A Korean sex comedy that falters halfway through
marcusgunn5 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
This cock teaser of a movie tries to pull the predominant male audience in (me included) with a few Korean chicks (which are definitely HOT) by showing flashes of skin and mammary glands..

The story is pretty simplistic. A phallic-challenged village idiot gets his hands on some magic potion, and suddenly he's the stud of the town. The first half of the movie was pretty funny and hilarious with some slap-stick comedy elements. But somehow, the 2nd half was was dragged out and tedious as the director tried to end it with some boring generic way.

Watchable for the novelty, the rare Korean-made sex comedy!!

Goofy and dumb Korean sex comedy
KineticSeoul11 October 2014
This is really a graphic sex movie or anything like that. And I do like some underdog movies, but this one just came up short. It's like watching a super goofy supernatural Korean version of the movie with Tobey Maquire and Jake Gyllenhaal...Sort of, kinda. The whole premise is dumb and it tries to go for that dumb Hollywood comedy direction. The plot is basically about a guy that has insecurity issues, thus he drinks a magic potion which gives him a large penis. And what he does with his new found gift. You aren't really going to get anything out of this movie. I personally found is slight amusing at certain points, but when it comes down to it. It's just another Korean sex comedy.

4.8/10

Funny, but not funny

This movie is humourous in the first half, but loses it in the second half. This is a Korean sex comedy and has some pretty funny jokes, but does fall flat in the second half which gets way too serious. This is not porn, soft or otherwise, there are some very short scenes of simulated sex, but everyone has their clothes on. There is some nudity in the first half, but that doesn't last long (it is a lot for a Korean movie though). All that is fine, but the second half, gets way too serious for a sex comedy, why did they go there? We were having fun with the sex jokes and innuendo, why ruin the mood?

Anyway the story is about a young man, who is not good looking, who has a problem with his p*nis, so he saves some old man and the old man tells him where this wine that will solve his problem is, of course he doesn't listen to the rest of what the old man says, and then comedy ensues. That first half was pretty well done, although I was hoping for more nudity (sometimes my 16 year old brain comes back). I did like the joke about Korean p*nis size though, Is it 3 inches, 4 inches, 5 inches? And let's not forget the odd notion that the bigger your p*nis the further and more forcefully you can pee.

It's a nice time waster but I think there are better sex comedies out there.

Less graphic sex comedy than Sex and Zen, but still worth a look.

This is a sex comedy, and has a definite Korean cultural bias.

So far no surprises, right?

However, it does have its heart warming moments, as well as the requisite WTF you expect from a certain kind of Asian comedy... I really felt the need to refute tester reviewer, as I felt his review was inaccurate. So spoiler time: if having sex with a bear, epic synchronized urination on the scale of a Vegas water feature, and complex moral redemption are ending the movie in the "usual way"... Well then listen to the other review of this movie. Otherwise, you may find it to be just the thing to fill that late night itch. Keep in mind this is not porno, but is definitely adult themed.
