Going to see Oldboy tonight. Spike, don't let me down.

[JulesWinfield]

Gonna see this soon. Hope I'm not disappointed. Loved the original.

I might check this out. Wasn't all that crazy about the og one, tho.

 

[gho3st]

Most of us read the manga so we all know how it will end

 

[HHR]

I just rewatched the OG this week since the new one wasn't showing anywhere here....but I'm still interested in Spike's take

 

[Bud Bundy]

decent remake. They changed somethings but all in all the same story. Not bad though.

 

[Makavalli]

Never saw the og. fukked up ending. Like 3 black couples walked in bay plaza like "oh hell nah"

 

[thesandman]

the vilian was too over the top and the Hammer fight scene could NOT have been done by spike...that sh1t look like a rehearsal scene. When the n1gga in the sho nuff silk karate gi started doing his TNMT Leonard impression..I was done

 

[hex]

I wouldn't even put it in the top 5 of best South Korean movies in the last ten years, nor do I consider it Park's best movie.

What is then, for both?

Fred.

 

[TheGodling]

What is then, for both?

Fred.

In no particular order:

I Saw The Devil
Gwanghae (Masquerade)
Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter... and Spring
A Bittersweet Life
The Chaser

And Park's best movie to me is Joint Security Area, which he did before breaking through internationally with his Vengeance trilogy.

 

[thesandman]

I saw the devil is RAW and so is the chaser...however the movies you listed do not and I repeat DO NOT have the layers that the OG Old Boy has...

Folks would call u nuts If they have seen spring, summer etc

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Can we have the opinion of someone who never saw the original because that can cloud friends judgement.

 

[Master Teacher]

never even heard of this, whats the shyt suppose to be out I might see it

 

[GMOGMediaTV]

I was extremely negative about the re-make of Oldboy during its inception. Now I have turned a new leaf and will give it a shot this weekend.
