Review of West 32nd (2007) by Dh H — 28 Jul 2009
This movie was actually pretty crappy but it has john cho and grace park together. that's basically like the korean american equivalent of the pacino de niro scene in heat or the hackman hoffman scene in runaway jury. I dunno, just weird to see probably the two most famous korean americans/canadians working together. the best part of this movie for me was watching grace park speak korean. seriously is enough to make the film for me. I loved the grace park/john cho/grace park's mother scene. that felt so true to me.
The worst part of the film is the supposed hottest woman in the movie is not hot at all. why are people fighting over her? no idea.
Dunno if you know, but this movie was produced by a korean film company. so it's a movie about koreans and korean americans in ny by koreans. I dunno I just thought that was an interesting mix.
Anyways the plot of this movie is convoluted but not korean movie convoluted. a lot of it takes place in nyc in k-town and it's like you watch it and say, hey! i've eaten there before! I dunno, that's the best praise I can conjure up for it.
But yes please please please hollywood (or cj entertainment) cast john cho and grace park together again. and more korean from grace park please.
