I want you to fucking hang yourself.

I just watched this shit the other night because I've heard so many people hype it up and all the internet reviews were really glowing.
After the one cool fight scene it just turned into a Korean high school drama with incest.
Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance is superior
I liked Hwal - The Boy by Kim Ki-Duk and I still have a copy of Samaritan Girl lying around that I didn't get to watch yet.
I'm a cyborg but that's ok was really good, too.
>>69955193
What the fuck was his problem?
Was the fact that Mi-do was Oh Dae Su's daughter supposed to be a big reveal near the end? I thought it was obvious from the beginning.
>>69956126
this
>>69956228
the whole idea was that the average audience member wasn't going to pay close attention to the "first time" they met in the sushi bar
Pic related, anything by Wong Kar-wai, Tokyo Story
Shitmido is chink warkino
Saw the fucking twist from a mile away, oldboy was predictable as fuck and the action parts were garbage. Fuck off cucks.
Chunking express is real asian Kíno
>asian
>kino
nice b8
Can anyone give a good reason why OP's pic related killed himself in that elevator? Someone asked me once and I came up with some bullshit about how his whole life was around the movie's plot and now he had nothing to live for.
It's a really weak and shoddy explanation, and I wonder if there's better out there.
>>69956228
>>69956306
Honestly, all Asian girls look alike to me, so I just gave the protag the benefit of knowing what his own offspring looked like. I defered to his judgment, so to speak.
mr vengeance was fucking great tho
was not expecting it to be that good, shit
every film i have seen from those new wave korean directors have been perfect
>>69957069
i guess there is not more to it that his sister was the love of his life and without her he couldn't live, but since he was korean he had to take vengeance before killing himself
idk
whats up with koreans and revenge??
>>69955193
I never thought I'd like a foreign coming of age movie about teenage girls as much as I like 'LOVE & POP.' Anno the meme-master has a cool way with montage.
>>69957069
What more reason do you need? The guy wanted to die ever since he lost his sister, fucking with Oh Desu or whatever his name is was just one last thing before kicking off.
breathless (2008)
>>69957281
anno's live action stuff is pretty fucking cool
>>69956991
chungking express goat
>>69957299
this is also really good
>>69957331
I think that people who work in animation tend to make really cool stuff when they switch to live-action. Drawing out every detail in every frame and controlling everything that your audience sees gives you a good feel for visuals.
Mamoru Oshii made some pretty cool live-action movies too.

the chaser
save the green planet
memories of murder
the mother
thirst

mr vengeance I really liked tho. same for mother and memories of murder. the chaser was also really great.
I saw the devil is a good first date movie
>>69957338
The music was annoying. Otherwise, not bad.
>>69957407
Wonderful movie.
>>69957474
Barking Dogs never Bite: Loved it. Very chill movie.
Man from Nowhere: Well-done action movie.
New World: good mob flick
Castaway on the Moon: Loved it.
>>69955193
True kino
>>69956126
Didn't have the same air of mystery that I liked about Old Boy, but I'd say they're pretty close.
>>69957473
I'll give you one if you only post live-action the rest of the thread.
>>69957638
This movie kind of disappointed me. Considering the premise and the outrageous outfit of the guy on the posters I was expecting something wild, off the wall, and colourful, but the movie I got was far more subdued. I appreciated the weird turns that the plot took but rather than punk-Brian De Palma like I wanted I got something more like an edgy and heartless Takeshi Kitano.
>>69956126
>>69957692
Can we agree that Mrs Vengeance was the worst?
I was going to list some but you started the thread with fucking Old Boy. Stick to Tarantino.
>>69957600
thanks a lot. will watch barking dogs now.
>>69957638
how is this? wanted to watch it when i was younger, my neighbor had it but said i wasn't mature enough to see it. im 22 now so time to watch it i guess
>>69957722
Absolutely, no questions asked.
Godawful pacing. Shitty execution.

