What do you mean here? Although Quentin Tarantino did film one scene in the movie, it was directed and written by Robert Rodrigez and Frank Miller.

you should tell her never to watch either Old Boy or "Sympathy for Mr Vengeance" then!

I thought visually it was amazing, and I'd love to see it on the big screen, but probably would have enjoyed it more if I'd known that the three stories aren't really connected.
Hope to see a sequel, in fact I'd like it to be a franchise.


That doesnt matter "because its Korean" violence in Korean movies are tolerated and celebrated, in a western movie however, thats a different kettle of fish.
My director saw it and said it was very boring.

Maybe this answers my earlier query. Derrek works at an all-girls school.

I do have to agree with Billy the Idiot and the guy's director. That movie was an anesthetic.

I just saw it and thought it was incredible. The cinematography was excellent, and the characters were tough. I thought Mickey Rourke's character was badazz. Definitely seeing that one again. I think I'm going to have to get What the Book to order some copies of the graphic novel. Beautifully violent.

Its one of those movies where you walk away thinking 'What the *beep* did I just see here???' But when you look back on it there are so many things about it which make it one of those movies which people will talk about for a long time. Its like a movie, a video game and a dream all rolled into one.
