie. Tonight I watched it for the fourth time and it is just as entertaining and touching as the first time.
ebiros2 Korean movies found their marks with comedy, lavishness, and bit of romance or sexploitation. This is one of the earlier movies of this type that has good plot, and many funny moments.The movie is about a Korean cheer leading competition, with romance that goes along the way. Many good looking athletic women and men show their skills on screen. I'd say maybe 70% of the entertainment is from the eye candy factor. There aren't any vulgarness to the movie although there are many sexual innuendos. Korean movies have come a long ways, and the quality of actors have really gone up. The story isn't seamlessly smooth, but this problem goes away with Sex is Zero 2. The movie was pretty experimental when it came out, so that's OK.I'm all for these cleverly done K movies, and I hope they'd continue making good movies like this one.
cuckoodu The movie is so hilarious that I appreciate so much the scriptwriter's superb skill of making funny.And the value of this movie doesn't only exist in funny aspect,but also appropriately display the love life and sex need of Asian younger.Some people do not understand the abortion scene,feeling wield and unacceptable.I have to say different cultural backgrounds create the discrepancies between opinions with regard to what if an unmarried girl gets conceiving when the boy claims clearly he doesn't want to take a responsibility of taking care the mother and unborn baby.As we can see,the way that girl dealt with her unborn baby represents most Asian girls'attitude,without choices,they have to do so. The mother 'furious reaction is,although inhuman, because her daughter's unconsciousness which really hurt the heart of a mother.I do not mind I'm Chang-Jeong's exaggerated act.He portrays perfectly.
Brian Thibodeau SEX IS ZERO (2002): Raunchy comedy/drama starring pop idol Lim Chang-jung (see JAKARTA) as a hapless college schlub who falls for Miss Popularity, who conveniently happens to be dating the biggest prick on campus and is therefore blind to Lim's hopeless overtures until she gets knocked up and beaten silly by her embarrassed mother. Often feels like an idealized male-centric filmization of the director's unrequited college romance, except that here the dream girl is made to suffer unspeakable anguish before she wises up to the man who really cares about her (a made-for-the-movies conceit if ever there was one). The dramatic scenes are uncommonly powerful, but they seem almost too heavy in places for a comedy that tries so hard to be base. You may never look at bread or frying pans the same way, though. UNBELIEVABLE FACT: if you watch the making of doc on the Korean DVD, you'll learn that the scene where a secondary female character throws up on her date WAS NOT FAKED. Man, talk about suffering for your craft: the girl downs two full 1.5 Litre bottles of water, mixed with one cup instant noodle soup and voila! Real barf! Which the actor then has to enjoy while he kisser her in the same take. Probably the most f'd-up thing I've ever seen in all my years of movie watching.
