Xuxi's Favourite Movies
with some of my commentary...
-
1. Parasita
Korean Movie - 2019
This is one of those movies that I'm sure everyone's watched now and one that everyone loved since it's so relatable no matter where your from, there is this divide between the rich and poor and it really tells the story well. This definitely needs to be watched without knowing the plot or reading anything about it beforehand.

2. A Criada
Korean Movie - 2016
The story was so intriguing, there are so many twists and the actresses did an amazing job, having lesbian characters being portrayed is such a huge taboo for Korea and they did a really good job with it. I wouldn't recommend watching this with family though, it has a lot of sexual content and nudity

3. A Bruxa: Parte 1. A Subversão
Korean Movie - 2018
I honestly don't know why more people haven't watched this movie before. I only came across this movie after seeing clips on YouTube and found it intriguing and decided to watch it myself. This movie made me fall in love with Kim Da Mi, her acting was so good and so captivating, she really plays her role well.

4. Invasão Zumbi
Korean Movie - 2016
This is a classic movie that everyone should watch. It's good for the whole family and I liked how it's not like typical hero movies where the main character is this strong person and built to fight already. He actually seems like a normal person just dealing with this zombie crisis and you see a lot of character growth which I loved. It made you love the characters even more and you just want to root for them.

6. Junto Com Os Deuses: Os Últimos 49 Dias
Korean Movie - 2018

7. Dias Melhores
Chinese Movie - 2019
Man this movie really left an impact. The plot is basically about school bullying and it is actually based off a true story and it actually made me cry. I highly recommend this. I swear any movie I've seen with Zhou Dong Yu has never disappointed me

8. No Dia do Seu Casamento
Korean Movie - 2018
I remember watching this on the plane and had to stop myself from tearing up. Park Bo Young really plays the cute characters really well and I love their inside jokes and how she teased him about shitting his pants when he was drunk.

Japanese Movie - 2018

10. De Repente Dezessete
Chinese Movie - 2016
-
11. Corredores da Meia-noite
Korean Movie - 2017
I love their friendship in this movie they're such a funny duo and they're really clumsy police officers
-
12. Trabalho Extremo
Korean Movie - 2019
This was a popular movie in Korea and you can see why it's a really funny movie and I love the bond the group has
-
13. Oboreru Naifu
Japanese Movie - 2016
This movie needs a *Trigger Warning* its not for everyone to see, it's really dark and a bit slow-paced but it really leaves an impact after you watch it
-
14. Humor do Dia
Korean Movie - 2016
-
15. Eu Tenho Voz
Korean Movie - 2017
Such an impactful movie, I really didn't know what I was getting myself into when I started watching the movie. I thought this was a comedy movie because of his relationship with the old lady but damn it got deep and I later looked into the history and the whole story behind the movie and it was heartbreaking to learn about it. Definitely give this a watch!

16. Laranja
Japanese Movie - 2015
-
17. O Demônio Negro e o Príncipe Branco
Japanese Movie - 2016
The male lead is very possessive and controlling so if you're not into that type of character then this isn't the movie for you. It's very exaggerated so you can definitely tell it was adapted from a manga. Nonetheless, I liked the movie enough to have it in my favourites
-
18. Hirunaka no Ryuusei
Japanese Movie - 2017
This is such a cute romance movie
-
19. Call Boy
Japanese Movie - 2018
This needs a *Mature* tag since its basically all sex I mean it is about a male prostitute. Japanese movies and shows are so different from Korean ones since they are weirder and out there or more sexual but something about the story was just so captivating and made me want to know more. This is basically soft porn so be warned its very NSFW
-
20. Tão Jovem 2: Então você ainda está aqui
Chinese Movie - 2016
It's a cute romance story which started in school and you see they're journey into adulthood and how their relationship changes. Also, I swear the lead actress really looked like Suho with a wig, so you basically Kris and Suho fall in love LOL
