Title: Oldboy (2003) - Amazing movie!
Post by: Sikotic™ on October 30, 2010, 01:57:10 AM
One of the best I've seen in awhile. It's a Korean movie so you'll need to get it in subtitles. I wish an American studio would remake it kinda like what was done with The Departed. The ending of the movie leaves you speechless. There is this one bad ass fight scene in the movie too.

Get's the Sikotic seal of approval. I definitely recommend it.

Here's the fight scene for y'all to get your dick wet. This is easily the best thing Asians have ever created since sushi and happy endings at massage parlors in Koreatown:

Old Boy is the best of the three in my opinion but they're all worth watching.

BTW are they synchronizing any movies in the US? I think it's fucking ridiculous to do a remake of a good film like this one instead of just dubbing them.

 Been wanting to see all three of these movies for some time now, but for a while they were next to impossible to find around here.  I think they had been out of print, but I saw when I was at Best Buy the other day, that they just recently released the trilogy on bluray.  Will definitely have to check them out now.  I've had a couple different people tell me that "Oldboy" was one of the most fucked up movies they've ever seen.  That, of course, just made me want to see it more.

Rumors were a couple years ago that Steven Spielberg was suppose to remake Oldboy with Will Smith though (boo). I think plans have fallen through though.

The movie is great the way it is IMO. The filmmakers were able to tell this amazing story in less than 2 hours. Most movies now need 3 hours plus just to tell half as good of a story as the one told in Oldboy.
