Watch Daisy For Free

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I love everithing in this movie, the music, beautiful places, acting, flowers..

Like the summery suggests, this movie works like a slow poison. The pacing of the movie is really slow but that didn't stop me from liking it. After the end of the movie i sat down on my chair thinking about the movie for an hour. And after a week i decided to write the review of this movie. Well, i won't call it a review, these are my general thoughts regarding the movie. So, i warn you there will be minor spoilers. Daisy is a tragic love triangle between a cop, a painter and an assassin. Hye-young(ji-hyun jun) is a 25 years old painter living in Amsterdam, who looks after her grandfather's antique shop. One day she meets Jeong-woo(Lee sung-jae), an Interpol cop whose job is to put an end to the Asian mafia in Amsterdam, both fall in love with each other, but one day a gun fire happens in the middle of the street. Hye-young and jeong-woo both got hurt. In this tragic accident Hye-young looses her voice and Jeong-woo got shot in the arm and sent back to Korea. Enter park yi(Woo-sung Jung), an assassin by profession. He tries to steal the heart of Hye-young and also helps her to forget the sad past. After his relentless effort Hye-young accepts his love. Everything was working well for Park Yi but suddenly Hye-young finds Jeong woo standing at her doorsteps. Thus, we have our movie.The plot of the movie is really good and it had the potential to turn into a great romantic movie, the only thing matters is the Execution and that is the greatest problem i have with this movie. The screenplay of the movie is really slow. The first 50 minutes were really enjoyable. But after that this movie really drags on. There was no chemistry between JI-Hyun jun and Woo-sung jung. We don't feel the romance between those two. We see Hye-young as a mute girl fighting with her own feelings and park yi trying really hard to appease her but we don't get to see how he does that and director introduces the time gap of one year. And after one year the situation is slightly changed, Hye-young and park yi are now couples but we don't see how that happened. And it is replaced by some gangster and mafia plot. And then the whole thing is turned into a convoluted mess. But the last 15 minutes of the movie really worked for me and the ending was something i didn't expect at all. The ending of the movie was really tragic and completely turns the table.Performance wise, all three lead actors did a fine job. Woo-sung jung's role as an assassin is perfect, Sung-jae lee also did a good job but the performance of ji hyun- jun wasn't up to the mark. No offense, i liked her acting in My sassy girl and wind struck and even in this movie she did a fine job at first but after she loses her voice i lost interest in her character, but again i feel she did an OK job but the actress of her caliber could've done better. The movie is set in Amsterdam which is really weird because i haven't seen any Asian movie filmed outside the continent. Maybe they thought filming the movie in Amsterdam will give the movie a romantic feel to it and i guess it worked, at least for the most part.Daisy is a good romantic movie but it's no way comparable to other Korean romantic classics such as A moment to remember, my sassy girl and the classic. But the great plot, solid performance and a good climax made it a must watch for all Asian movie lovers and also for anyone who want to watch a good tragic romantic story. Sorry for my bad English.I Am a south Asian and English is not my forte but i tried really hard keep this review understandable to the general English speaking people.

Again, I'm late 6 years to watch a good Asian movie. This makes me think why cinemas in my country only play Hollywood summer blockbusters when there are many better non Hollywood movies out there. Anyway... This movie really reminds me of HK Chow Yun Fat's The Killer (1987). There is a romantic killer and disable girl as his love interest. By then, the girl was blind after the shoot out and in Daisy, the girl can not speak after the gun fight. Both killers are decent man and have a good self consciousness (I doubt there is really a gun for hire out there like our lead actor). But that's all of the resemblance. The tone of Daisy is drama, so action is not very intense. Even at the end, when the final show down between the killer and the villains, the intensity is not very high. But one thing differ this movie from its predecessor, it's Jun Ji Hyun. She's really a good actress, capable of drawing our sympathy, feel her love and pain even though she does not speak nearly for half end of the movie. When she discovered the truth about the man whom she really loved, deep down in our heart we really wish happiness for her, even though some of us maybe know what's coming. Definitely 8/10

Despite the music I'm sorry to say that the atrocity of plot and use of clichés in movies just don't work for me. The plot of Daisy is forgivable as long as you take it to be the tragic love story of a lonely young woman instead of anything of the thriller genre. The landscape's beautiful but with the making a display out of Monet and Van Gogh and sunflowers, it completes and entrenches the clichés of popular understandings of impressionist work - warm, fuzzy, comfortable calender backdrop type of pictures. Korean movies (comedies excluded) has never disappointed me in churning out clichés - dark, silent, emotional males; fair, pure-looking and totally victimised, equally silent and emotional females. In this one Jun Ji Hyun completely made it to be the Ultimate Silent and Emotional female by losing both her voice and lover. To be fair I do think she acted well though, and really made a pretty, stirring picture with the nice selection of music.
