About a million years ago, I walked past the set for a movie with the dumbest title I’d ever seen-- My Sassy Girl. OK, it was actually about a year and a half ago, and it’s probably not the absolute dumbest title ever. At least it was remarkable enough for me to remember it, and wonder when this movie with the scene shot on a boulder in Central Park in fall of 2006 would ever come out. Given that it starred Elisha Cuthbert and Jesse Bradford, who don’t exactly scream “marquee names,” I wasn’t sure I’d ever see it.
There’s no release date set for the movie, but hey, at least there’s a trailer! It’s one of those trailers that gives away basically the entire plot, though there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of plot to begin with—guy meets crazy girl, crazy girl teaches him about life even though she’s, uh, crazy. I mean, this is a romance that begins when the guy rescues the girl from being hit by a subway car because she’s so drunk she passes out on the subway platform. Ah, true love.
And the scene I saw them filming is even in the trailer, right toward the end, and it seems they’re intentionally trying to make it look strange that a single tree with a few pink blossoms on it was growing out of a boulder in the middle of autumn. (I thought I was catching something the production designer hadn’t noticed) Anyway, the movie looks entirely ridiculous but maybe a little bit fun, but thanks to the glories of YouTube, you can judge for yourself. I can’t promise the movie won’t go straight-to-DVD, but at least we’ll know what we’re missing.

i've seen the original (Korean) version of this movie. it is really good. for me, the story was unique and the actors were really good. i know, many people who watche dwill agree with me to say that it is one of the best korean movies. and i've seen the trailer above, and i can say, its kinda strange. i feel like i will not enjoy the US version. anyway, if you haven't watched the original version, i recommend you to see it. i hope you enjoy it too.
i've watch the original korean movie 12 times,
the US version i guess needs a full viewing before i can judge.
based on the trailer, it looks fine, trailer can be decieving good trailer does not mean good movie, bad trailer does not mean bad movie
it seems that the story remains intact. some settings has been change perhaps to accomodate the US audience.
well, whatever the verdict is, you defenitely must watch the Original Korean "My Sassy Girl" you wont be dissapointed

This is a remake of a Korean movie by the same title. It was one of the most viewed movie in Asia.
