New Review For Movie Poetry
True to the title, writer-director Lee Chang-dong is principally concerned with rendering emotions that seem inexpressible.J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
Those with an eye for reading between the lines can find layers of meaning.
Maggie Lee-Hollywood Reporter
A deceptively gentle tale with a tender ache at its center, as well as a performance from Yun Jung-hee that lingers long in the memory.
Justin Chang-Variety
Anyone who starts a film going to poetry classes is eventually going to come up with a poem. The one Mija finally delivers will rip your heart to shreds.
David Jenkins-Time Out
Writer and director Chang-dong Lee's film is moving without ever stooping to melodrama; Yun is the main reason why.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
"Poetry" is daring in the ways only quiet, unhurried but finally haunting films have the courage to be.
Kenneth Turan-Los Angeles Times
Lee is concerned with beauty in much the same way a philosopher might be -- its transcendent nature, its presence in nearly everything.
Michael Nordine-Film Threat
A valiant and touching psychodrama about an aging woman who takes on the challenge of writing her first poem from the experiences that stir her heart.
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
A beautifully acted, deeply moving tale that brings a lump to the throat.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express
A fascinating, satisfying film with a remarkable central performance.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
In the way of good cinema, the full experience is entirely unsentimental and poetic.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
It is a picture of something inexpressibly gentle and sad, something heartbreaking and absolutely normal, but something stirred up by a violent, alien incursion.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
Beautifully shot, brilliantly written and featuring a terrific lead performance from Yun Jung-hee, this is a thought provoking, emotionally engaging drama that would make a superb double bill with Bong Joon-ho's Mother.
Matthew Turner-ViewLondon
How many times have we seen the components of this plot? The crimes of the young; the trials of the old; the lone individual fighting for truth and decency. But they were never mixed like this before.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
What makes Poetry so involving is that it's never clear how the story will be resolved.
Sukhdev Sandhu-Daily Telegraph
From Alzheimer's, rape and suicide, Lee has created real poetry.
Anton Bitel-Little White Lies
Yoon's performance, nuanced and subtle, is superb, while the film is long and languid so adjustments and allowances must be made both for its pace and, at times, for its poetry. But the effort is well worth it.
David Aldridge-Radio Times
[Yun Jung-hee's] quiet gestures, gentle gaze and tender pose transform themselves into stanzas as they rhyme with Lee's cinema.
Julian Ross-Electric Sheep
Devoid of the ultra-violence so often associated with Korean cinema, Poetry is quiet and unhurried, making its portrait of social bleakness all the more impactful.
Carmen Gray-Total Film
Well-crafted and compelling, if a little inaccessible to western audiences...
Anna Smith-Empire Magazine
Sensitive, almost to a fault, Lee Chang Dong's Poetry is a well-observed but minor effort from one of the top Korean filmmakers.
Jeremy Heilman-MovieMartyr.com
Poetry possesses a lyrical delicateness that marks it as something special, different and thought-provoking.

Movie Overview For Poetry
Grandmother Mi Ja (Yoon Jeong Hee) works part-time as a caretaker, and struggles to raise a teen grandson (David Lee, Paradise Murdered) by herself. Despite her tough situation, she speaks softly, dresses fashionably, and approaches the world with child-like curiosity. Enrolling in a poetry class, she endeavors to capture life in verse form, but her simple dream of completing a poem is stalled by the early signs of Alzheimer's disease and the heavy financial and emotional burden of her grandson's shocking wrongdoing.TagLine Poetry
