Hee Seop Choi and the Korean 3

I recently recieved my DVD copy of Oldboy in the mail, rounding out my collection of Chan-wook Park's Oh-so-brilliant revenge trilogy (Yes, I know it's the second of the three, with the other two being Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance(the first) and Lady Vengeance). If you haven't seen these movies, run out today, right now, and buy them all. Forget renting them. You'll want to gouge your eyes out, jump in front of a train, and then drown yourself as quickly as possible, but in the best possible sense. For the basic rundown of these movies, imagine the worst thing possible happening to you, multiply by 10, and then imagine the revenge you would seek out. Yes. I know it's an awesome idea. I only wish I came up with it myself.

Great description of what makes these films great - although I have Lady Vengeance at home from Netflix at the moment - I need to hop to!
