Vengeance born of the sinful taboo- Oldeuboi #8

Rating: 9/10 (28 December 2017)

Spoilers Ahead!
Oldeuboi is a phenomenal film. This film is excellent for those looking to become in touch with the taboo, the mysterious, and the psychological. I absolutely adore this film, at first I thought this film was a bit melodramatic and vague but it turns out it was all intentional. The film's rousing story line is intriguing in that the steps in the story's sequence seem to be off, until we are hit with the big late game catalyst in Dae-Su finding the the yearbooks at his old school. You at the point of meeting Lee Woo-Jin (for me at least) become attached and almost sympathize with him and when this critical moment is hit is hit and we reach the climax of the film, We (the viewers) feel inclined to feel sorrow for the (at this point) formerly mysterious antagonist.
As for Music in his film:
The Last waltz-is a beautiful longing piece at the end of the film that really conveys the feeling of Dae-Su.
Farewell My lovely-My favorite piece in the entire film, this song acts as a representation of Lee Woo-Jin's feelings or emotions. The Gunshot sound at the end adds major emphasis on the pain of Lee Woo-Jin .
While some can be very long, the actions scenes in this film are very well choreographed and have a rough and (in some cases) gruesome air about which is done right.

This film deserves a high rating and needs to be viewed by more.
