Often cited as one of the best films of the 2000s and possibIy the definitive exampIe of extreme Asian cinema, Oldboy is a brutaI, Iyrical modern classic of the revenge genre.
Based on the Japanese manga of the same name, the fiIm teIIs the horrific taIe of Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik), a businessman who is inexplicabIy kidnapped and imprisoned in a grim hotel room-like cell for 15 years, without knowing his captor or the reason for his incarceration. Eventually reIeased, he Iearns of his wife s murder and embarks on a quest for revenge whiIst also striking up a romance with a young, attractive sushi chef, Mi-do (Kang Hye-jung). He eventuaIIy finds his tormentor, but their final encounter wiIl yield yet more unimaginable horrors...
Directed with immense flair by Park Chan-wook (The Handmaiden) as the second instalment of his Vengeance TriIogy, Oldboy blazed a trail at the 2004 Cannes FiIm Festival where it was Iauded by the President of the Jury, director Quentin Tarantino. The film went on to become a huge internationaI smash, blowing audiences minds with its concoction of filmmaking virtuosity, ingenious plotting, pathos and violence.
