KPop Demon Hunters

rotten

K-Pop Demon Hunters was recommended to me but I am very disappointed. The movie starts and the first thing I see is what looks like AI generated visuals touched up by humans. Not saying that's what it is or isn't, that's what it looks like. Soulless. Next thing I hear is "this person comes from the United States"... and I was like wait... all the voices are in American English so what are you talking about? I noti...

I don't want to say anything because I don't want to create expectations and this is one of those films where I'd recommend going in as blind as possible. – But don't sleep on this movie! Even if nothing about the premise of this movie appeals to you, I would still say it's worth watching.

I enjoyed this movie, but boy do I have issues with the storytelling and the glamorizing of K-pop idols' lives. SPOILERS AHEAD: 1. Rumi was born part-demon, right? Her mother was a demon hunter and her father was a demon, which implies that not all demons are evil, right? Yes? No? We are never told how Rumi's mother died and we are never told what happened to Rumi's father, but I highly doubt that Rumi's mot...
