TWENTY (2015)
Leave it to the Koreans: even when they do a "raunchy" (raunchy by Korean standards, that is) buddy comedy, they still manage to instill the film with a touch of heart - and your eyes with a tear or two. Womanizer Chi Ho, comic book artist Dong Woo, and kindhearted Kyung Je are all just twenty years old, suddenly realizing while the world is at their disposal, the time may be coming when they need to start looking at what they really want to do with their lives. First on the agenda seems to be love - or, for handsome Chi Ho, getting laid; that is, until his rich parents try cracking down on him to get serious by cutting off his money. Meanwhile, Dong Woo tries to pursue his dream by attending school to be an animation artist, and Kyung Je finds his career track in college changed when he meets a beauty who is also the smartest gal in school. The film is low on plot, basically the story of three best friends trying to find their way and find love - at times silly and laugh-out-loud funny, but also with moments of heart and soul. (not rated) B+
