Handsome Guys Movie Poster

[MOVIE REVIEW] Handsome Guys (feat. Lee Sung Min, Lee Hee Jun, Gong Seung Yeon)

Where do I even begin with this review… I went in not knowing anything about the plot and I think that was a great ides because I was even more surprised and delighted at everything that went on during the movie.

But I’ll give the main gist of the plot here if you don’t want to go in blind like me.

Handsome Guys Movie Still

Jae-pil (played by Lee Sung Min) and Sang-gu (played by Lee Hee Jun) are friends who end up purchasing a house in the countryside that harbours a dark secret. They are warm-hearted people who always try to do the right thing but constantly find themselves in ridiculous situations that paint them in a bad light, especially because of the way they look. Which brings us to the title of the movie that is basically a joke (although a painful truth) about how people in general stereotype “ugly people”.

Gong Seung Yeon plays a college student who’s on a trip with her friends when she ends up seemingly kidnapped by Jae-pil and Sang-gu. And so ensues all the misunderstandings and crazy accidents that happen to the characters, one by one.

It’s been a while since I laughed so much in the theatres, especially because the selection of movies as of late has been rather depressing or serious. Ironically, the movie revolves around a demon, and sacrificial humans, so there is some violence and blood (fair warning!) but it’s mostly censored so there’s no need to worry if you hate gore like me.

I won’t go any deeper into the plot because I really think it’s best enjoyed with your own eyes. The casting was great, everyone played their parts perfectly, and there was never a dull moment throughout the movie!

If you’re looking for a comedy to watch this season, I highly recommend checking out Handsome Guys so you can enjoy a ridiculously funny time at the theatres like I did. Oh and I found out belatedly but this is actually a remake of the 2010 Canadian horror-comedy film Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, in case anyone’s watched that!
