The fight sequences looked phony, and the plot was a mess. The acting annoyed me and the gross-out moments were completely gratuitous.

An internet and teenaged phenomenon, but I'd never let hype keep me from admitting that this is a pretty great movie, and a perfect middle film in a trilogy that got even better.

I guess some people would find the twist pretty offensive, but that's the only negative thing I can say about Oldboy.

Great original plot, nice action, but they didn't overdo it. Have you also seen 'the eye' (original asian version, not the 2008 one)?

Quite a powerful movie, based on revenge. It can make you laugh, cry and cringe a few minutes apart from each other. The acting, cinematography and writing are all very well done. Woo-Jin is one of the smartest movie characters I've ever seen, and the way he controls Dae-su is just awesome. Dae-su himself is pretty great to, in the fact that he can make all the necessary connections to find out who imprisoned him and why. The end of the film makes you think, but doesn't leave too many questions.
