- remiiMarch 2, 2026The cinematography is off the chart and PCW deserves all the credits for it. To the point that the storyline does not even matter towaards the end as it becomes twisted.
- hamedtahaSeptember 14, 2025it is good , but not a masterpiece
- Michael O'BrienOctober 9, 2025A true masterpiece
- Kevin WardJuly 6, 2025A stunningly beautiful neo-noir from Park Chan-wook that follows Hae-jun (Park Hae-il) a detective that becomes infatuated with Seo-rae (Tang Wei) the prime suspect his murder investigation and widow to the victim. Tang Wei is perfection as mysterious femme fatale and Hae-jun’s constant eye-dropping suggest that he isn’t necessarily seeing everything clearly. Twists and turns and a not so great subtitle track made this a challenging watch at times. Actually had to rewatch a few parts to make sense of everything. Even considering that, it’s a captivating watch with an ending that left me rather heartbroken.
- RickJuly 5, 2025One of the most visually pleasing movies I’ve seen in a while. The characters were great, the rug pulls were satisfying, and the last act was fantastic. Chan-wook is one of the best there is.
- cultfilmlikerJune 23, 2025This film has metaphorically got me fucked up!! Park Chan-wook films have such a singular beauty to them, ugh. The transitions are always so unique, vibrant, and seamless - it’s truly stunning. Love how integral they are in his works. Film school nerd shit esp wrt visual metaphors Interview scene with mirror reflections is always a fun little treat
