Did you find it funny? Answer that for yourself, not on a message board.
Developing your own tastes in cinema is what it's all about.

It does seem like a comedy. a girl working in a factory line making radios has a mental breakdown and imagiend herself being a cyborg and is institunialized. There, she meets another loonie who falls in love with her. That's what i took form the trailer.

She is not having mental breakdown just like that
she has mental breakdown becouse she stopped eating..
(she have "empty battery" problem through the whole movie)
and the whole movie is modern day battle tale against Anorexia.. -

I don't think so.
I heard Rain talking about the movie on a radio show couple days ago, he did not specifically categorized the movie as a 'romantic comedy.' He explained what kind of movie it is and that made me even more confusing. (he even mentioned some "horror.")
So, I guess we just need to wait until the movie comes out and watch it for ourselves. -

It depends on your definition of comedy, of course. I think it is, but if you know what a "biedermeier" is, I would imagine it would be like one. Hmmm but how come it has no sci-fi to it, hence the thought of herself being a cyborg. I mean, perhaps the mental institution is right for her.
However, the only answer is, go and watch the movie

yes, i learned that from Save the Green Planet!
described as a "dark comedy" and advertised as being really funny and crazy
i dont think I laughed that entire movie
i suppose it was a dark comedy but to me it was so incredibly depressing and beep up, and when the SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER aliens were real i found that ending stupid and silly and not funny
i dont know, perhaps its just me (although I have laughed at some pretty beep up things, i love the blackest of comedy, but something about this just, didnt feel like I was supposed to be laughing)
so who knows really with the way things look (although the shots revealed inthe trailer look incredibly done) -

i agree about 'save the green planet'. watched it few days back. they could have done without the 'aliens and blowing off the planet'. but you don't get this feeling with the promos and trailers of 'i am cyborg but that's ok'.
but as you said, u can't tell anything from the cleverly tuned trailers these days. besides, it's park. you never know. -

Sympathy for Mr Vengeance is a comedy. There are smaller jokes in his other movies but Sympathy is the only comedy in terms of structure. By structure I mean the entire plot setup. The misunderstandings about motives, actions and potential consequences are all deeply comic - even if they're played "dead" straight.

ha, i see your point
its like shakespeare's comedies
but i didnt really laugh at most of it because everything in it leads to such sad and tragic stuff
the only part that my friend and i laughed hard at was when he makes to punch the girl to make her cry
it was silly
i loved the film though, in case no one realized
it is beautiful! -

Mr. Veageance was nowhere near the comedy level of Oldboy or Lady Vegeance. Dark Comedys are harder to catch, most people dont like them. Its like laughing at something thats so bizzare or macabre that you really have no other reaction for it but laughter.
