I have fought tooth and nail with copyright bots, with up to SIX DIFFERENT VERSIONS of this video. Each one is flagged for copyright, claimed, and blocked in South Korea.
Nothing fucking works.
So fuck it, here's the unedited version. I'm done fighting. Fuck TH-cam.
We should have nuked the dinks in the Korean War
Worst Korea
That's some bullshit. Unlucky bro.
That's the way to do it. The way of the cyber renegade!!! 😎
so what if it's blocked in south korea..it's only half an peninsula.
"If Hannibal Lecter killed a relative of Anton Chigurh."
That sounds like raw, mainlined kino.
What is kino?
@@TheButterlord The good shit
@@TheButterlord kino translates to film/cinema
It was also one of the best late Soviet bands to ever exist
In internet jargon it means “good stuff”
Kino also is the term from a gum extract from trees.
That "Fuck You" vocal effect never gets old but I legit laughed my ass off at the fire extinguisher
Fun fact: Some Indian filmmakers asked the movie’s director Kim Jee-Woon for permission to make an adaptation of I Saw the Devil, to which Kim promptly denied.
Bollywood made the adaptation anyway and turned it into a crappy action/romance movie lol
How can you even make a softer version of this?
Sounds like Bollywood.
Of course they did😂
As an Indian, I hate bollywood as makes the worst movies ever made in the history of cinema
@@theunbearablejuan oooooh very simple, just remove everything that makes it special and just put your perspective into it!
Screw india, everything sucks here
That last scene where the main character accomplishes his goal and everything he did hits him at once is pretty powerfull. It is the thing i remember the most about "I saw the devil". I think the best korean movie of this genre is "Memories of murder" in case somebody wants to check another similar movie..
I may add the other vengeance movies besides OLDBOY: Sympathy for mr.vingance and lady vengeance . all deal with revenge in a brutal way
Saw you mention this movie during one of your streams. Fucking love this movie. It handles the message of revenge in a fresh way I haven’t seen before. Instead of trying to make the villain likable to get the audience to see how bad revenge is, it has the protagonist torture but constantly let go the killer to torture him later. Showing that revenge is bad because it blinds us to real justice through anger. There is no justice until evil is purged. Perfect movie.
See that's why I like the Punisher. He doesn't descend into hell and become a demon so that he can be a demon hunter, he just puts demons in the ground and moves on to the next one.
@@xokelis0015 He tortures people all the time, very well. It's hilarious how much more effective 'enhanced interrogation' is when someone's actively losing fingers or toes.
@@xokelis0015 cough jigsaw cough. I think red hood is the best one, he kills the ones that absolutely deserves it and let's the other thugs live for a second time
It is not a "revenge bad" plot, it is a "stop messing around and just kill him already" plot. Seriously, how many times did we saw villains not kill the protagonist, instead they lock him up in the most escapable run on Earth?
*did we see
"Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?" ~Vaas Montenegro from Far Cry 3
It’s more so about how some people aren’t afraid of death or torture. In the end, when you think there is a breakthrough with the crazy guy you realize that’s it all just amusing to him. That’s the profound moment of the film for me.
To me the most cathartic part of the film isn't the death of the serial killer, but when the agent breaks down afterwards. I feel as though his mixed emotions after all is said and done I feel a mixture of empathy while still feeling saddened yet at the same time sort of relieved. What's important to remember is that this was never about justice, but one man of a much higher caliber on the subject of inflicting pain and torture carrying out bitter, hate-filled vengeance on one who has wronged him.
It isn't justice for the deaths of all of the victims, but for the agent and his personal loss and stake in these transpired events. It was always about him and what he lost, so it's not a heroic deed. It's because of why what transpires occurs that makes me appreciate that the agent's ending is so bitter-sweet with emphasis on the bitter.
As he cries and laughs simultaneously, it illustrates just how morally grey everything has been and in a way we as an audience can join in his grief mixed with a letting go of all emotions he is feeling, both the relief and the heartache. Being able to see the agent have that bitter-sweet release of various and tumultuous emotions is as much a comfort and sharp pain at the same time to us as it is to him.
I don't know what it is with Korea and revenge stories, but they put out nothing but bangers consistently. You've probably already seen it, but Lady Vengeance is another movie that has truly sadistic concepts.
This movie isn't recent
Asian culture in general has a really good grasp of how vengeance truly works. They neither glorify it or vilify it, they just show it how it is, someone getting fucked and wanting to fuck those who wronged him.
The last scene is the best. Special effects I have seen in a long time. As a father and a loving husband. I fear that if the same thing happens to my family, I would be doing the same thing.
If you haven't already accepted it's 'okay' to enjoy it, I don't know what to tell ya. People really aren't worth as much as we were taught as kids. Especially certain people.
