Review:
Too boot, this is the only movie that kept me silent the whole 5 minutes after seeing it. I literally could not close my mouth, but there was no sound coming out of it. Oldboy had such an impact on me that words are not enough to describe this. That's why this movie is definitely in my top 3 movies ever made. It is there because it is a solid, a lot of movies seem to miss the divine plot. Although the acting and script are top notch, the story is really the icing cake.When it comes to the manuscript Park Chan-Wook is a unique (at least in the Western standards) in his way filming. The colors are so vivid and it seems that he wanted every shot is a work of art. Tip: If you like shooting Oldboy, take a look at Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, the third part of the Park's revenge trilogy. Its still a better camera-work Oldboy. Do not expect, however, the history of the Old Boys would be very disappointed.When it comes to acting and music, this film is also one of the best movies ever made. Music sticks in your head, and every time I put Oldboy DVD and the theme song will rise, I'm just flooded with good memories (even if the plot is not a single reason to be happy). The characters will also be introduced very excellent cast. In particular, Choi Min-Sik and Yu Ji-tae put on a very convincing performance. I really appreciate this film followed as it should, take place in the top 250 but if it were up to me, it would be even higher ranking. I do not see why movies like Memento or The suspects, who are amazing pieces of film production, which undoubtedly deserves a place in the top 250, top 250 is greater than Oldboy. They serve the same thing, a good plot. But the plots cant stand in the shade, or even close to the action Oldboy. The only reason is that these two films are known and Western production. If we all live in Asia, Oldboy would no doubt be in the top 20 of all time. My advice to people who have not seen this movie yet: Go see it! This is definitely a must-see. If you have a weak stomach, pull yourself together and still see it. Dont be as low as a lot of people here in general. Look beyond the violence and see the things I mentioned earlier: a world-class acts, descriptions, music, and last but not least the plot. Once you have opened yourself up you'll find a whole new world of cinema. Enjoy!
