Family Gravesite (2024)

Slow paced, but in a good way

Let me just start this off by saying I do not entirely enjoy watching thrillers. I tend to find them a bit boring at times with just how slow they can move along and end up dropping them halfway through. When it came to this series on the other hand, it was slow at the beginning but once I got over episode 3, I feel like the episodes flew by.

When it comes to the story... just wow was it messed up. I was shocked by just how dark and twisted it was going to be, not something I anticipated when I put it on my to watch list. This is definitely a series that I can say I have never seen anything like it before and I would not say I was unhappy with anything that happened throughout this short series, but the pacing is just so slow during the first half that it felt as if it was dragging along.

Favorite character of the series has to go to Choi Sungjun who is played by Park Heesoon. Seeing the dynamic that he has with Park Sangmin and their issues grow throughout the show to see how it also ends. I especially love how they show Sangmin telling Sungjun to go visit his son and the last scene of the series we see is him going to visit his son. Just touches my heart.

Brilliant From Start to Finish

This was a superbly directed, excellently acted, perfectly paced, satisfyingly finished, extremely well-told story.

Being someone who prefers a well-told story over one filled with unnecessary filler dialogue, gore, action, romance, and sidekick characters, I have to give this a 10/10 for having absolutely none of those things. Everything, every scene, every character had a story and a purpose that you weren’t left hanging too long to find out what that was.

I’d like to see much more of this type of directing in the future.

If you are after non-stop action, this probably isn’t for you. If you like a well told story, it most definitely is.
