Wanted to like it, swear I did. Great concept (Anne Hathaway? Goofy monster in Seoul? Cool, I'll check it out). I mean, IMDb called it SF and Comedy.
But, ah...no. It was as if the makers could never decide what this film was? Was it a parable about how drinking can ruin your life?
Nope. Okay, was it something about the monsters that live inside us?
No so much. Good, dependable actors, doing their best in service to a misbegotten idea. Who thought "Hey, we can make a comedy about a relationship that turns abusive...and we get to punch Ann Hathaway a couple of times!"
The tone shifts were jarring and poorly thought out...and just made it a waste of not only the viewer's time, but the actors', as well. Skip it.
