I think there’s so much more to Oldboy than just the ass kicking. I usually tell people at the store that it’s an amalgamation of the films of David Fincher. It’s got the disturbing qualities of Se7en, the amazing filmmaking of Fight Club, and all the twists and turns of The Game.

I think saying Oldboy is a “guy kicking ass movie” is like saying Fight Club is a movie about Fighting.

Juliet didn’t see Fight Club for years because she thought it was just about fighting.

So, I’m sorry you didn’t like Oldboy that much. Maybe you’ll try again at the festival. It looks like we’ll be showing some sort of premiere of Sympathy For Lady Vengeance, Chan-Wook Park’s next film. It doesn’t come out in NY/LA until the next week after the festival.
