00:00just so you know every single visual you're about to see in this deep dive is taken directly from
00:07the film itself this is Cinescope and this is your exclusive breakdown so let's get into it
00:13we open on Gloria a writer in New York City and to put it bluntly her life is a mess it's just a
00:20blur of late nights and way too much drinking her talent it's kind of getting lost in the haze
00:25and her relationship with her boyfriend Tim is hanging on by a thread yeah and that thread
00:30finally snaps Tim's had enough he confronts her but it's already over her bags are packed and waiting
00:36by the door just like that she's out shocked homeless she's got nowhere to go but back to
00:42the one place she has left her empty childhood house in her tiny hometown and her new life starts
00:47on an inflatable mattress on a cold dusty floor you gotta understand this isn't just about moving
00:53this is the cold hard proof that her life has completely imploded she's hit absolute rock
00:59bottom the next day she randomly bumps into Oscar a guy she knew from when they were kids turns out
01:05he owns the local bar now he can see she's not doing great so he offers her a job and invites
01:10her to come hang out with his buddies Joel and Garth honestly it feels like the first good thing to
01:15happen in ages but that night that lifeline starts to feel more like an anchor dragging her right back
01:21down Gloria is really trying not to drink but Oscar just slides a beer right in front of her
01:26it's subtle but he's basically enabling the exact thing she needs to escape before she knows it the
01:33night blurs into that same old pattern and she ends up stumbling home totally alone she wakes up the
01:39next morning to news that is just unbelievable a giant monster has attacked Seoul South Korea and get
01:44this it's the same city where there was some weird sighting like 25 years ago she's just glued to the TV
01:50watching this footage in total horror the destruction is immense it's terrifying so the next night after
01:57another round of drinks with Oscar's crew she hears the monster is back it showed up at the exact same
02:02time 8.05 a.m. Korean time but this time was different it didn't go on a rampage it just kind of stood
02:09there looking confused and then it scratched his head and that little gesture it's disturbingly familiar
02:14to her a really cold weird feeling starts to creep in that head scratch thing it isn't just familiar
02:20it's hers it's her own specific nervous tick and this impossible thought starts to take root in her
02:27mind is there some kind of link between what she's doing and the chaos happening halfway around the world
02:32okay so how is this even possible right driven by this insane question Gloria actually starts to
02:39investigate she literally gets maps of Seoul and her hometown and starts comparing them and when she
02:44lines them up she finds this chilling one-to-one connection the monster's location in Seoul corresponds
02:51perfectly to one single place in her town the local kids playground so at exactly 8.05 in the morning
02:58she goes to the playground to test this insane theory she walks onto the sand raises her arms kind of
03:03shuffles around later she watches the news and the footage is undeniable the monster did every single thing
03:10she did move for move the horrifying truth just comes crashing down the destruction the people who died
03:17she caused it she knows she has to tell someone so that night she brings Oscar Joel and Garth to the
03:22playground they've got a live feed from Seoul on a laptop right at 8.05 she steps into the park and on the
03:29screen the monster appears and to prove this completely impossible thing is real she makes it dance
03:33you can just imagine their faces their shock is just absolute they're not just looking at their drunk
03:39friend anymore they're looking at a god and a destroyer but then the demonstration takes a terrifying turn
03:46military jets start swarming the creature in Seoul and they just open fire the attack is happening
03:51thousands of miles away but Gloria feels every single hit the pain is just coursing through her body
03:57like she's the one being shot at and as Gloria is reeling from this assault a second colossal figure just
04:04appears in Seoul it's a giant robot at that exact moment back in the park Oscar steps onto the playground
04:10right next to her it's him he's in control of the robot suddenly the friendly childhood friend is revealed to be
04:16another monster entirely just racked with guilt Gloria tries to make things right she gets a message translated into Korean
04:23that's basically a giant apology the next morning she uses her monster to carefully write it out on the
04:28ground in Seoul the whole world is watching completely stunned they think it's a sign that this creature is intelligent
04:34now what's really fascinating is how the whole dynamic just flips Oscar who seemed like the supportive friend
04:41gets completely drunk on this newfound power for him this isn't about fun anymore it's about control he starts using his robot to taunt Gloria
04:49to terrorize Seoul all fueled by this deep ugly resentment he's been hiding and his behavior gets more and more abusive
04:56he hates that Gloria is trying to do the right thing and he starts using this power to control her
05:01he threatens to go on a rampage in Seoul if she doesn't have a drink with him
05:05literally forcing her back into the exact toxic cycle she was trying to escape
05:09it all escalates to this violent confrontation right there on the playground
05:13when Gloria slaps him her monster mirrors the exact action slapping Oscar's robot across the city
05:19and the irony is just incredible because the world sees this as the good monster protecting the city from the bad one
05:25it turns Gloria into this accidental celebrated hero
05:28so this is the crucial point Oscar traps her completely
05:33he actually pushes her down on the playground and gives her this absolutely chilling ultimatum
05:38if she quits her job at his bar if she tries to leave him in any way
05:42he will unleash his robot and completely level the city of Seoul
05:45she's his prisoner and an entire city is the hostage
05:48the climax really hits when Gloria's ex Tim shows up trying to get her back
05:54Oscar's jealousy and his possessiveness just explode
05:57to prove that Gloria will never ever leave him
06:00he lights a massive firecracker inside his own bar
06:03destroying everything in a drunken violent rage
06:06his need for control is so total he would rather burn his own life to the ground
06:10then let her go
06:12in that moment of fiery destruction
06:15a memory comes flooding back to Gloria with perfect clarity
06:18it was a school project a little diorama of Korea
06:21the wind blew it away and a young Oscar found it
06:24and then in a fit of jealous anger
06:27he just stomped it to pieces and right then a bolt of lightning struck them both
06:32she finally gets it his resentment isn't new it's this deep self hating anger that he
06:38got left behind while she got out of their small town a little later Gloria happens to
06:42see her parallel map hanging upside down and it hits her an epiphany the connection
06:47isn't just parallel it's inverted if she's in her hometown her monster is in
06:52Seoul but what if she went to Seoul where would her monster appear then and this leads to the
06:58final showdown Gloria gets on a plane and flies to Seoul
07:02when Oscar finds out she's gone he storms to the playground in a rage materializing his robot
07:07right in the middle of the city as people are running and screaming Gloria just calmly
07:11walks toward the giant machine back on the playground Oscar feels the ground start to shake
07:17he looks up in absolute mind-numbing terror as Gloria's monster appears towering directly in
07:23front of him and this this is the payoff in Seoul Gloria stands her ground she's not running anymore
07:29on the playground her monster mirrors that strength it reaches down picks up the screaming terrified
07:35Oscar and with one final decisive move hurls him into the distance severing their toxic connection
07:41for good and as Oscar is finally vanquished her monster just vanishes in Seoul his robot winks
07:49out of existence Gloria just walks away finally in control and finally completely free for more
