De-Sou I pity you!!

Rating: 9/10 (22 December 2016)

Oldboy (not the 2013 ,the original) is striking example of an cult action film and even now, it is praised for its acting, action scenes and story which has one of the most shocking plot twist in film history. So it is time to cut my teeth to this little gem.
In short the story follows De-Sou ,a worker who in 1988 is kidnapped and he is held for 15 years and after wards he is released and now he tries to find out who held him and secondary after why for his antagonist Lee Woo-Jin (great villain) forces him in order to finish his "game" with him. At the same he befriends a young chief Mi-do ,with who they get on with on the bed (---) if you have seen the film you know what is coming. Also we see some of the most intense and brutal action scenes in history, especially the hallway , wow my it was brutally awesome.
AND now the plot twist, if you don't know it skip this paragraph.
Lee reveals that he hypnotize De-Sou and his daughter ,who is actually Mi-Do ,in order for them to get close ,so he knows how feels like when you lose someone close ,as Leee was so close with his sister,when he and De-Sou were classmates in school. That practically breaks De-Sou and makes Lee the winner of this sick "game" , so De-Sou cuts his tongue as a show to Lee in order to keep that secret ,between the two. After that Lee, commits suicide because he realized that his revenge can't bring his sister back from the dead. In the end De-Sou "ask" the doctor how messed with his head to erase his memory as for him to live in peace with Mi-do. As if this last hypnotism worked it is up to you.
All in all Oldboy is neat, brutal ,awesome and traumatic neo-noir and it is recommended for crime-seekers everywhere. But if you are unable to deal with violence, that kind of mystery and plot twists ,it is better to pass this one. BUT don't what the Spike Lee remake for it is awful and boring as hell.
