S ~ Saigo no Keikan [2014 - Japan [2014]
Quickie Review: 8/10

This was amazing! It had action and the feels!! And of course the wonderful Ayano Go is not someone I wouldn't watch! <3 I am SO looking forward to the film that comes out this year!!


Protect the Boss [South Korea - 2011]
Quickie Review: 6/10

This ugh.... the MC girl is fecking annoying! The TVXQ guy has NEVER been able to act! And while I enjoyed the first 12 or so episodes of this, I just got so bored and like it looked like they weren't gunna be together but come on! It's a fecking K-Drama! So I skipped 5 episodes and watched the last 5 minutes of the final episode and omg they got married! No surprise there -_- ugh. The main guy was great and very funny. And I liked the dad but that's about it.


MOZU Season 1 [Japan - 2014]
Quickie Review: 9/10

This dorama blew my mind!!!!! HOMG it was amazing! Starts off as a terrotist attack (that's not a spoiler) and then it just becomes a mind fuck of awesomeness! Especially where Shingai is concerned [holy shit Ikematsu Sousuke is THE best actor of 2014 for definite!]. This dorama was action packed, a mind-thinker (or messer-upper xD), mysterious and suspenseful, and very satisfactory xD I think the reason why I was so blown away with it is because I tend to go into doramas without knowing their synopsis and so I was expecting a standard cop dorama - holy hell I was wrong! The only reason it's not got a 10/10 score? I do NOT like the female MC (her right there on the poster -_-) and I wasn't emotional attatched to a lot of the characters but I don't think we're meant to maybe? NOW, I just have to talk about episode 6 so SPOILERS til end now!
( Major Spoilers ) )



MOZU Season 2 [Japan - 2014]
Quickie Review: 6/10

This was such a disappointment ='[ broke my heart so much!! A. there were only 5 episodes!! B. The plot is very all over the place. C. Shingai's story line get's way too complicated (in a way) but once again, his was the best story line! and D. we focused back on Nishijima's (dunno his character's name) story line and he just spend the entire season mopping about his wife and the whole reveal about her is disappointing. E. We focus on the woman's story line as well which was obvious and not interesting either =[ nevertheless, bring on this film! Especially if Ikematsu is in it xD

Tumbling [Japan - 2010]
Quickie Review: 10/10

I know what you're thinking; Alex?! Haven't you already watched this?! Aye when it first aired and I decided to rewatch it =] I laughed, cried and enjoyed it even more this time around! OMG it's so heartwarming and touching and the friendships are beautiful <3 and I still love Tomo's constant gay storylines xD and omg just amazing <3 Let's watch it a third time?! xD

---

And there we go for my second installment! Have you watched any of these? What did you think? Have I persuaded you to watch any of them? I have about 2 more things I need to watch until I can do another installment! Look foward to it!!

I've decided I'm going to review doramas and films in groups of 5 or 3 (depending on how much I have to say) which exceptions for doramas I really end up loving; in that case they'll get their own post won't they! This first part will consist of 5 films! (featured in this post's header) Naturally there are possible spoilers!
