The Korean "American Pie"Mar 22, 2006
By GR8STUFFZ Saw this film few years ago.. Just like the title, this is pretty much the Korean version of "american pie" except it's 5 times funnier. Hopefully nothing will be cut out of the US release. Even All my Non-Korean friends still ask me to this day to let them borrow this movie again. Highly recommend this movie

good movie, not so good discApr 14, 2006
By L. Aquino Hilarious Korean sex comedy that's often compared to American Pie, Porky's, and other films of that ilk in its approach to sex, except that this one ventures into the aftermath and potential consequences.
My main gripe with this DVD is that while the Amazon description says that the disc is widescreen, it's actually presented in letterbox format (with black bars). That might not be an issue for most people, but it's a pain for those of us with widescreen TVs ... especially considering that all releases of this film outside the US are anamorphic widescreen. I'm also disappointed in the choice of "Mr. Skin" to do the audio commentary, as he seems more interested in ogling the actresses, putting down the male characters, and discussing other films than saying anything worthwhile about the film at hand. Fortunately, Matt Kennedy of Panik House chimes in occasionally on the commentary with cultural notes on Korea and Asian cinema. On a positive note, the included special features are impressive, and Panik House was kind enough to include a free Sex Is Zero sticker(!)
So overall, great film for those who enjoy raunchy sex comedies and don't mind a little dose of pathos. Not so great disc for owners of widescreen TVs or fans of enlightening commentary tracks.

Compares to US movie "American Pie"Oct 29, 2007
By Kim Kreem If you like teen targeted films with a lot of sexual humor, this film is probably perfect for you. It's funny... but not laugh my pants off funny. Its storyline isn't too bad. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 7. It's not a must see. But if you're into asian films and sexual humor you would be wrong to pass this movie up.

Finally a great Sex Comedy!May 18, 2006
By B. Murray
"javierw"
I watched Sex is Zero again last night and remember how good it was,
with all the awful comedies coming out of Hollywood right now, this is
a breath of fresh air. I remember the first thing I heard from this
movie was that it was the Korea's American Pie, but for my taste Sex
is Zero is much better. You get all gags a sex comedy should have plus
more. If you are a fan of Asian Cinema you know they like to throw
dramatic twists even in comedies and Sex is Zero is not the exception.
For example, let's say the do an Action comedy in Hong Kong like Rush
Hour, near the end one of the 2 main characters is going to die, that
throws a punch to the viewer out of nowhere, some people hate that and
others like me love it, enough of Hollywood endings. Not that I'm
saying anybody dies in this movie, this one is a Sex Comedy, not and
Action movie.
Ha Ji Won plays the lead female character, she is a sweetheart, before
watching this I saw her in a Horror movie called Nightmare, she is my
favorite Korean actress, last movie I saw her in is Duelist, you
should look for that movie too, is one of the best pieces of
cinematography I've ever seen.
Im Chang Jung plays the lead male character and he does a great job,
the guy is really funny and also shows he can act when he has to.
I got both the Korean DVD and the US DVD, both are great, but I got
the US DVD because the extra material comes also with subtitles, one
thing that the Korean release doesn't have, plus it also has a very
entertaining commentary track by mrskin, he had a lot to comment since
they didn't went shy on the nudity factor. Hope they keep releasing
Korean movies with this quality in the US.
So don't wait until Sex is Zero is remake by some money hungry studio,
do yourself a favor and watch it now, you wont be disappointed.
