OLDBOY is kickin', not lame

Rating: 10/10 (30 August 2005)

I rarely give out 10's to anything, especially when it comes to film. It's like in my business of movie posters, there's rarely a time when I call a poster "mint". It's just so rare. This movie has a lot going for it, and unless you don't listen to the guy in the first post, you'll never know what you're missing. The fight scenes, especially the one take hallway scene, are incredible. For this actor to do much of his own stunt work was great. It gave the film a presence. The opening scene in the police station was improvised and brilliant. Honestly, if you're into Tarantino, revenge or crime film, then this film is for you.