Was Ong Bak the martial-arts masterpiece of its time? I think it worked so well on every level.
>>69955193
Why do people only post recent movies every time there's an asian kino thread ? It's kinda sad seeing shitty korean action flicks get so much attention.
>>69957858

>complaining about selections without providing your own
Why do people do this? Quality content can only exist when you create it.
>>69957750
some people hate it some people like just go in blind senpai
Why are Korean movies exclusively meme trash like Oldboy and Snowpiercer, while Japanese films are unique and actually good? I've yet to see an actually good Korean flick.
>Oldboy
>oh, I hypnotized you into fucking your daughter or something
fucking stupid
>>69957981
Korean culture is shit because they are an artificial state composed of rape-babies who only exist on the good-will of powers greater than they'll ever be and they're perpetually asshurt about how shit they are.
Or at least that's what the Japanese on /int/ tell me. Korean food is cool. Posting more Murakami.
>>69957981
I thought Oldboy was pretty good but yeah, some mediocre movies seem to get a pass simply because they're Korean. Films like The Chaser and The Man from Nowhere wouldn't get any praise if they weren't.
>>69957929
One of my favourites, any samurai movies on par with this (aside from Kurosawa's stuff) ? Haven't seen a lot.
>>69958098
It's my personal favourite Samurai movie. If you know of it and Kurosawa's stuff you problem know most of the best stuff. Have you seen Hara-Kiri?
>>69955193
>Based Mifune
>>69957732
Patrician kino. Too good for tv
Fallen Angels by Wong Kai Wai is my GOAT kino
Chungking Express somehow took me a really long time to understand but it's true kino
Mezon Do Himiko is rather unknown outside of Japan but really good.
Why has my HHH thread been deleted?
I just downloaded Shu Qi's porn pics and softcore scenes, pure kino
>>69957981
>>69958098
LMAO, the funny thing that nobody ever mention that oldboy is actually based a japanese manga
>>69957858

Delete this immediately before you trigger the weeb any further for liking things that he doesn't like.
If you like badass females, lots of gore & exploitation. Make sure to check out some old pinky violence movies.

Hard Boiled is great, but The Killer is John Woo's best movie and one of my all-time favorites.

There are no good Asian films, and any of them that even come close are just derivatives of the works of Western directors. This is a FACT.

Stray Dog is one of my favourite movies too. Kenji Kawai's score is amazing.
https://youtu.be/ETU90pDtHJE
the fags who like old boy are the ones who are posing in their pictures tipping their fedora and wielding their chinatown bought katana like they're some anime character. this movie is crap. better incest movie with more mystery is chinatown.
Can someone please convince me to watch Stray Dogs (2013)? I've had it sitting on my HDD for the longest time.

Pure kino. If you understood anything about film making, that is.
>>69959018
>Muh oberhyped
aside, 7 Samurai is probably one of the best films ever made, and few westerns films can touch it.
It's not the best, but its gotta be top 5.
Muh post WW2 Japanese depression man.
Is this typical Korean edgy shit or actually watchable kino?
>>69963925
it's edgy but also good
>>69964060
Why not? Surname is first (Sun, Yoo, Lee, Park, etc) and then their name. Often hyphenated. They are pretty simple.
>>69963023
Kenji has got to be one of my favorite composers ever, this film is one of the moodiest films i've seen thanks to the soundtrack and Oshii's boner for establishing shots
Its kino even though most fans are fedora edgelords that miss the point

Had more of the Chan Woo Park feel than Mr. Vengeance. I liked it more than Mr. Vengeance. Oldboy is still the best of the three.
>>69972063
>ITT: Anon only looks at the OP and then responds to the thread
I really liked this one. Can I get any recommendations for similar movies? I enjoyed the acting, the melancholic tone of it, Christopher Doyle's cinematography, and the fitting soundtrack. I saw one called Invisible Waves from the same director and it wasn't as good.
The Last Days of the World
>>69972833
The Vertical Ray of the Sun, Midnight Diner, Yi Yi, Tokyo Sonata, 3-Iron, Tampopo, Breathless, Chungking Express, 4:30.

another good film of his? I liked this one but thought Cold Fish and Tokyo Tribe were garbage
>>69976856
Yeah, that movie is great.
If anyone is wondering why so many Koean films are ultraviolent it's because their film industry has only relaxed their censorship laws in the past couple of decades.
