This South Korean shocker takes unabashed glee in heaping abuses upon Oh Dae-Su, a troublemaking womanizer who is tossed into a one-room detention chamber and held there for 15 years.

Oldboy an Operatic Tale of Revengenew
Oldboy is explosive and crazed. But at moments, the film is also remarkably still and dead calm, suggesting the merry-go-round rhythms of a disturbing dream.

This 2003 revenger from Korean upstart Chan-wook Park is a multilayered, intensely performed, shockingly violent, and viscerally visual tour de force.
