Oldboy is a masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2007)

Oldboy was the first film that i have seen of the director Chanwook Park and for me this one of the best films of this decade.
The film is about a man that is kidnapped and after 15 years is finally out. He has now money, a cellphone and other stuffs but he want to know the reason of his kidnapped and have a revenge. But what he don't know is that this 15 years was the revenge against him.
This plot is one of my favourite stories ever and the way Chanwook Park make the film, with an intense beginning and a violent and amazing end is nothing but great.
Of course a film like this is not for all audiences but i highly recommend this film to anyone who loves Asian films and loves Quentin Tarantino's films because Oldboy won fame at the Cannes Film Festival and also distribution in all the world because Tarantino gave Oldboy the grand prize of the jury. I don't care if it won prize but i know that if Oldboy doesn't be in Cannes maybe in Mexico this film wasn't in DVD region 4
So in few words: Oldboy is a modern masterpiece and for me is one of my favourite films of this decade.
