Meet Mr. Daddy

About This Movie

Meet Mr. Daddy is a gritty drama that unfolds in a rather raw and unpolished manner. The film explores the relationship between a little girl and her father Jong Dae, who’s not exactly your typical role model. He’s entrenched in the underbelly of society, a small-time criminal with a life marred by choices that lead him to a junkyard trailer by the sea. There’s a sense of desperation in his character; you can feel the weight of his regrets. The pacing is a bit uneven, which actually adds to the tension. The performances are solid, especially how they convey the fraught dynamics of a daughter desperately seeking connection. The practical effects and setting enhance that bleak, yet strangely poetic atmosphere that lingers long after the credits roll.
