VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Paul Magne Haakonsen Of course it is stupid to think that every single South Korean movie is going to be a masterpiece. There are hits and there are misses, and "Take Care of My Cat" (aka "Goyangileul butaghae") from 2001 was definitely a miss.The movie was unfathomably slow and rather pointless. It is just about two hours of absolutely nothing happening. The movie trots ahead at a very slow pace and doesn't pick up much pace before about an hour and twenty-five minutes into the movie, and even then it wasn't interesting.What little bit of any interest there was to this movie, then it had to be the acting by the actresses that were in the movie."Take Care of My Cat" is a movie about friendship and coming of age. So if you enjoy such movies, then you might find something interesting about this particular movie directed by Jae-eun Jeong.I wasn't entertained by Jae-eun Jeong's movie, and was in fact rather disappointed after the praise critics gave this movie.A mere three out of ten stars is what I could muster up for this movie.

paul2001sw-1 'Take Care of My Cat' is a thoughtful, sensitive and perceptive look at the lives of a group of young Koreans living in Inchon (Seoul's port city) as they undergo the difficult transition from students to workers. The characters of the different girls, and the changing interactions between them, are depicted with considerable skill and subtlety, as the film observes how the proliferation of mobile phones in society has not necessarily eliminated loneliness, and explores the (neo-Loachian) idea of the difficulty in maintaining relationships that straddle class boundaries. For a European, the film also provides an interesting portrait of contemporary Korea; awash with modern technology, but nonetheless still suffering from a relatively impoverished urban environment. The details are convincing and fascinating; the themes universal and profound, yet the film makes its points lightly and with grace. The result is genuinely moving experience. Definitely recommended.

seronie This is a nice, introspective movie that looks about growing up and trying to stay friends after school. Though set in Korea it is still applicable to the West.Though this film feels every inch of its running time it is still worth a look. The performances are all good, Ji young and Doo-na Bae bringing out very memorable performances. This film ranges from funny to poignant and back again enough times to keep you interested and its critique of life in its country is particularly resonant.It manages to frame well the thoughts of the current youth and how things never seem to go as planned, especially our dreams.

Brian Stevens I really liked the film. Kind of reminded me of a foreign "Ghost World". Had the same kind of chemistry between the girls. It is good to see that female friendship is the same all over. This is a fun movie and gives us a peak of what it is like to grow up in modern Korea. I highly recommend it!
