Oldboy
South Korean writer-director Park Chan-wook's violent thriller was one of the finest films of 2003. This sparkling 4K restoration of Oldboy screens in selected cinemas and continues to smacks gobs with its bravura flourishes of on-screen carnage which give new meaning to the phrase "It's hammer time". Oh (Choi Min-sik) is kidnapped on the way home to his wife and child. He is subsequently incarcerated for 15 years, for a crime he did not commit. Upon his release, Oh is hell-bent on revenge but fate has some nasty surprises up its sleeve for him and his loved ones. As Lady Luck deserts him in his hour of need, Oh lashes out with increasing ferocity, leaving a trail of bludgeoned bodies in his wake.
