Olá Fantasma (2010)

This movie will have you grow hairs on your butt. (For those who don't know, the Korean saying is, "If you laugh when you cry, you'll grow hairs on your butt/butthole.") Cha Tae Hyun is amazing, as usual, and brings life and depth to his character. The ghosts are quirky, and annoying at first, but they grow on you, and the ending will have you exit the movie with a happy sigh. For those worried about the horror factor, there is absolutely no scary scenes in the movie. In fact, you will most likely be laughing the entire way through. I definitely recommend it for everyone, even for those who don't get toilet humor (after all, you can't really have a Korean comedy without some toilet humor). There's not much else I can say without spoiling it. Please watch it. You won't regret it. Cheers!

I've just finished watching Hello Ghost and I can't help but write this while the emotions are still fresh.

The story is interesting. It starts with a somewhat serious issue of wanting to end oneself's life then continues to the more supernatural and comedic side of the story, slowly trying to subtly show wonderful things when alive. (Or at least that was what it seemed to me.) The story is not so much a predictable one, especially the ending. The ending has the ability to make one go WHOOOAAAAAAA and it is the exact same reason as to why I gave the re-watch value a low mark. Stories such as this can lose its beauty the second time watched because the element of surprise is not there anymore.

The acting of the actors are well done, especially Cha Tae Hyun. I love how "flexible" his face is. He is able to show just the right face to make the scenes really funny. It also adds to the charm of this movie.

Music isn't overly done and is put just to the right places to enhance the feelings the scene can evoke to audience.

That almost two hours of watching this is definitely worth it.

Story: This story is surprisingly simple, but there is beauty in its simplicity. The only part I do not quite like is how the story is filmed. I put this down to the directing style. If you like the slow-moving, "dry" and realistic style of movie, then you will not find this a bother.

Acting/Cast: Good acting from everyone.

Music: This is a movie. What can you expect?

Rewatch value: A good movie but not one that will score high in the rewatch value. Once you know the ending - the twist at the end, the movie will seem pretty mediocre at rewatch. Nevertheless, I will recommend this for those who had not watch this movie; just will not rewatch this myself.

Overall: A good movie and worth your time if you haven't watched it yet.

Whenever I watch a movie with beautiful directing and cinematography, I'm in for good! So this one has all the aspects of what I'm looking for. There's comedy, sadness, love story and the heartbreaking twist at the end.

For acting wise, Chae Tae Hyun once again proven himself that he's a real actor! I'm a bona fide fan of him now.

I love the music in this movie so relaxing. The story telling is one of a kind... So touching yet cozy.

As for the only downside of this movie. It actually bores me in the middle and for those who gave up half way of this movie missed the beautiful part coz the ending makes my tears flow... If any of the viewer of this movie didn't tear at all then he/she must be stoned!

So I recommend this to you guys and make sure to watch it with your family.

I am a sucker for the supernatural, comedy and a good love story, so I knew this was a movie right up my alley.. It really was and I would watch it again in a heart beat..
I love how the story evolves little by little and how the crazy ghost-seeing guy doesn't repell everyone aorund him. And I admit the ending took me by surprice.. LOVED it..! Just wished I had one a waterproof mascara, because I cried a lot, out of joy, happines and because some moments were just so beautifull I had to.
Through out this movie you really feel the joys and sorrows of the characters, the actors did an amazing job portraying the characters..
I love how it tells us someone is watching us, so even if/when we feel alone we might not be.. The world can be big and scary if you're alone..

All I have to say now is: Enjoy the movie :D

This movie was really great. Period.
The plot was very simple and basic and yet still completely refreshing with a story I hadn't seen before. It had the perfect blend of happy/sad/serious/funny moments. I found myself dying of laughter at parts and crying at other, and even at these scenes that make you cry there is still a sense of lightness to the story.
One thing I loved about this movie was how the main character just went along with it (about the ghost's tasks I mean) there is no dramatic scene where he decides to complete their wishes, he is just swept along with the flow and finds himself in random (and funny) situations that allow him to learn about himself and his life.
The acting was perfect! The acting didn't seem like a movie, it seemed like normal people giving normal unforced answers which added to simple easy feel of the movie.
And there were two HUGE plot twists that I didn't even see coming at all, which flowed with the story seamlessly and perfectly. The added to the awesomeness and depth of the story and were not just slapped on to make the story "more interesting" (which happens in movies a lot nowadays -_-)
Honestly this movie just made me smile

Good movie

Loneliness is a terrible thing. When you are alone and think, "What is the point in living?" This movie addresses this issue. I'm certainly no writer or director, but I wished that the ghosts hadn't been so caricature-like. I felt at the beginning I was watching a cartoon. I felt the same way in the Chinese version. For me, it made it hard to bond with the characters because they seemed unbelievable. The rating came up for me because of the ending, which was wonderful.

The music was overpowering and irritating during the beginning of the movie, I think it was to make us feel like this was a comedy?
