OLDBOY by Park Chan-Wook

starstarstarkorea

Dae-Su (Choi Min-Sik) is kidnapped from the street and locked into a hotel-room for 15 years without any explanation. After 15 years he is being released – also without any explanation. And now he is out for revenge.

Sounds like your standard Hollywood Steven Seagal or Van Damme revenge-thriller?

It’s definitly not!

Instead, it’s a gritty, brutal, violent story about revenge, love, hate and guilt that is unravelled while Dae-Su is first trying to find out WHO imprisoned him, and then WHY. But can he handle the truth?

Warning: Not suited for the queasy ones. Watch when you can handle dental abuse and live octopus eating only!
