Liberation Notes TV Netflix Review

This Korean Netflix show is one of those weird ones. Not sure if it is my favorite, or just so so. I find it kind of pleasant to watch even though not that much is going on. It kind of feels like staring blankly at the grass outside the backyard on a hot sunny day when your mind just goes blank and you are neither happy nor sad just being there is good enough. I guess that sets the tone of the show as a whole.  It is a show about people who find themselves stuck or lost, with a lack of life purpose or shred of happiness. The folks in the show are all looking for a break in their monotony of life, and especially to find love and happiness.  I find the character Gu, just a very interesting and mysterious fellow, with a wicked past. Most of the characters struggle with the life's cards they are given, with 2 hr work commutes, angry bosses, to crushes 😍 that never got fulfilled. It is the progress of finding meaning in life, the fact that it is beautiful even when it is the most monotonous and mundane.  I think the show, proves that chasing the greener grass does not always more for a better life and ❤️ heart.  Life is always about the journey, the talks, the laughs, and the person sitting next to you be it a parent, sibling, friend, or lover, it is all worthwhile.

Jsa - Joint Security Area movie thoughts

​ JSA, wow what a movie! I typically don’t really care for overly macho movies, and for sure not constant-tension movies, but I still find that this movie has a lot to offer about the point of borders, enemies, and the brainwashing that happens on opposing border lines. It is a movie that shows that, as vulnerable little humans, we have pride, fear, loneliness, boredom, and the pursuit of a friend’s love.  Sometimes the extremes that one must go to protect that love and to protect the appearance of peace, and that sometimes lies are the most humanitarian thing one can do.  Park-Chan Wook knows the warmth and sheer ice-coldness of any man’s heart and he articulately puts it on display.  To show you that no matter what your illusion of control you have, you are nothing but a puppet of circumstance. 8/10

Top Gun Maverick Still Reckless and Fun

Imag e Credit:  image credit   Last night  my family and I watched the timeless classic where a 54 year old who is in unholy good shape , probably by blood transfusion from olympic athletes decided to keep the same job for 30-40 years and refuses all attempts at promotion. Wait, the job part of the story is hitting me a little closer to home than I like. Anyhow he is still the best at what he does , yeah we are tommy. Somehow he has the reflexes of a Korean Starcraft2 players with 5 espresso shots and is brought to run a suicide mission where he has been asked to teach these overhormonal kids on how to beat the odds. Unfortunately for him this is also a therapy session for his estranged pseudo-nepher Rooster who is the son of Maverick’s long lost best friend Goose (yeah cant make this stuff up) where is is trying to make up for accidentally killing the kids father by being fearless and reckless.  So the way he will save the kids' life is by using the same dis...
