Review of Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance (2002) by Eric B — 19 Feb 2010
Fantastic revenge movie with depth. The first half is a little slow, but with purpose of setting up the whole situation. Once the setup is done, it jumps into revenge mode real quick. I think the best aspect of the movie is that the two characters seeking revenge are both likable by the audience.
You are stuck debating which character seeking revenge you want to cheer for and in the end, both offer a good argument. A good start to Chan-wook Park's revenge trilogy.
