Oldboy (올드보이)
I watched the Korean film "Oldboy" (올드보이) last year on its opening night in the theatre. Watching it again just make me to love this film even more. I just admire how the director tells this incredible story. He brings its audience to the extreme to take a deep look at the human nature itself. I still had to look away during some of the scenes in this film, even I have seen so many Korean films. My nerve is still quite week facing blood. Oh, how much I love Woo-jin's closet. It opens from the middle when it senses his approaching. I need a closet like that, some day. This is a master piece of Korean cinema. I don't know what Hollywood has been smoking even thinking about remaking this film. I totally agree with one person wrote on the IMDB: "If they remake this I will seek vengeance myself!!!" My rating: 10 out of 10. |
