2009: Lost Memories

2009: Lost Memories is a Korean science-fiction movie that moves within a police drama. It's almost perfect, but loses points for: extremely inaccurate police protocols, overacting, scene transitions that belong in soap operas, unrealistic gun fight sequences, and staged drama. It does have an excellent story, great actors, very good audio production, and extremely thought-provoking issues run throughout the story. I also liked the use of natural lighting. What really makes this movie worth it are the ideas revealed, and how they are revealed, in a manner which forces you to appreciate the efforts of people who fought for what they believed in. With a better director, this film would have been perfect.
