a sweet popcorn film
I had no expectations of the film when i started to watch but the young girl who played Hanna was adorable and drew me in to caring what happened to her character. Yes it is a bit cliche and yes the premise of this film has been done several hundred times in different ways but I really liked the film. It has a very sincere message about being liked for who you are on the inside. Its a sweet piece of cinema and I will gladly watch it again on a rainy day when I don't want to think too hard.
One of my favorite movies!
Warning: This DVD disc is not region 1, so you'll probably need either a player that can read all regions (ex. blu-ray) or use your computer to watch. You can also see this movie for free now online at a lot of places, but if you like it you'll probably want to own it. I'd buy it here because foreign import DVDs usually cost a lot more for shipping and handling.
This is one of my favorite movies of all time! The premise is simple and borrowed, but comes off fresh because it takes a couple old stories and puts a new angle on it. It's like a prince and pauper story with a popstar instead of prince. It's like a cinderella story with evil corporation instead of evil family. It's like an ugly duckling tale with plastic surgery instead of a swan. The whole mix is set to some funky Kpop music and adds some touching realistic drama.
Hanna is a 200lb woman with a gorgeous heart and beautiful voice. Unfortunately, no one seems to appreciate this. So, she transforms...
A beautiful romcom with heart
This film is about an overweight talented singer who feels that a perfect body would solve everything. She finds out that is not the case and learns to accept herself for who she was and who she became. This movie had some poignant moments mixed in with the comedic ones. This is a honest romcom. Give it a try. :)
