Film #15: Oldboy (2003)

After being kidnapped and imprisoned for fifteen years, Oh Dae-Su is released, only to find that he must track down his captor in five days.

My thoughts: Another one of my very favorite movies.  One of filmdom’s most shocking final twists.

Film #16: Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (2005)

After being wrongfully imprisoned for thirteen years and having her child taken away from her, a woman seeks revenge through increasingly brutal means.

My thoughts: The narrative feels a little diffuse and the end result feels decidedly lesser than its predecessors.
