Oldboy Ratings & Reviews
The Atlantic
David Sims
There's a core element of emotional realism that accentuates Park's brutal narrative beats, leaving us to ponder something more than a bloody body.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
Both brutal and lyrical, writer-director Park Chan-wook's existential nail-biter has torture scenes that will have you avoiding dentists, sushi bars and badly appointed hotel rooms.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Shakespearean in its violence, Oldboy also calls up nightmare images of spiritual and physical isolation that are worthy of Samuel Beckett or Dostoyevsky.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
There's a lot less here than meets the eye.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
It's hard to make an argument for Oldboy based on anything other than pure cinematics, but when the style speaks this loudly, it's an argument worth making.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Bob Townsend
A visually beguiling trip that keeps pulling you along and keeps you wondering what fresh hell could possibly come next.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
Its magnificence is that it takes itself dead serious. It's not entertainment, but it's sure a piece of toughness.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Argues for its own pointlessness.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
It's a hopelessly, helplessly original film.
Arizona Republic
Kerry Lengel
Combining the sinister suspense of Alfred Hitchcock with the unrepentant violence of Quentin Tarantino, South Korean director Park Chan-wook delivers a revenge tale as shocking as it is thought-provoking.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
The script reveals itself as an absurdly convoluted tale of betrayal and revenge.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
Deserves to be seen because of its relentless energy, the acting by Choi Min-sik that strikes a genuinely tragic note amid the mayhem and cartoonish excess, and the director's clear conviction that this wild story will resonate.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
For a while, though, this is as invigorating -- and as darkly funny -- as modern rogue moviemaking gets.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
A revenge film like none you have seen.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Exults in its own audaciousness, in its abandonment of convention and flaunting of unexpected intelligence.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
It is brutally epic.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Tantalizes and tortures you as it lures you into its mysterious vortex.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Director Park Chanwook forces us to feel Oh Dae-su's pent-up rage and obsession with revenge, making us complicit when he acts out.
Newsday
Jan Stuart
You will either feel mollified by the hysterically moral denouement or feel offended by the filmmaker's strategy of debasement, which reduces the audience to the mongrel-like prostration of its protagonist.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
It's a grand, gritty, indelible experience.
