1. [+1,090, -151] It was a lot better than I thought ㅋ
2. [+558, -86] It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that the movie showed potential in Korea’s SF movie market to play up to par to that of Hollywood’s SF. I personally love the SF genre and enjoyed ‘Stranger Things’ as well as the Marble and DC series. Recently, I’ve been enjoying ‘Sweet Home’ and ‘The Uncanny Encounter’ on Netflix. I was so surprised at how well produced they all were, and they all exceeded my expectations. More than anything, I was surprised at how far Korean SF has come along. I’m pretty honest when it comes to something being born and will turn it off immediately but these were all enjoyable.
3. [+385, -71] I would’ve cried if I had to pay to watch this in theaters
4. [+253, -17] It was worth a watch but still a bit awkward when it came to the acting and directing. I think it was an admirable attempt at the genre though. We can get some great new works to come out of this.
5. [+254, -64] It was honestly pretty boring. I turned it off midway. But I see some people think it was fun so I guess it’s down to personal preference.
6. [+80, -0] The foreigners were so bad at acting… I couldn’t focus ㅠㅠ
7. [+75, -7] It’s the first Korean movie to attempt the space genre and I think they did pretty well considering that
8. [+58, -7] I watched it with my mom yesterday, it was fun! I had a lot of expectations since it was hailed as the first Korean space SF movie. The CG was done perfectly, the quality was outstanding! The acting was fun and good, and the child actor was cute as well ㅎㅎ I hope more Korean movies attempt this genre!
9. [+49, -2] I would’ve preferred that they gave the characters more depth instead of focusing on melodramatic scenes. Korean movies always do this! They think they can sum up an antagonist’s change with a few dialogues or introduce the main characters’ storylines with a few brief scenes. Directors, please realize that character development is more important than melodramatic scenes!
10. [+47, -3] I didn’t have high expectations going in but it held my attention the entire way
