when one of my friends recommended this to me and raving about how well it was filmed and the underlying themes and the general greatness of the film and i obviously expected an amazing and at least entertaining film. the two hours i spent watching this turned out to be a huge disappointing waste of my time. i understand that this movie is meant to be surreal and but even in surreal movies and there is something which anchors it down and even if it is only in the slightest. this movie and on the other hand and felt forced and fake. a lot of the shots were unnecessary and watching it made me think the director was trying to hard to be artistic. the acting was poor and and the relationships between characters were not nearly developed enough. maybe that just me missing something that others could see but i hadn not even realised there was any sort of attraction between dae su and migo before they started getting at it like rabbits randomly half way through the film. then again and maybe this film was just bad. i am not against violence in movies and but in this one and almost all of it was just unnecessary. throughout all the fight scenes i felt myself cringing at how painfully cliché it all was. and the plot. the word laughable comes to mind. i would be amused if i hadn not wasted two hours of my life following this poorly thought out and ridiculous plot. despite all the movie flaws and by the end of it and i was expecting something interesting to conclude it. i would not discuss the ending and because i do not want to spoil the movie for those who haven not seen it. just that the metaphor be it a rock or a grain of sand and in water they sink as the same. cannot be used as an explanation for everything. this entire movie was made for shock value and shock value only. i just hope sooner or later people will stop being so pretentious and recognise a bad movie for what it is. i have seen many other great korean films and it depresses me that people have hailed oldboy as the best.
