gothiclemonade There's not really any way to describe this movie accurately without using the word bizarre, is there? 'I'm a Cyborg' is one of the most entertaining films I've seen in a long time, with a perfectly weird combination of comedy, romance, sci-fi, and something I like to call asylum drama, which places it in an entirely new genre of its own. Despite every character in this movie being very strange and, in most cases, insane, you really feel emotionally attached and connected to them; their emotions become partially yours, and you actually care about what's happening. I think this is what makes all the weirdness so much more effective, because it impacts you more heavily while seeming like you're a part of it. The dialogue between the protagonist and her love interest is rather lovely, and their private scenes together really effect us as an audience. The visuals in 'I'm a Cyborg' provide something extremely interesting and fun to watch, and have a unique and original feel to them which I find hard to find in any English or American films - at least in the mainstream, anyway. Being set in a mental hospital often means that you'll see some crazy stuff in a film, and that's certainly the case here: not only do you experience the 'madness' of all the patients, you see most of the movie from Young-oon's perspective, meaning you spend the whole film with a 'cyborg'. While this film definitely isn't for everyone, I'd try watching it no matter who you are. It's splendidly written and performed, and I think it could surprise people.

mehmet oney According to plot, it may seem like we got a wonderful movie. But the whole production looks cheap and cheesy, eventually in first 20 minutes you get bored. Camera angles, light setup at the scenes, acting, editing etc. pulls the film way below what it meant to be.At an environment like a mental hospital, which includes many original characters that supposed to be the main characters of film, storytelling should have taken us into that feeling which we may experience the patients own reality. (consider that their reality is amazingly rich and different comparing to us)If this had been an animation made by Miyazaki or a creative like him,(I mean people who come up with stories which can be considered as mostly fantasy or stories that contains powerful fiction and imagination) I believe outcome would be much much better. Cause you have much more freedom at an animation specially for a movie like this.This time, as a fan of your cinema, shame on you Korea..

Kevin Chun I am a huge fan of Park Chan-Wook. After watching his Vengeance trilogy, I checked out some of his other movies such as Joint Security Area and Thirst, both of which are excellent movies. When I found out that he had directed a "romantic comedy" movie, I wanted to check it out immediately. And as much as I wanted to like this film, I hated it. I couldn't understand how someone of that talent can direct something so terrible...A year later, I gave this film another try. Surprisingly, I loved it. Not liked it or enjoyed it. It wasn't just watchable. I LOVED It. I LOVED IT.I think the biggest thing that changed my mindset and attitude towards this film was that I finally understood what Park Chan-Wook was trying to do. His purpose in this movie isn't to wow you with the plot. Sure, the premise is interesting in itself. It's about a mentally troubled girl who believes she is a cyborg and her relationship with another patient at a mental hospital. But it's not the plot itself that drives the movie. It's the way Park represents human nature and how everyone is deep down the same, whether they are mentally sane or not. In the end, we all just want to be loved. And he displays that perfectly throughout the film.Don't expect a film like Oldboy. This is not meant to be a dark film and is not filled with many twists, if not at all. It's a very slow paced movie that will be boring if you don't get it!!!! Try to watch it in the right lenses and you will love it. Guaranteed.

dragokin I remember randomly choosing this movie in a fantasy-horror festival shortly after it's release. After watching i haven't been able to shake of the feeling that it broke the mold of the festival.Although described as romantic comedy I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK is more than that. Yes, there is romance and comedy and yes, there's fantasy and horror elements. I thought i've sensed even some influence from Kusturica, as well, but i might have been wrong. What makes exceptional is that melds the action of SF-action-movies, some gore and art-house.What stayed in my mind has been the depiction of main protagonist's descending into madness. It's been the finest of it's kind in contemporary cinema.
