Where the lost ones go.
Masterpiece in everyway
The movie, that brought me to Korean world.
I came to know about Oldboy when I watched unofficial remake or similar film, "Zinda lit: Alive" (2006) and found out that film had uncanny resemblance and plot elements similar to Korean film, which itself is an adaption of Japanese manga of same name.
Ebert summed the film that, "we are so accustomed to 'thrillers' that exist only as machines for creating diversion that it's a shock to find a movie in which the action, however violent, makes a statement and has a purpose".
The captor and his prisoner, went through gravest pains for their mistakes. Avenging for the most dearest sole he lost at the hand of his prisoner, the captor took revenge in the most jaw dropping cliffhanger of all time. The film depicts the gruesome revelation of truths, oppressions and pain.
Sadly, it also shows, human above all - are the most cruel living beings on planet earth.
IT IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST REVENGE FILM OF ALL TIME.
