Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (2005)

Chan-Wook Park has officially now become my favourite Director! this is movie is brilliant! (I'm a huge fan of 'Oldboy' and 'Sympathy for Mr Vengence' but this movie selaed the deal). It was quite hard to keep track of what's going on at some points, especially while reading the subtitles, some Subtlety's of the story can be missed quite easily, which is why I think some of the other reviews are so bad (this was my second watch and it made all the difference). This is not a movie to watch while chilled out on the couch, I watched it on my computer alone with Headphones on, you really need to stay on the ball but at the end it's all worth it! This was a really rewarding watch.

Innovative directing style. Slower and slightly odder than the previous 2 films in the trilogy but still raised some really interesting themes. Parts of the film were deeply upsetting, specifically towards the end. I'm still not sure what to make of Geum-ja but I liked her.

Rubbish! Fast forwarded through the whole thing and even that was a waste of time.

Not for the faint hearted!!

Good drama exploring human's emotions faced with many atrocities in life. Though not as fresh as "Old Boy" in terms of storyline but this third installment of Vengeance theme movies from the director Park Chan-Wook is still a good crime-action drama exploring dark sides of human emotions.

While this movie is not as good as the second in the filmmakers Revenge Trilogy "Oldboy", this is a beautiful, gripping and very satisfying movie.
