a great B-movie

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

Seeing so many comments on Oldboy,I find it difficult to comment on it. I personally like the film.Everything is magnificent--the directing,the acting,the music... I admit that I felt confused and uncomfortable the first time I saw the film.But it got better and better and now I can enjoy it over and over.It's just like Fight Club or Muholland Dr.The perfect directing of the film will make everything unbelievable believable.I know why some people hate the film.It's just suit for those who like violence but don't have a history of violence. Oldboy will set their pressure free.The attitude toward this film should be like this:if you love it,rate it for 10;if you hate it,rate it for 1. There's no middle area.Even though the film has many weak points,I think it's still better than some blockbusters that when you're watching it,you think it's spectacular,but when you rate it, you just give it a 6 or 7.
See it again,maybe this time you'll be hypnotized by Chan-wook park.
