Got flooded away

A nice and touching movie. A story of three couples with the climactic disaster scene building up. Haeundae,a popular vacation spot on the East Sea coast of the Korean peninsular, draws one million visitors to its beaches every year. Man-sik, a native of Haeundae lost his co-worker in a tsunami four years ago, but now he leads a simple life running a small sushi shop. He prepares to propose to his longtime girlfriend, Yeon-hee. Meanwhile, a tsunami researcher Kim Hwi discovers the East Sea is showing signs of activity similar to the significant 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Despite his warnings, the Disaster Prevention Agency affirms that Korea is in no harm. Watching these people go about their lives is akin to the lull before the storm. Then,on a day when the beach is packed with people,a mega-tsunami heads straight for Haeundae at 250kph and they have only 10 minutes for evacuation. The ending might make your eyes watered with tears, unless you are stone-hearted.


Talking guinea pigs?? Wow. What's more interesting,these so called G-force are secret agents of the US government. Yaaaaa, and they've got the gadgets far better than Spy Kids and yes, they can move much stealthier than James Bond. XD. And that farting rodent Hurley, geeez, got me laughing non-stop for his moves. Black Eyed Peas's "I got a feeling" kept playing in the movie. The rhythm makes me wanna dance.



Is this a movie month for me? Counting back, i've been watching 8 movies in 4 consecutive weeks. That'll break my record and it'll "improve". Cause i have movie-addicted brathas.



i'm emotionless. stone? maybe. mostly
