Review of The Man from Nowhere (2010) by Chuck N — 13 Jul 2011
For anyone looking to the successor to the Korean cult classic Oldboy - look no further. This film inhabits the same dark vengeful terrain as Oldboy, but it's peppered with humor and humanity throughout.
A mysterious pawnshop owner without a name goes on a bloody mission to save a young girl and her mother from organ harvesters. I was often on the edge of my seat, the villains infuriated me like they should, and though the film gripped me immediately, it just got better and better.
The climax is just astounding, with well directed fight scenes that made me wince with every punch and slash. Now available on DVD!
