I got this on deck, need time to watch it.

On a side note, Bong Joon-ho the director of this movie is a talented cat. "Memories of Murder" and "The Host" was both great, check those out.

did you like it?...i was disappointed expected much more considering his earlier work..

Just saw the movie and I thought it was great. It has a very unique vibe which mixes the off-beat humorous social satire of European comics (the source material) with the dark, cynical human nature of Korean film making. An open mind is required to fully appreciate it and I can see why it made Harvey Weinstein scissor-happy, because a lot of people won't swallow what the movie has to offer. Those people can go fukk themselves though for as much as I care because the direction by Bong Joon-ho is unwithfukkable. The first hour and a half or so moves at a rapid pace with intense action set pieces that hit hard without overly relying on violence and gore to sell them. The last half hour is a bit talky, perhaps too much even, but the 90 minutes before it are filled with details that only become relevant then, so all the pieces need to be put together properly and I can't really imagine how they could've done it differently.

Now I wouldn't say it's on par with Bong's Korean work, which I hold in very high regard, but of the big three's foreign excursions (Park Chan-wook's Stoker, Kim Jee-woon's The Last Stand and this) it's the best entry by far, and hopefully helps get Bong the credit I feel has been kept from him in comparison to the other two.

Probably because it leaked like three months ago and most of us already seen it, lol.

Also it's a limited release. I gotta see this shyt on a big screen, I'm too big a fan of everyone involved.

The premise was great. But halfway thru it turned into a shoot em up. That kind of turned me off. But then the ending got a bit better. Im conflicted brehs
