Park Chan-Wook's latest is charming and entertaining, a must see movie. The main characters are mentally retarded, but absolutely cute, and lovable. Young-Goon thinks she's a cyborg, so she talks to the coffee machine, telephone , etc., and generally eschews normal human activities like eating. In her mind, she's a cyborg and only requires a good battery recharge. In reality, she's on her way to starvation. Il-sun, a young man who supposedly possesses the power to steal another person's soul. Young-Goon takes an interest in Il-Sun because she wants him to steal her humanity, so that she'll be able to execute the doctors with her bullet-shooting fingers. Il-Sun tries to help her before her cyborg fantasies end in her own death... I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK looks like a light, romantic comedy, but it has a dark side too. Absurd, surreal, and maybe at the end we find out the meaning of existence :)
MUST SEE!
