In order to feel the full impact of emotion Park was going for, you have to be with the film every step of the way. Min-sik Choi and Ji-tae Yu do a tremendous job at rounding out motivations as Dae-su and Woo-jin respectively. Being that it's a tragic story that turns into a revenge flick but then turns back into a tragic tale again, you need to believe both sides of the coin. Whether it be through an important close up on our lead character's face or even a well-timed artistic metaphor, the story is so well-realized through its characters. One of the main reasons the characters work so nicely, is that Park provides character development in more ways than one. All characters are brought around nicely by the time the credits roll, which contributes to the devastation of the film's emotional gut punch towards the end. The characters, who were apparently not developed enough in the comic, are well established within the first 20 minutes.
It rips your heart out in more ways than one.Ī revenge tale is only as good as the characters are written, and this film is brilliantly adapted from the 90's comic. But also easily one of the most devastating films you'll see.
