Old Boy is definitely my favorite movie of this year. I loved the look of the film, I loved the whole point of the film. The acting was awesome, Kudos to all the actors. Especially Choi Min Sik, who should be nominated for something. I had to special order this baby on DVD because where I live, only "Great" films like beauty shop and other crap like that receive fanfare over here. But yeah it was worth it, I have watched it about 8 times and i still cringe every time Mr.Parks teeth get pulled out. The score is also very mellow, but there is a sense that there is more to it. The ending, WOW, I haven't seen an ending like that since Se7en. It really blew me away, i tried to watch it in English and that lasted about a minute. I mean you have to watch it in it's original language in order to grasp the power and ferocity of the actual character of Oh Dae Su and his enemy. I really felt for the guy, he is definitely one of the most developed characters in the past ten years of cinema. Choi Min Sik has a steel gaze, although it may not seem like a lot, that gaze alone you can tell the guy has been through a lot without even hearing his story. I swear i wish more people my age would appreciate films like i do, i mean I am seventeen and i am like the only Movie Geek in El Paso, Texas(Thanks Quentin:)
