On one hand I was kind of disappointed, like the late Amish said it just feels like lots of stuff was deleted from some reason. But I had the director's cut and even then...then I thought maybe I just had too high expectations, because I looooved the director's previous films.

But then, on top of that, even though it kinda felt like an Oldboy rip off...I have to admit that the last scene was pretty damn great. And the ending was perfect.

Actually now I think I'm gonna check and see what Kim Ji-woon is doing now...
