The IFC is doing an Asian film festival right now and I plan on seeing maybe 6 of the films over the next week or two. The first I saw was Park Chen-Wook’s I’m A Cyborg But That’s OK. I didn’t really know what to expect from a romantic comedy from the guy who directed three of the best revenge films I have even seen. The answer of course was attempted suicide, a cyborg with guns for fingers, a world ending bomb and lots of people brutally murdered by aforementioned gun fingers. The story basically is about a girl who thinks she is a robot who has a grandmother who thinks she is a mouse and is in love with a boy who thinks he is inviable. The movie makes about as much sense as that plot description, but it is very pretty and very enjoyable. It is playing again this week, so check it out if you can. I plan on seeing movies on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday so expect more write ups and weird trailers soon.
