The perfect movie exists. It's called Oldboy.

Rating: 10/10 (18 January 2018)

Normally i am very careful, when it comes to topics like this. But Oldboy just blew me away. I have seen many movies over the years but still, the quality of this one has not been reached by any of them. Oldboy really makes the most of every of it's aspects. Cinematography, editing, performances, character writing or just the brilliant twisted story are absolutly unique. By the way, the thematics and symbolisms of this movie are also highly recommended to any hobby-philosophers. The way how Chan-Wook Park handled the back story of the movie's antagonist, is not only relatable, but also kind of daring. You see his point, although you do not agree with his actions. Oh Dae Sue on the other hand, is a great protagonist. He's got a simple motivation, and is marked by 20 years of isolation, but also possesses some emotional spots and is more vulnerable than ever. The movie has a message and doesn't only rely on it's astounding directing. There a many visual metaphors and it touches on many social-critically questions. I am sure, everyone will get something out of it's story. Simply a perfect movie.
