I sat down to watch the 2019 South Korean romantic comedy "My Bossy Girl" without knowing anything about it. But given the title of the movie I assumed that it would be something perhaps like the 2001 movie "My Sassy Girl".
Let me just summarize this movie experience with a single word; wow!
Turns out that "My Bossy Girl" surpassed that movie by far, and this was indeed an amazingly nice surprise of a movie. And truth be told, then the South Korean cinema has a tendency of doing romantic comedies quite well. But I will say that "My Bossy Girl" was something out of the ordinary.
I really, really enjoyed this movie from start to end. It had such a beautiful story to tell, one that sinks in and sticks with you. So a big thumbs up to writer and director Jang-Hee Lee for that accomplishment.
And not only did "My Bossy Girl" have a very enjoyable, entertaining and beautiful storyline, but it also had some very impressive and captivating acting performances. I am not overly familiar with the talent of Elliya Lee, but wow she carried this movie phenomenally well with her impressive and outstanding performance as the strong-willed, life-loving, disabled girl Hye Jin. It was honestly a pure joy to watch her in this movie. And Il-Joo Ji, playing Hwi So, also put on a very good performance.
If you enjoy romantic comedies, but if you want more than just your average run-of-the-mill standard rom com, then you most certainly have to treat yourself to this movie, because it is such a good movie.
I believe that "My Bossy Girl" is a movie experience that will stick with me for a long, long time, And if you are a sentimental person, you might want to have a tissue at hand for this movie as well.
My rating of "My Bossy Girl" settles on a most well-deserved nine out of ten stars.
