从我开始看Webtoon开始，我就知道有这部漫画的存在，不过没去阅读过。偶然得知这部漫画会有真人版之后，我就去翻阅了漫画。
这，真的是一部很引人思考的漫画...

As I previously said, I went to watch the movie without knowing a single thing about it. Heck, I didn't even watch the trailer. The movie has an interesting plot, it's about a man going through the judgements in the afterlife, according to Buddhist scriptures. I gotta say that it's really interesting how they have different punishments for different sins. I know this judgement thing in general but it's fascinating to see it on the big screen.
The protagonist became dead as soon as the movie started and we followed his journey through the trials he had to go through. He died in a fire while saving someone's life so he was considered a nobleman. He was accompanied by 3 grim reapers that would defend him for all the trials so he could reincarnate. I think the idea of a court system like we have was really interesting. This is because I imagined it more like you meet god and god spit out your crimes and you get punished.

我知道真人版总会有些修改或变动，所以我就抱着了一个尽量不带任何偏见的心情去看这部电影。不过，我还是多多少少会拿来比较。
故事讲述人死后49天内所要经历的审判，看看这人是否能够投胎或需要受罚。
电影的故事情节更改了很多，更是把漫画里的某位主要人物删除了，而漫画里的两条主线也被改成了一条完整的主线。这可以说是好事，因为以电影来说，的确需要一个完整的故事线。漫画里的两个主线主角是不认识彼此的，更是毫无关联；但电影里，他们是两兄弟，而且还是在单亲贫困家庭里成长。
在故事情节上，编剧把重点转移到了亲情上，也写得更加煽情。如果是泪点低的人去看，一定一定要准备好纸巾，而且还是一大盒的纸巾。
这集的某些情节也有和第二集的做一点结合，所以看过漫画的人很容易就能将它们连接起来，更加能够理解导演编剧的幽默。
The protagonist goes through a few trials because different gods are in charge of different sins. They also punish you differently. At first, I was chill because I didn't murder anyone or like did something really bad. Then when we got to lazy hell, I was a tad nervous because I was sure to get stuck at the lazy hell. I felt ultra guilty. I do not want to be rolled flat by a perpetually moving gigantic rolling pin nor do I want to get eaten by human-looking piranhas.
Also when I went to watch it, a lot of people told me I would be crying like crazy. So when after an hour passed, I was still dry-eyed, I thought maybe I'm just a heartless human being. Then at the last part of the movie, I started bawling because that was when shit got real.
I don't want to spoil the plot for you so I'm not going to go into details of the story. However, I would tell you it's a story about family and friendship. I'm not gonna elaborate anymore than that so you can experience everything for yourself.
Now moving on to why the movie was not perfect. First the ghost CGI was kinda like Electro from Amazing Spider-Man 2, in fact also had powers like Electro. Since Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a crappy movie, it is not a good thing. The inconsistency of the younger brother's feeling is also a bit off for me and takes me out of the moment. I get that they're trying to make the plot unexpected, which worked but at least give him some consistency or a reason for the change and not just change his attitude nilly-willy.
这部电影除了剧情出色之外，他们的特效也真的很不错，尤其是江林公子追杀冤魂的场景。那一幕幕快速移动的场景，不仅动作和镜头流畅，也让人看得很过瘾。这和地狱场景是不一样的层次，地狱场景可以用绿幕，可这一些都得是实景拍摄，能拍得那么流畅真的不容易。有多少部电影让我看了头昏脑涨，可这一部和《大娱乐家》的镜头都让我不禁竖起拇指给个赞。
对于地狱的描述，编剧并没有太多详细写出来。除了前面几个地狱和最后的天伦地狱，其他的地狱都轻轻带过，感觉有点浪费了那些实力派演员。
如果非得比较，漫画里的地狱比较让人觉得好笑。那是因为漫画里的地狱都很现代化，有汽车房子巴士，更好笑的是阎罗王还在尝试适应电脑。对于地狱里其他的场景也有更加多的描述，带我们看到更完整的地狱。
电影的地狱就比较偏向于传统印象里的样子，古代的大王判官服饰、昏暗、让人心生恐惧、恐怖模样的随从，电影将它们全部呈现在我们眼前。
如果真的要说不好的地方，那就是解怨脉的设定完全改变了嘛~ 我的暖男大叔呢？怎么变成一个那么轻浮的大哥？虽然还是一样可靠，但这不是我要的嘛！
另外就是有些场景的灯光设的有点暗，我都看不清楚到底他们在做什么了，只能大概猜一下。再来就是前面的剧情有点拖泥带水，感觉拖了一点节奏。明明前面几个地狱都很认真审判，可是到了中途，很多注意力都转移到冤魂那里。我觉得有点可惜，因为那几个地狱也是值得一看的。

Anyhow, this movie was really good. The story was good and the cinematography was not bad. I was pleasantly surprised to find myself liking it so much. I totally recommend you guys to watch it.
这是一部非常值得一看的韩国电影，不论是故事情节、特效、演员，都做得很不错。虽然我们没有故事里的悲惨身世，但他的经历都会让我们检视自己，是否真的过得问心无愧。
不论你是为了什么而进场，都请你好好地享受这部电影，并仔细的思考这部电影背后所要表达的意思。可别哭完了，就忘了电影的教诲！
