Review of Dream

Dream (2023)
3/10
I cannot believe IU did this movie
30 July 2023
This movie on Netflix begins with a rapid succession of childish dialogues that may appeal to preteens. Unfortunately, it does not improve any further. The first ten minutes---is when we can tell a good movie (or drama) from a bad one. In this movie, it took me five minutes before I was about to turn it off. But I did not because IU (Lee Ji-Eun) is my most treasured Korean singer, with her velvety voice and ability to control the voice keys flawlessly. Three words sum up the movie-melodramatic, mundane, and a horrible script.

It is a pity that a top artist like IU has decided to star in this substandard movie. She should have known better-or maybe IU's manager forced her to do it for monetary reasons. Or did she agree to do it in dreams? Those who wish to see the vastly brighter side of IU's acting should see My Mister (one of the best Korean dramas) and Producer (written by the unparalleled top Korean writer Park Ji-Eun (CLOY)).
