Recently saw “Cello” on the Sundance channel on Halloween night (2009). It seemed the appropriate thing to do. I liked this movie a lot since it was more a psychological-horror movie than just an exercise in gratuitous violence (though the blood flows more and more as the movie progresses) without a lot of ghosts floating around (although there are a few). I do not know who Nix is, who reviewed this movie back in 2005 (see above). He/she didn’t like the movie so much and he/she is, of course, entitled to his/her opinion, but he/she seems to have missed or misunderstood parts of the movie, which may have contributed to the poor review. First, Mi-ju’s “strange acting” daughter who doesn’t play the cello very well is autistic. Also, Mi-ju is either an instructor or an assistant to a professor of music at some unnamed music conservatory. She doesn’t just drive around aimlessly; she is obviously gainfully employed as a music teacher. A music professor is trying to get Mi-ju a promotion to a professorship. Of course, I am not going to give away the ending, but I liked the “constrained” feeling of this movie the reviewer above did not like. This movie probes the psychological horror developed by Mi-ju’s guilt-stricken mind. The prognosis for Mi-ju’s mental health is poor indeed, perhaps the worst horror in this movie.

Wow…I love it when angry, immature people like you have to make someone feel small and ridiculous because they posted something that YOU don’t like. I think the point to the 25% Asian, brainiac, is that we are talking about Asian movies.

And maybe you’re so bitter because you can’t get any pussy, sideways or otherwise. I’m sure you have “something” tiny that you are making up for with your big mouth.

My wife and i went to Rasputins records today where they sell new and used cd’s and dvd’s and lp’s! My wife picked this movie ”Cello” not knowing it was in Korean language and with english subtitles. Whats funny is my wife is 25% Korean but dosen’t speak the language. This was a fluke of nature that she thought it looked like a good movie. We just finnished watching it and we both agree this is one of the best ”thriller” tpye movie we have seen in a long time. We even both agree that we like it much more than the Grudge part 1 and 2 put together. I looked up on the internet to see if there is a part 2 being made and diden’t see anything. We hope they will make a part 2 because the ending leaves you wanting more and a part 2. We recommend this movie to people who like these kind of movies!!!
