Oldboy… What the F was that? That was my main impression coming out of the cinema after having watched this film. This was sold to me as a cinematic masterpiece, one of the best psychological thrillers/revenge movies, yet I came out feeling quite disturbed. I usually love psychological thrillers and yes from all points cinema it was of excellent quality: the cinematography, the editing, the acting, the sets, … BUT my Gender Gaze found it incredibly problematic!
