so my cat likes to lay on the head rest of my chair while i play video games or watch movies and right as the credits rolled during i saw the devil he puked 5 inches away from my head. that is how deeply unsettling this movie is. i almost quit on it half an hour in because, while i can appreciate how expertly crafted it was, it still felt like the type of horror movie that was almost too realistic and graphic to even watch--and emotionally it really hit you like a ton of bricks. after the first act it kind of loosened up on the horror and dived deep into being the thriller revenge film that... read

things i didn't do because i couldn't stop watching i saw the devil: - prepare breakfast - eat breakfast - have morning coffee - walk the dog - have a smoke - clean my room - go to the bathroom - feed the cats - sleep - look away from the television - pick up my phone no regrets whatsoever. actually, i might watch it again even though i've been wanting to go to the bathroom for over 90 minutes now. read

i find revenge films inefficient, unreasonable, and irksome, but this one was funny and the direction was also good, thus, this deserves the 3-star credit. another funny thing, i was eating up until the scene where he's trying to find something in his poop. i was so invested in the film that i just kept on eating and watching not realizing that that scene was supposedly disgusting. read

when you're in the most pain, shivering out of fear, then i will kill you i saw the devil breathes and thrives in a way that few films do, but only in a way that cinema can. viscerally thrilling and gut wrenching visually, this film feels vital and alive. even within the south korean revenge films, this film choruses with a tremendous amount of energy, in ways that not many other films of this genre do. perhaps it is due to the tremendously good work by many of the principle artists associated with this picture. kim jee-woon is on top of his game here. every shot is carefully plotted out... read

Solid thriller. It's pretty bleak and the violence is more graphic/brutal than your average thriller or action movie, but nowhere near as extreme as some people make it out to be. This is no Saw or Hostel. There were a few uncomfortable scenes throughout but nothing that particularly bothered me. Recommended. read moreWas this review helpful to you?

Certainly not boring, lots of action... actually its more of an action movie than a thriller. The police seems totally useless, psycho killers can roam the streets freely and apparently everyone in this movie is totally fine after getting beaten by a metal pole to the head mutliple times lol.. The characters are great though, so is the acting. Somehow this movie managed to gain a lot of international acclaim, but there are way better Korean movies that are less famous. Warning! Spoiler below ::::: So disappointed by the ending. He... read more Was this review helpful to you?

hahaha. oh man, this is just straight up revenge porn. dumb, mean, and has all the subtlety (none) and a level of cartoon violence that, coupled with the lack of brevity in korean cinema, basically turns this into a marathon session of itchy & scratchy, which also puts this firmly in my wheelhouse. entertaining for sure, but extremely questionable plotting and morals so be warned. read

30 day movie challenge Чет какой-то странный микс gore,треш и размышление про месть. При чем странно, но каждый из этих жанров выполнен достаточно круто, но почему-то как единое целое они вместе просто не работают. Получается или слишком трешово и вульгарно в тех моментах где пытаются в драму и СОСМЫСЛОМ, или же весь этот СМЫСЛ резко обрывает крутые треш сцены с драками и кровяной. Ну а че, корейский фильм всё-таки, где ещё пытаться смешивать то, что не смешивается.... read

52 years in 52 weeks 2010 hooptober 5 #30 horror x52 2018 made in asia watched on optimum blu-ray. so fucking good! i was so pleasantly surprised to see choi min-sik in an antagonist role after loving oldboy so much. he's so awesome, and he's great as the evil jang kyung-chul. cinematography is top notch as well. if there was anything i don't like, it's that like, well a lot of korean movies i've seen, it's a little too long. but the pacing is quite good, so the runtime isn't the biggest deal. read

o início já é impactante. um dia da caça e outro do caçador? da raiva não só do vilão, com essa ideia idiota de vingança. por que já não fez isso desde o início e já torturava até o última parte do corpo?! read

film 13 of obligatory october of horror this film has been with me for over a quarter of my life. it's been on my watchlist for six years. i think back when i put it on my watchlist, two whole site migrations ago, i would have enjoyed this for its gore and torture aspects. these days i find myself much more inclined to look away during those scenes. to enjoy this as a thriller instead of anything else. i wouldn't even really call this a horror film to be honest. sure, it's horrifying to see people doing horrible things to each other but that's not really what horror means to me. that's not to... read

der film schrammt für mich knapp an der höchstwertung vorbei und das nur aus einem grund: für mich muss ein 5/5 sterne film einer sein, den ich gerne immer wieder schauen mag. i saw the devil ist zwar visuell großartig, extrem gut gespielt und insgesamt ein geiles erlebnis, ist aber in teilen so unfassbar brutal (die kamera hält immer drauf), dass ich den film auf jeden fall in nächster zeit erstmal nicht mehr sehen will. read

Wow, what an intense movie experience this was. This is reminiscent of Seven from a few years back. It is extremely brutal at times even to the point of being quite realistic. Both main actors were exceptional in their roles and having seen Min-Sik Choi in nicer roles he was very convincing as a psycho. Its not easy watching it and its quite long but I would highly recommend it. read
