    Editorial Reviews

    Korean director Kim Ki-duk's Buddhism-inspired fable takes place on a placid lake nestled among hills on which floats a small, one-room monastery housing two monks, one old and one young. The action takes place over the course of several years, and is divided into five sections denoted by the seasons of the title. While each section tells a story of its own, the overall plot follows the education of the younger monk, a small boy in the beginning, as he learns lessons over the course of his life from his aging counterpart. Troubled outsiders also visit the monastery seeking guidance, including an ill young woman and a man who murdered his wife. As the title suggests, the film's ultimate theme is cyclical renewal. Just as the seasons pass through phases of birth and death and rebirth, so do the lives of Kim's characters. ~ Tom Vick, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide

    April 12, 2007: If you're into American/MTV/ADHD-type movies, you definitely won't be into this film. I usually can't sit through movies that I find slow and boring, but I didn't have that problem with this film at all. I thought it was quite interesting and engaging. I recommend watching it yourself to decide your own opinion, especially if you're interested in Asian culture and cinema.

    October 27, 2005: If you get over-excited watching paint dry then this movie may be your type of thing. The cinematography is quite nice, if you can keep your eyes open long enough to appreciate it. My advice: find a better way to waste two hours of your time.
