There's no shortage of Korean revenge-thrillers, but this, along with the recent The Man from Nowhere, proves there is plenty of life left in the genre. April 28, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

There is no denying that Kim Jee-woon is a phenomenal director, wrenching visceral thrills, dark humour and even occasionally an element of surprise, from all his stock set-pieces. April 27, 2011

A terrific but uncompromising film that's definitely not for everyone. It's not just that the violence is graphic, but that much of it is so mean-spirited. March 25, 2011 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

I Saw The Devil is the poster film for the phrase "not for the faint of heart." This movie takes viewers to places many will not want to go. But once taking us there, it builds an intellectually honest case that vengeance is really not for us. April 2, 2020 | Full Review…
