Viewing Notes

Has a lot going for it like the nearly all-Asian cast and having Twice perform the songs (all the tunes in the movies have hooks heard in kpop, which is amusing to hear). But the retread plot of “I’m a demon hunter but also a demon” was old as soon as it’s introduced. The entire film rests on that and it is not very interesting against all the other cool things they could’ve done w/this girl group fighting demons.

Also, no Korean language track*? Probably the thing that annoyed me the most given the entire premise of the movie: KOREAN POP GROUP IN SOUTH KOREA THAT FIGHTS KOREAN DEMONS

The demon cat is the absolute best thing and I want one. Not the actual cat but a figure I can put on my coffee table.

* English voice acting is decent and reunites Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim so I was okay with it but really wanted to watch this movie in Korean.
