Daisy (2006)

6.5/10

beautifully shot, sorrowful Korean/chinese collaboration


Plot: "Daisy" is a story about the inevitable showdown between a detective and a killer who fall in love with the same woman.



Another well crafted sorrowful film starring Jung Woo-sung (from A Moment to Remember). I didn't feel much of an attachment to Gianna Jun's character Hye-young. She just seemed in pain most of the film, which wasn't a lovely quality in comparison to her character in My Sassy Girl. The connection between the three main characters was a bit out there.

Having met Jung Woo-Sung a while back. He has this very sincere and kind look about him both in real life and in films.

What I loved about the film was the beautiful scenery and mix of languages used. A large portion of the film was shot in Netherlands and the location chosen are breath taking. From the daisy filled fields to the European style buildings,

Recommended to those who enjoy action, romance, and korean drama mixed together. Not always my cup of tea as Korean romance films are a bit farfetched and aimed at jerking a tear out of you. I didn't mind this film so much for the location and cinematography but the drama wasn't too captivating.
