They make the best crime thrillers nowadays.

>>68222707

I think it's interesting how much they fixate on the "bloody vengeance" thing, given the history of the country. For the last 20 years or so, I think they've got the best cinema of any Asian nation, from an American perspective anyway

didn't know about this movie, thanks.
Have any other recs?

Notice how the movies people always post in these threads are always from like ten years ago. They do nothing noteworthy anymore.

I think it's great. I Saw The Devil is one of my favorite revenge films to watch and to show to other people.

I Saw the Devil is my least favorite from that director, to be honest. I can understand why people like it, but something prevents me.
>>
Was a highlight of cinema in the 00's and early 10's, getting a bit stale now though
>>
I liked the Admiral
I just noticed I mostly watch korean romantic comedies

Best Korean film coming through

>>68223848
But it's true to an extent. The last couple great Korean movies from the last two years were probably A Bad Day and The General. All the best stuff were from 2012 and before.

I liked this movie.

Is the reimagining of TGTBATU by the gooks good?
>>
>>68226960
I really enjoyed it when I was 15 but I don't think I'd like it much now. Depends on how much you like zany anime-esque action
>>
Korean cinema peaked in the last decade.

Too bad they love their shitty romantic comedies these days.
>>
Watch The Chaser if you want more korkino

>>68223409
Any recent ones that are torrent available? I think I have burned through all of the good ones.

koreans stopped making movies couple of years ago

New World is from 2013. It's a bit slow and talky (for a modern Korean movie, atleast), but got based Min-Sik Choi, a fucking incredibly parking complex fight and is pretty dark and poetic. I liked it.

There's also the The Shameless (2015), which is reeeeeaaally slow and talky, but it's pretty cute and nice, definitely one of the better lvoe stories I've seen the few recent years,
>>
>>68228558
are you only looking for crime thrillers? if not

>Veteran(2015); an action comedy about a detective who is after a crackhead rich brat.
>Assassination(2015); a period drama set in Korea under Japanese rule.

both were pretty cool.
>>
Speaking of gook movies, I strongly recommend pic related.
>>
Memories of Murder and The Chaser are the only good Korean thrillers of the 2000's. When people recommend shit like I Saw the Devil you know they're struggling.
>>
American cinema is superior.
