After watching this movie thats what I came away with. It looks good but thats about it. The plot seems straight out of a TV soap. In fact the characters, plot and storyline are staples of TV soaps in East Asia.
A girl joins a rich family as a housemaid, she is seduced (and is a willing participant) by the husband. Maid gets pregnant and is found out. The "evil" mother in law (a staple of Asian soaps)schemes with her daughter the wife to make the maid lose her unborn child. maid vows revenge. Then an ending that makes no sense.
And the scenes goes accordingly to the above, there is hardly any character or plot development. No suspense at all is generated. The ending comes suddenly as there is no lead up to it. Just a sudden horrendous action.
I read in other reviews that the movie is alluding to a class struggle. I don't see it, it shows rich people behaving as they please which is again a staple of almost every movie or soap.
I expected more from this movie and it did not deliver. Better to watch one of those Korean soaps that are so popular now.....and the ending actually reinforces that thought.
