This movie was absolutely flawless, the main leads and supporting cast were impeccabile, the cinematography, execution was all perfect.
It pulled me in from the first scene, and even though so parts were impossible to watch, I had to continue.
Gong yoo was absolutely perfect as the main protagonist, I have a huge problem with movies like this where they have a superhero-like character come in and safe the kids from the horrible people.
Gong makes the character so relatable, he isn't trying to save lives but does what I think majority of people in that situation would have done making it very realistic, and does so without shouting and screaming too much - he manages to show every single emotion with just a look on his face.
The kids, *sigh* the little boy particularly, I want to give him an oscar for his performance. I mean wow.
I would say only watch this movie if you have a very strong stomach for things like this, and it will surely leave a huge impact on you.
Only reason I rated the re-watchability a "2" was because I really could never watch it ever again.

However, it still managed to be entertaining with the sci-fi twist and of course the star of the show Jun Ji Hyun- whom I believed if wasn't casted as main lead, this drama would be such a big hit.
She brings something new and fresh as a main lead, is so relatable,, fun,and absolutely HILARIOUS - like laugh out loud funny. Another thing I like is how managed to bring a lot of depth to her character - which I feel is something not a lot of mainstream actresses are able to do with their roles.
Kim Soo Hyun I think was pretty decent, he seemed a bit too stoic and dull at times,I understand he was supposed to be an Alien but I would have appreciated if he came to life more on screen and gave us versatility.
There is great chemistry and some really touching moments between the two main leads without it ever being too over-dramatic and cheesy.
Overall it was a very enjoyable drama, with a great leads and some golden moments which saved it from being an all around cliche fest.
