Oldboy Ratings & Reviews
- abvddy5November 5, 2025dirtiest vengeance
- FridoOctober 14, 2025Absolutely excellent movie.
- abxdyySeptember 26, 2025craziest theme of vengeance I've seen ( yet ) 🥀
- cferacoSeptember 22, 2025Oldboy is brutal and stylish, and it ends with a reveal so disturbing you’ll need both a shower and therapy — more shocking than Dirk Diggler’s big reveal before the end credits of Boogie Nights.
- Zane ThindMay 5, 2025À literal masterpiece
- kenngineerJuly 21, 2025let me preface it by saying this is still one of the best asian film masterpieces for me. this is a beautiful twisted movie and i did not expect the plot twist. such a beautifully written story and casting Choi Min-sik is perfect for the Oh Dae-su character. I have had a roller coaster of emotions through this film and i regret putting out this film for a long time. I should have watched this decades ago. loved it.
- Kevin WardJuly 6, 2025This has been roaming around my watchlist forever, but after watching Decision to Leave, I finally decided to make this one a priority. Damn! What a chilling and tragic finale….and absolutely masterful. Truly an unforgettable ending. Lots to unpack and I’m sure that this has plenty of revelations in store upon rewatch. Highly recommend if you’ve not seen it.

- sopulaMay 29, 2025Very intense
- MichaelMarch 15, 2025Very well put together film. Great story but not for everyone mind you.... the story gets very very dark. Edge of your seat stuff with some amazing set pieces. Class editing and really great transitions. Well worth the watch ! 4/5
- Nerd flixOctober 15, 2024best ever
- Daniel GustavssonOctober 12, 2024I personally feel like this movie is a bit overrated. The acting can be somewhat spotty (especially the ending) and so can some of the action sequences. The famous hallway scene for example, while impressive, is far from perfect. The premise is great however and the movie does indeed execute this pretty well.
