Oldboy (2003)


Director: Chan-wook Park

Starring: Koreans

More Info: IMDB

Tagline: 15 years of imprisonment, five days of vengeance

Plot: An average man is kidnapped and imprisoned in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. He then is released, equipped with money, a cellphone and expensive clothes. As he strives to explain his imprisonment and get his revenge, he soon finds out that not only his kidnapper has still plans for him, but that those plans will serve as the even worse finale to 15 years of imprisonment.



My Rating: 8/10

Would I watch it again? Yep

Here's a great tale of revenge. It's a mind-fuck on us and the main character. The tagline says it all. This film is badass. Loved it. Bloody. Brilliant. Beautiful.
