Riveting, brilliantly executed thriller packs enough delicious and disturbing plotting into its first half to satisfy a whole film, before moving carefully and deliberately into a gut wrenching portrait of "vengeance" (via a character/focus shift of which Hitchcock would be proud). Contrasting the insidious snowballing of one characters misfortune with the eventually callously, deliberate acts of the "wronged" party makes for an invigorating (if troubling) experience.

I turned this on with no idea what I was in for, ready to turn it off at multiple places but something kept me with it. It wasn't until maybe three quarters in that I realized how much this repellent yet fascinating movie had gotten in my head.

Although the unpleasant imagery this film lives off is too often self-serving, it doesn’t spoil the positives that drive the intriguing drama between the main characters.

The film feels too smitten with its own cleverness both narratively and technically. Despite the overly contrived structure, it does have several moments and images that stick. Many of these flaws are addressed in the sequels.

Amazing film about the cycle of violence and, as the title says revenge. After a certain point it just never lets up and becomes.difficult as hell to watch. Definitely glad I saw it though.

Park Chan-wook knows how to frame a long still shot, goddamn. Preferred the first half over the gory second half myself but I suppose I'd better get used to it for the next two in the trilogy. Song Kang-ho is goat as always

Once again (as with Old Boy), not my kind of story, but every scene is visually exciting and fresh. Sort of like an Asian Tarantino...
