Review of Oldboy (2003) by Edgar C — 31 Dec 2012
Arguably Park's best vengeance delivery as we see a pathetic individual being forced to a psychological transformation through dramatic altercations, melodramatic juxtapositions and, mostly, betrayal. Uncertainty and revenge are just the main dish of this masterpiece. Oldboy popularized this branch of filmmaking. Either people love it or hate it; strangely, there are no grey tones concerning people's taste. We'll see if the general opinion changes in the decades to come.
97/100.
