I Saw the Devil Ratings & Reviews
- JohnAugust 19, 2025The most PERFECT horror revenge thriller ever made! The disturbingly graphic imagery is balanced by such beautiful cinematography and immense heartbreak that takes you on an intense action packed psychological rollercoaster of emotions all the way to its incredibly satisfying conclusion. Has probably the most vile villain ever to take the screen! Min-sik’s character is so especially frightening because it feels like someone like him could really be out there.
- aaravsingh19August 22, 20254 stars, especially for that head-finding scene in the beginning; could've given 5 but the army truck scene came out of the blue, felt unnecessary and was left unresolved and the character played by Kim In-seo wasn't a well written one, had vague intentions
- roberts6178August 17, 2025A relentlessly brutal masterpiece. A must watch for any cinephile.

- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Been meaning to cross this off the Shame List for a while. F🤩kin loves this. Stylish and moody revenge thriller. Absolutely loved some of the shots. The 360 taxi fight scene….😱 holy sh🤩 such an incredible sequence. Absolutely killer ending too.
- HakihikoJune 20, 2025Gripping, Gruesome, and Unforgettable "I Saw the Devil" is a relentless and emotionally charged thriller that flips the revenge genre on its head. It's a beautifully shot and chillingly crafted film that pushes boundaries without losing narrative control. The direction by Kim Jee-woon is sharp and confident, and the performances-especially from Choi Min-sik and Lee Byung-hun-are absolutely gripping. What makes this film stand out is its balance between brutal action and emotional weight. The tension never lets up, and while the violence is graphic, it serves the story and the psychological spiral the characters go through. It's disturbing, yes-but never aimless. That said, it's not an easy watch for the intensity can be overwhelming. But if you're ready for a dark, expertly crafted thriller that dives deep into the cost of vengeance, this one absolutely delivers. A visceral, smart, and unflinching descent into revenge-fueled madness.
