After a (way) too long hiatus from discussing Korean cinema, we're back talking about the great Park Chan-wook and the first in the Vengeance Trilogy with 2002's Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. The tonal shifts in this movie are gracefully done, the performances otherworldly, and the message troubling; all what you come to expect watching a Park film. Is there really anything positive we can gleam from this absolutely bleak film? Grab your baseball bat & 10,000,000 won and tune in to find out. We'll cover every aspect of this movie, plus Dustin's shocking revelation about his blood type, Lily Gladstone's performance in Killers of the Flower Moon, some suggestions for other great Korean and Japanese films, and of course, more Tubi talk. By the way, we heard that this happened in Australia.
Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance stars Song Kang-ho, Shin Ha-kyun, and Bae Doona. Directed by Park Chan-wook.
