Not for the faint of heart! 

OldBoy is a trippy movie!1 Some good fighting, warped plot, good acting, and a different backdrop.
Its a Korean flick. Rent it!

Has anyone else here seen it?

excellent movie

One that impressed me with it story line more than many I've seen for quite a while. Has a very Shakespearian feel to it combined with the Count of Monte Christo. All around, I recommend it highly both to the action movie loving crowd, but also to those fans of Kurosawa and other great oriental film makers.

From what I have seen over the past year or so... South Korean cinema is definitely superior to much of what has come from Japan lately. The current Japanese stuff concentrates too much on extreme fetishism and bodily functions. It's basically borderline flowers anymore. The Korean stuff is much better.

If you liked OldBoy then check out Sympathy for Lady Vengence.
