its only now that i realized that this movie had few music in it. really did not make it any harder to watch or anything tho. its pretty much perfect as it is.
music in movies is used to help create atmosphere. overuse of music may indicate and also cover up an actually bad movie.
in this case tho the lack of music shows how great the movie really is. and really, the scenes of sympathy for mr vengeance don't need to be made more intense by music.
this review really underrates the movie. It had a much sensible, better set up compared to the 'old boy', and was thereby much more enjoyable to watch. i cannot agree with 7/10 for this movie.
@ZarathustrasCrown I watched the subtitle first then dubbed, the dub was not that bad but a few parts are odd like the swearing and when she says he talks funny.
@TheMegaNerd Dude you said the guy could hear, he was just a mute, then you said he couldnt hear the girls screams cause he was deaf. Make up your mind!
no this movie is a 10 out of 10 ... !! freaking awesome made me so laugh when the retard guy at the lake came into the picture, that took me by suprise :D freaking funny tosing stone in teh water
i love oldboy love it......sympathy is the shit....after a battle within.......Sympathy is the better film to me....old boy is a great artsy type of film...but I think Sympathy is a great Drama/Action/Comedy piece and should be viewed by every old boy fan..........Lady Vengeance....Not so much.
@TheMegaNerd I honestly found Lady Vengeance to be the most straightforward of the batch. I love it, don't get me wrong, but the antagonist is VILE, he's the most reprehensible scum I can think of so vengeance on him seems almost justified. In this movie there's no extremes, the main characters are just people trying to do what they need to do...there IS no real antagonist and the moral choice is tough as hell to pin down...it becomes about the lesser of two evils more than anything
Awesome xD I completely agree with you 100% on this movie. Great review! Haha that made me happy xD I really like how you go in-depth and analyze the whole story :D Speechless (claps) You need to make movie reviewing your profession! xD Again, I really do appreciate the time you spent making this review. Thank you for that. You're awesome!
Uh, and can't wait for the lady vengeance and especially the battle royale review!!!! :D
i've seen this movie 5 times! good review though.

really cause i actually like lady vengeance quite a bit more due to the moral choice it presents you with.
