This customer review refers to Daisy: Director's Cut Limited Edition DTS

Superb action-drama!!! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10

First of all I just want to say that I don't reveal any important parts of the storyline in this review, and secondly, the Director's Cut Limited Edition box comes with two versions of the film: the 'International Director's Cut' which is just over two hours in length, and the 'Korean Theatrical Release' which runs for about one hour and fourty minutes. This review is for the 'International Director's Cut' as i haven't watched the 'Korean Theatrical Version' yet. And just to clear it up, one review on Yesasia claims each version has a different director, this is not true as both versions of the film are directed by Andy Lau.

As a devoted collector of Korean cinema I was eager to get my hands on this dvd set, now I have....Great. The plot is about an interpol agent and an assassin who both fall in love with the same girl, an artist who sketches and paints portraits in the town square. The first half of the story is revealed to the audience through the three main characters one at a time. Then, once all three characters have told us their story the film continues in the present. It is a love film, but it is also an action film, and for me the balance between love and action is just right, putting this film near the top of my list of favourit films to come out of Korea. It is extremely moving and although the action sequences may be few and far between for some people, they are very realistic and hit the screen hard (the first major action scene was quite a shock and scared the crap out of me). The acting all-round is excellent and very realistic and as a big fan of Jeon Ji Hyun I was very moved by yet another breathtaking performance. Some viewers may find this film difficult to enjoy due to its intensity (the tone of the film shifts quite drastically about a third of the way in from light and happy to pretty sad and dramatic), that said, it's what makes the film as good as it is. Personally I was hooked from the moment I pressed play to the very end. So if you like top-notch Hong Kong action, full-on Korean drama and Jeon Ji Hyun, you'll love Daisy.
