The Vengeance Trilogy

The title refers to three films by the South Korean director Chan-wook Park. As I have written before, Oldboy is one of my all-time favorite films, and I was not even aware that it was the second part of a trilogy. Well, now I've seen both the first and the third parts, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance respectively. And wow! What movies! They are not as... interesting as Oldboy, but every bit as dark and unique. My advice to everyone out there is to see these films. Watch them in order, but not in a row. Watch each one two or three times and allow at least a week before going on to the next movie. But watch them! Even if the choice was between the Trois Couleurs and these, watch these. You'll be more entertained!
