Oldboy
I saw this a while ago now, but I was reminded tonight about how fucking fantastic it is.
It's a Korean movie, about a normal guy, a bit of a loser, who gets abducted and locked up in a room, without explanation, for 15 years. During the time, he sees on a television a news report about the murder of his wife, in which he is then implicated as number one suspect. His daughter is taken into care, and adopted by foreign parents. After the 15 years, he is released without explanation, again, and given 5 days to discover why he was imprisoned. It's a beautifully shot and unsettling film, with some brilliant scenes of ultra-violence. |
You dirty fucker, I was just about to make an Oldboy thread.
:mad: Looks to be a great movie, and I hope to see it this weekend. |
You haven't even seen it, you faggot. Also, you don't post here. I do.
|
Don't call me a faggot, you clover-licking leprechaun.
And I know I haven't seen it...thus my comment of "I hope to see it this weekend." |
Sounds good.
|
Yes. Particularly this bit where he beats the fuck out of about 80 people in a corridor with a hammer.
|
Won't play it in my theater. :(
|
Great movie. Great cinematography especially. Love the fight scene.
Americans are remaking it. They're gonna mess it up. |
yEAH I've been hearing about this. Really wanna see it.
|
yeah any news if its out on dvd in the u.s. and i looked on imdb and they r also planning to make an american version of the movie....i would rather see the korean one instead
|
Bought it off eBay like months ago. Haven't watched it yet though.
|
Yeah, it's a great movie, but it was made already over a year ago, how come you get it in theaters just now? Though I guess it's understandable, by the time Hero was playing in your cinemas it had already been put into DVD and VHS in here and they had actually shown it in the TV too.
|
This is like the 3rd thread about it but YES awesome film.
Watch it AAA you queer. Also anyone who doesn't know it's on limited cinematic release in the States now. |

Also, Hero is shit. I turned it off after 20 minutes or something. Awful. |
Hero made me so angry how fucking shitty it was (from a story standpoint).
|
I enjoyed hero, but I liked House of Flying Daggers better.
ONG-BAK WAS FUCKING HARDCORE THO |
