I have to say this was quiet good but did not surceased my expectations, as I venture Asian cinema and discovering rear cinematic gems I stumble with some hit and miss, in the case of the great hypnotist I have to point out the good and the...average.The good You can tell there was a lot of effort placed in it as well some research on how hypnotism actually works, it's a cat and mouse game were both leads go back and forth trying to be one step ahead of the other and I have to say it's pretty good, the atmosphere is well played as both fill caged with the other.The averageThe camera style feels cheap and the effects are decent enough, the movie can be really slow with too much dialogue that wears you down you want some kind of action to happened to fill distracted and honestly it try's a bit to be smarter that it really is. In the end is a well made effort but not quiet there, a lot of the last act could easily been cut down but that's my opinion.
... View Morei got the feeling that whoever thought of this idea saw Inception and thought: "what if, instead of dreams, it was hypnotism?" idk, just how it felt.regardless, it was a pretty good movie. great visuals and it kept up the mystery factor well. The acting was pretty good with plenty of tension between the two main characters. a simple set up turned into an intriguing plot with an interesting twist that i actually didn't fully realize until it happened.Overall, it was an interesting watch. 7 out of 10. maybe pair it with Inception and compare.

At 1st I thought the movie description of the psychiatrist proving the woman's claim of seeing ghosts was no more than at best her experiencing hallucinations, when I realize the plot was not heading that way, I lost complete interest, bad enough I had to try to keep up with the subtitles.Time to start repeating myself, because I have nothing more to say.At 1st I thought the movie description of the psychiatrist proving the woman's claim of seeing ghosts was no more than at best her experiencing hallucinations, when I realize the plot was not heading that way, I lost complete interest, bad enough I had to try to keep up with the subtitles.
