Good movie, ice storyline. I enjoyed all 3 in the series (Whispering Corridors & Wishing Stairs). This movie was hard for me to follow at times, like Whispering Corridors was too, because it jumps around at times and can be hard to follow. I would recommend this movie and the other 2 in the series also.
kind of sad, actually a little bit romantic. I liked it as much as the first movie in the series. Was it a masterpiece? maybe not but solid and good.
I liked this one a little more then the first in the series, it moves at a slightly more engaging pace and contains a lovely bittersweet love story
It's a good coming of age movie and I think the plot would be alright as a horror story if the film didn't seem to jump around so much. There were times where it felt like watching Pulp Fiction, but not understanding the scene shifts. There's one scene where a character is simultaneously inside a classroom and out in the hall. You can follow the plot, but it doesn't seem to have a linear time-flow for most of the film. There also seems to be a rather large culture gap here and that's coming from someone who is more well-versed in Asian cultures than your average movie-goer.
I really liked this movie!
