Miss Granny is a heart warming, musical, comedic, family, fantasy movie. This has slapstick comedy along with heartwrenching emotional scenes. weird combo. right? this movie is much more than the synopsis given. so dont let synopsis fool you.
Story
An old granny got a chance to go back to her teenage. Isnt that everyones dream. ohhh. Yess. she is back to her prime age and she can live in her glorified days. will she make same choices like her past. or will she do something different. this is actual premise of the story.
comedy springs from the encounters she has with her family. they were just so hilarious. although she is in youth, she is still old grandma inside. the generation gap within herself becomes so significant that you cant help but laugh out. also comedy felt meaningful. There are scenes that are thought provoking.
Acting
Na moon Hee churned out great performance. she has little screen space, but she was soul for entire movie. she did brilliant, soul stirring job. her eyes expressed varied emotions like pain, disappointment, contentment, proudness and what not. character she played Oh Mal soon is so dear to me, i am so glad that this movie introduced to her.
Oh Mal Soon is none other than my grandmother. Their personalities are very similar and match like 80 percent. she lost her husband when she hit age 30. she had one daughter and son. her son is my father, born with physical disability. however she is not poor, but had to raise her physically disabled son alone. and to heighten suffering, she lost her daughter to cancer at age of 40. she took the responsibility to raise her daughter's kids too. with no bread winner in her family, she managed to live decent life with inheritance she had . She never cared about herself. she do not mind wearing same old saree in all occasions. She loves cooking and sharing it with others. she values food more than dressing herself
she is strong, independent woman even at her old age. she never depended on her son. she badmouths everyone and also gets in to fight. she died this dec 2015 due to heartattack. my last memory of her is painful
she was in hospital ICU fighting for her last breath. And then she asked me to make a healthy snack for my father that would help in healing backbone issues.
oh i deviated myself from reviewing. so what i want to say is, i got connected to her character from the start.
shim eun kyeong is talented actress. she was really good in doing halmoni type antics. she was cute, lovely, caring and did a great job. my favourite scene is her talk with his son at climax. i wont spoil it. it was so special
And the ending came. BAM.......aigoo. i was crying and laughing at the same time. ha ha. . i didnot expect this from this movie at all. i thought i will laugh well, close my laptop and get back to sleep.but i am taken aback by the surprise,it had.
Music:
is really good. it has good classical stuff which were made lively and catchy. i am humming myself with her. especially white butterfly and raindrop songs. these songs do not have any language barrier. anyone should be able to enjoy them.
i already rewatched it. XD
DISCLAIMER:
although this movie has good comedy, it may not be everyones cup of tea. her grandma antics sometimes can be awkward and causes second hand embarassment. so i suggest to watch trailer beforehand and then decide.
