Quick word on Sympathy for Lady Vengence From Kyoung

My friend from Korea, Kyoung finally managed to see the conclusion to Chan Wok Park's Vengeance trilogy. He didn't go into the plot specifics, but he did mention that the movie wasn't as good as Oldboy (but then again, what can be, right?), but cautioned that the movies couldn't easily be compared. Kyoung mentioned that the audience was polarized by the movie, either loving or hating the flick. Will this stop me from checking it out? Fuck no, man. Chan Wok Park is easily the world's most exciting director and he has yet to disapoint me with his movies.

Kyoung also saw Crying Fist which I also mentioned earlier as a movie that I wanted to see. He said that it was probably best boxing movie that he's ever seen, which is impressive considering his appetite for cinema.
