Things don't quite go as plan, and Hyo-jin (Kim Jung-hwa) finds herself working at a Burger King as cover. Alas, Hyo-jin is too pretty for her own good, which immediately makes her the star "server" at the fast food chain. Soon all the boys, including failed student Ko-Bong (Gong Yu), are lining up to be served. But after Ko-Bong posts Hyo-Jin's pictures on an internet bulletin board that touts the "top Angel" working a the Burger King, it threatens to expose Hyo-Jin's cover. What's a spy to do?

My Thoughts:
The premise sounded interesting and fun, but the actual movie was rather boring. It could have been so much more. I felt that it had no real direction. Maybe I just had the wrong expectations for it.

My Thoughts:

This is a fun animated film. And I like the idea behind it. Emotions as characters in the brain... running the life you live. I lke how this shows that even sadness is an important part of life. I can see how this film could help children understand that fact. And it is all done in an entertaining way. Well worth the time put in to watch it. Recommended!

The One Where It All Began: The Pilot Marathon, a review by DJ Doena



(lit. "Turkish for Beginners")


What's the show about?"Die, in der ich meine Freiheit verliere"
(lit. "The One Where I Lose My Freedom")
Lena is happy to learn that her mother has stopped dating that "Albanian terrorist" when they announce that they are moving in together in a new home. Aside from the happy couple only Nils can see anything good in this and Lena and Cem almost instantly declare war on each other after Cem tried to bully Lena into wearing less "slutty" and more traditional clothes. For this he hires is "gangsta buddy" Costa which in itself is an odd combination since Costa is of Greek origin.

My Opinion
I love the show. Sometimes it gets a bit tiresome because Lena's and Cem's story is getting much more complicated and Lena's sometimes too egoistic and egocentric but in the end they all grow up.
