reallyevilboy I still look at this movie, just the front cover, a year after I have seen it and I feel a little tear roll down my cheek.Oh My God I still can't stop crying from this movie.It sits in the back of your brain, a melancholy sadness that will never leave. Never ever, ever.If you're a man, this is the movie you should take you girlfriend to see. If your a woman who enjoys seeing men cry, take your boyfriend to this movie.It's a great movie but the tattoo of sadness can never be removed.Never ever, ever.

JvH48 I saw this film at the Imagine film festival 2013 in Amsterdam. A seemingly neglected boy is found in the barn. Cannot speak or behave properly, but is yet adopted by a young girl who tries to raise him as best as she can to become part of the family. Starting with a dog training book she succeeds very well in her efforts, and we see a special relationship growing between the two. Of course, there are the usual counter powers who rather see the boy moved to an orphanage. But the mills of government grind slowly. The longer the decision what to do with him is postponed, the better he becomes house trained and integrated in family life. Ultimately, discussions about his fate falter. Yet, he remains unable to make comprehensible sounds, let alone speaking sensibly. We see all this in a long flashback, lasting nearly all of the 2 hours running time.The film starts with a prologue where grandma Suni is called to her former birth place, to decide what to do with the remains of a cottage and a barn where she had spent a considerable part of her youth. This relatively short prologue is followed by aforementioned extended flashback, where we see a whole family moving to the country because of their ailing daughter Suni. During a stormy night she finds the "wolf" boy in the deserted barn. It is the first time that someone treats the boy with affection, and they become attached to each other. She is the only one who has some influence on the boy.He eventually becomes a more or less accepted member of the family. The few times he deviates from the civilized route, is when someone threatens the family. We observe him changing into a hairy and growling monster as per the standard "werewolf" routine as shown in other movies. This happens one time too much and people get suspicious, in the aftermath of which his only viable option is to flee. Of course, Suni chases after him and finds him. Alas, she has no choice other than to leave him behind. She promises that she will return, and asks him to wait for her.All of the above is acted splendidly. Even the kids that appear as brothers, sisters and playmates of Suni act very naturally. The story is well told, and two hours pass without much inclination to inspect our watches. There is also nice music "under" several scenes that were assumed to be "moving". There were no particularly scary scenes, not even the few nightly visits to the barn. This means that the film belongs to the Fantasy and Romance category, rather than Horror. There is no reason to keep young kids away in spite of the word werewolf in the title.(*** warning *** spoiler ahead ***) Pity that some inconsistencies were not properly taken care of. For instance: in the finale, the boy still looks not very much older, contrary to Suni who became a grandma in the meantime, and has lived a full live (as she says herself) while the "boy" has done nothing but patiently wait for her. The latter is not very believable, since we hear him speaking correct sentences now, something we did not see him doing ever before. You won't learn mastering the language while all alone and not seeing other people. I think we missed a minor clarification there.A 2rd contradiction is that the young Suni speaks in sentences that are too complex (with "do not xxx" and "stop doing xxx") for the boy to understand at that time, but obviously he gets their meaning anyway. The only way to explain this it that we probably missed most of the "dog training" they did together (understandable for reasons of timing), or that he apparently grasped more than we think from her directions. That he could not speak, apart from a few words, does not mean that he did not understand the language and its basic syntax rules, in combination with her tone of voice and body language. Isn't that the way we all learned our mother tongue??All in all, still a good feel-good movie with the usual mix of good and bad characters. Even local policemen have their good and bad sides, like in real life. The over-caring mother for ailing Suni was annoying some of the time. Over-the-top annoying was the ever interfering son of the "landlord", who from the beginning is portrayed as someone not doing anything useful ever. Finally, to wrap up my positive comments, I did not feel the above average running time of 122 min as too long, meaning that it holds your attention throughout. It is well acted and shot altogether.

kenny-kuni its not a new story but still worth to have a look. To be honest, besides the cast is not that attractive to me and the at the beginning, the story is quite boring due to the tempo is very slow and almost without any fresh air... but once the more you get involved into the story, the more interesting and touching you will find in this movie...I even cried out badly at the end...I don't know why so many magnificent or gloomy love are all about a man who loves the girl so much and even sacrifices himself for the girl, however, he gets either being dumped or died...on the other hand, no matter how strong or deep the girl fell in love with the boy, she can still move on to a new life easily without regrets...is that the different perceptions of love between gender?

Kash514 The title was very misleading, I was expecting an action/thriller or even fantasy/horror werewolf movie but instead ended up getting this Korean version of Twilight. This movie was not bad in its own respect ... if I wanted to watch a human interest or a drama though, then I would have picked up another movie. I generally tend of avoid trailers and reading reviews before watching a movie because I hate spoilers and actually I don't like reviews or trailers that give away too much of a movie. However, after watching this movie and being severely disappointed because there was only two short werewolf scenes, I might consider reading a review or two before investing 2+ hours in my next foreign film.
