I saw Oldboy.
Interesting, although I'm sure they could've thought of a better motivation for the imprisonment...If it were MY film, I'd make the lead character a former rapist or legbreaker that had been hypnotised to the point of not even recognising himself, and having THAT be the big ol' revealation with some kind of sleeper trigger at the end. But hey...as far as oldboy goes...it was all ok.
The plot WAS a little convoluted, they could've went into the background of the girl a little more without revealing "the thing", not to mention, the protagonist, and the friend...there was too minimal a background of any kind of all of these characters.
WEIRD movie.
Very nicely stylised, great score...I DO feel it was a little overrated though. Definately worth seeing at least once.
6/10
