THE LAKE HOUSE reviews.......2007-11-01

Both movies sound great, I liked them both, but i was wondering if there is a book that I could read to see if there is more of a different ending from the movies. Please help!!

Love Across Time.......2006-08-14

The original title of this film is 'Siwole' which means 'love across time'. This gives an idea of what the story is going to be. It's about two people who live in the same lake house two years apart. The lake house is called 'Il Mare', which is Italian for 'the sea'. This is where the English title of the film comes from. Due to the mailbox at the lake house, the two people can communicate with each other, even though they are two years apart. It sounds like a rather far-fetched plotline, but the director and both of the lead actors make you believe that this is possible, and thankfully they don't really even address how this could be happening.

This was the film that first made people take notice of the Korean actress Jun Ji Hyun. She would later become an Asian superstar with her next film 'My Sassy Girl'. But here, she shows why she was able to become so popular. Her performance is second to none. And Lee Jung Jae does a pretty decent job keeping up with her in the acting department.

The director takes his time in telling the story. Because of this, the story doesn't feel rushed, nor does it feel too slow. There is a certain youthful energy and playfulness in the tone of the film and it really makes you feel good not only for the characters but also for yourself.

The cinematography is captivating. Having been filmed in Ganghwa, you get to experience some beautiful Korean countryside. It makes you long to be able to go to Korea and experience it first hand.

This film was recently remade as 'The Lake House', starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. While they tried to stay pretty faithful to the original storyline and made an admiral attempt at remaking this film, it misses some of the magic and wonderment of the original. In short, this is a film not to be missed, especially if you are a lover of a good romance story.

family power.......2007-07-31

good to see the inside knowledge of the top families but only 2 are more powerful than the rest the macmahons dubbed the family that has had the most impact and the hart the family with the most influence, due the "kennedys of the wrestling world" due to the number of tragedies in recent years, a must for all wrestling fans to see the best of the top families in the business and the talent and champions that they have produced over the years. great matches as extras too.
