First thing I want to address is the subtitle issue, download the subtitles for the dubbed version of the movie, they are more accurate. This movie is the best piece of Asian media that I have had the pleasure of watching this year. I will not divulge into the plot of the movie, so this is not a spoiler post. The movie is a fictionalised retelling of historic events and everyone did so good. The actors were phenomenal, you really connect with them in the short time you see them on your screen. The cinematography was on point, every scene was well lit, every angle and shot told a story, the sound production is also top tier and very relevant with the story being told. And the script was just the icing on the cake. A brilliant retelling of a rather gruesome period in Korean history.

First of all let me say South Korean cinema is one of my favourite so I was looking forward to watch this movie. But after 45 minutes I couldn't take it anymore and I had to stop watching it. That's a thing I normally never do, even with bad movies, but in this case it was unwatchable due to the very bad subtitles. I see there's only one other review for Olbbaemi (or The Night Owl for the English title) and he complained about the subtitles as well, so I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that. I just couldn't continue watching a movie that didn't make any sense. In the 45 minutes nothing much happened, and there was some overacting which is rather rare with South Korean actors. I just gave up so my ratings is based on the first 45 minutes with bad subtitles.

It was completely ruined without a properly translated subtitles. The settings, the acting, camera operating, directing...etc., etc., are all pretty good, but with a barely correct translation by translation engine, the so-called AI translation, sometimes totally wrong, sometimes suddenly omitted, the available English subtitles did not help a bit but just caused more confusion. There are so many scenes without translated subtitles, or completely disappeared, or misplaced names or titles, this supposedly not bad Korean palatial thriller turned out to be quite clueless often. The actor who played the blind guy either played dumb or overacted like a numb and helpless guy. So if you don't know Korean language and completely rely on the only available but absolutely horrible subtitles which about 85% wrong or incorrect or clueless or either slower or faster 0.5 sec to match the on-screen dialog, all you could do is to GUESS to fool yourself. I wish there would be a more accurately translated subtitles that would allow me to watch it again from the very beginning. But if you understand the Korean language, you might enjoy this seriously produced thriller.

"The Night Owl" is a captivating Korean movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat with unexpected plot twists throughout. The story revolves around Kyung-soo, a blind acupuncturist who becomes embroiled in palace intrigue and conspiracies, as he attempts to uncover the truth behind Crown Prince Sohyeon's death. What makes this movie stand out is the compelling storyline and the relentless suspense that never lets up. While I wasn't entirely satisfied with the ending, as it left me wanting more closure on the fate of the crown prince's son and the political dramas, the overall experience was still enjoyable. A word of caution: Some reviews mention "bad subtitles", and it's obvious that these "reviewers" were watching the movie from dodgy sources and their so-called "reviews" doesn't hold a merit! It's essential to watch the movie through an official source to ensure accurate translations. Don't let unofficial, poorly translated versions cloud your judgement on this well-crafted film.
