Default Oldboy

A friend of mine recommended I see this film.

Its Korean and very violent from what i hear.

Anybody seen this?

Should I watch it?

Reason I ask is this person has recommended films in the past that i haven't liked, but he's gaureenteed me this is a winner.

It was interesting but disturbing. The first half is cool but I din't really like where they went with it. I'd say it's worth watching, but don't go in expecting a comedy.

It's absolutely brilliant. Yes, it's violent -- but what makes it work is the emotional current of the story and the visual pyrotechnics. It's easily my favorite movie of 2005.
