Prefontaine Sweatshirts

February 29



Original title: 2 월 29 일 - 어느날 갑자기 첫번째 이야기 (2 Wol 29 Il - Eo-neun- nal Kab-ja-gi-Cheot jjae Beon-I-ya-gi)
Country: South Korea
Year: 2006
Director: Jeong Jong-hoon


A strange movie that fits all 'inside of a set composed of three chapters each independent 4 Horror Tales .

Ji-yeon worked as a linesman at a highway exit anonymous like many others, spends time in the small office that serves as home every night watching TV, chatting with her friend Jong-sook, and living a decent life after all. All goes well until one night stands before a mysterious black car from which a hand covered with blood-stained hands her a red card.
From now follow an escalation of nightmares and murders, that Ji-yeon will take the edge of madness until the final confinement in a psychiatric hospital, from where reality begins and ends in the whole affair.
thread running through the entire film is doubt: doubt among which is that success and that is cioò imagined, between what is true and what is false, between story and delusional reality. Symptomatic dialogue Final "Well, now you know the truth is you take out a story" [...] but if reality seems to believe, I do not know what to believe. "

A film that does not shine for some originality or imagination, but not too obvious. Despite the inevitable moments of suspense, blood, and (attempted) terror, February 29 shows, however, some research in depth. Why is not fair to condemn him completely, especially when compared with the other chapters of the collection, which have little unusual.

Register quiet, unpretentious, mostra comunque un certo gusto per il gioco cromatico e l'inganno psicologico. Pochi attori in grado di caratterizzare discretamente personaggi purtroppo stereotipati, riescono ad ogni modo ad elevare il livello della pellicola da mediocre a passabile.
Carino.
