MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
duridodo The plot is ridiculously long, violence for the sake of violence, no drive or reason, i felt exhausted after watching it. But the most bothersome thing was that with such a good rating, it's nothing more than another movie about a man preying on young girls. Moderation is good, the only aspect of the movie I would attribute it to was the acting. The plot is unrealistic even for a glorified slasher. If you want entertainment ...skip this movie.
Michael Speiser If you're watching this movie, chances are you're looking for something different than the usual Western drama/thriller flick. The good news is that you've certifiably found something different. The bad news is that not everyone is going to like this movie. Most reviews of "I Saw the Devil" talk about its ultraviolence, and I'll talk about it for a bit too, because it's important to this movie. As much as people like to complain about the violence or gore that this movie shows, they prove the reasoning behind it. This movie has borderline absurd scenes that make you more uncomfortable than you thought was possible from watching a movie, and that's the best thing about it. "I saw the Devil" will give you an experience you just can't get from any Western thriller movie, which is why I love it.This is certainly not a date movie, not a movie to watch with your parents, maybe not even anyone you aren't totally comfortable with. There's a lot of really, really strange and uncomfortable things that happen. And that's why some people just won't like this movie. Which is fine, some people don't like the feeling of a strong thriller movie. But if you're a thriller fan, and are looking for a wild ride of a movie, this is it.
Osmosis Iron It's shocking, bloody, brutal and more than a little crazy. It's also brilliant! Know that old Klingon proverb? Well this one is freezing, an ultimate revenge flick!
Miguel Neto I Saw the Devil proved to me that Korean cinema is amazing, Oldboy is one of my favorite movies and it's the movie that made me watch more and more Korean cinema, and in these last years I've seen a lot of Korean movies, and until recently I vi I Saw the Devil a sensational film, a very different revenge film, is very violent and shocking and has exciting moments as well, a good soundtrack and a great direction, with a good script, the cast is very good, but the highlight It's amazing Min-Sik Choi (who is the protagonist of Oldboy) that this sensational, one of my favorite actors no doubt, the protagonist of I Saw the Devil is very well acted by Byung-Hun Lee, but the character made some choices which makes us angry at him, who watch will understand, and the film could take 10 minutes less, has some unnecessary scenes. Note 9.7
