"Whoa, Whoa, HOLDUP: What was good about 'OLDBOY?' "


  

          



Just seentededed it again...first time sitting down
and seeing the whole thing in one sitting.


What a messy, panicky, amateurish piece of dogshit.


What was good about it?


Gimme an answer other than "Well the Japanese Manga was
really great"


Because it probably wasn't great at all. It was probably
dogshit like the movie was.


Spike Lee's is about to be 3000 time better than this,
nerds be damned.


What did y'all like about it, other than the fact that it
was an Asian film that made y'all feel artistic and cool?


Honest question.