God damn. I saw this on a random Amazon recommendation. And holy hell, I wasn't disappointed with this film. I absolutely love it! Especially with the satisfying ending
was it? satisfying? watch it again
I want to write a scene where a character refuses to kill a revolutionary for an ideology similar so the revolutionary does not become a martyr, instead exposing the revolutionaries hypocrisy destroying everything the revolutionary worked along with the revolutionary rotting in jail until he dies of old age.
Isn't that Black Ops 2?
@@crazyinsane500 I never played any call of duty or watched any playthroughs so that was a happy coincidence
Have you played Disco Elysium? Sounds right up your alley.
Not interesting at all, and it sounds like a reassertion of a police state that punishes thought crime.
Politicking is so fun
A monster meets an even worse monster.
It’s rare but worth.

🐍 no step on snek! 🇺🇸🇭🇰
One of the best beheading scenes in motion picture history.
I like how it's not just another revenge bad m'kay and adds a twist I've always wanted to see (that being the killer has no power) great vid
Choi Min-Sik's protest to the screen quota reduction was an act of loyalty to his nation and people. He wants to resist the pushing out of films made in, by, and for Koreans by the bland, Marxist foreign product cinema we're currently drowning in.
It convinces me he's probably a decent man as well as a fine actor. What decent man would want to see his country sold to the international financial elite any more than it already has been? We all know what that's like.
Serial killers are not a thing anymore Just at the world has moved on nowadays are just terrorism gang wars drug trafficking Hacking.
Oy vey! Shut this comment down! 👃✡️👃✡️👃✡️👃✡️👃✡️👃
?
He's for sure a decent guy.
Had to pray after every take in Oldboy where he eats the octopus since he's a Buddhist.
@Katie McMullen america certainly doesn’t view South Korea as backwards
I really want to see more movies like these get made in the near future.
Movies where you have these absolutely horrible people become the subject of torment over the course of several days, by someone who was affected by them, whether directly or indirectly, and is just as much as an awful person as the former.
Prisoners is another movie alot like this if you've never seen it. Although it's pretty popular so you probably have.
I love how when you strip it down looks like is another "revenge bad movie"
that's why generalizations about anything are cringe kids!!
It's a masterpiece of a movie, easily one of my favorites from Korea
I still think Oldboy is better but it's up there.
I guess my big takeaway from the film would be don’t mix enjoyment or maybe even anger into justice. For as cold as Soo-hyun is, the only thing he really achieved by letting Kyung-Chul go was enjoyment.
This is a personal interpretation but I feel that in Kyung-Chul’s last interaction with Soo-hyun (torture, fake pleading, monologue) he kind of subverts our expectations and reveals that he wasn’t strongly intimidated or broken by the hunting process. Pain was not ideal for him, and was enough to make him hate Soo-hyun, but it was simply a strong momentary discomfort that he could overcome. His tendencies would remain the same in spite of any punishment. Soo-hyun could’ve inflicted the same suffering (“justice”) by tying Kyung-Chul up in a shed and torturing him for a few hours, but he got off on the hunt just like Kyung-Chul continued to do with his victims. That irrationality cost a lot of suffering and innocent casualties.
This is my fiancés top 3 all time favourite movies. Cool to see it being reviewed.
I knew you were gonna talk about this movie eventually, and I’m glad I got to see the review at last. This movie is great. Shakes me to my core, but still great.
Good to see you back after the hack. You've turned me on to so many good series, where usually I just hear about crap I've already seen or is just getting dunked on.
Keep on rocking fam.
If it gets taken down, just know that I was here! Love your stuff, almighty.
this is what an R-rated Batman movie would look like if there was one. grown up Damien Wayne has moved to South Korea, got engaged, found peace in his life working as a police officer after his grandfather passed and then a Korean joker one night chops his fiance's head off.
there are many things to love about this film but one for me is the strangeness of unique serial killers lurking about. Korean Joker's got friendly connections with Korean Professor Pygg who kidnaps and eats people and then Korean Joker bumps into more murderers while riding a taxi.
If you like this movie you'll also like The Chaser! Imagine if Shun Akiyama from Yakuza 4 became the reluctant hero of a murder mystery. Great premise, great twists, ending left me shook.
Thanks man and I loved akiyama, but I think the it you are talking about that police detective who we play in yakuza 4
@@harjasdhariwal5960 no the main character in the chaser is a pimp scumbag. Same energy as Akiyama.
@@sdgundum990 ohhh now that's spicy
I love how the ost from Spec Ops: The Line goes with so many things but it went especially well at the end of your review.
He meant you can find it on Amazon Prime... unless you're in Australia, apparently
Idk how this movie did it but, this movie fucking tanked my night, in the best way possible. It made me feel all the pain it was going for, all the suffering. It truly was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before and I couldn’t even comprehend it at times. Also the cannibal WHO WOULD NOT STOP TALKING WHILE HIS MOUTH WAS FULL made me so fucking uncomfortable, so much more than anything I’ve ever seen, even in like cartel footage.
The agent forgot that while killing fuckers who fucking deserved is fine, he should have taken a note from the Cartel, make it painful as possible but at the same time, leave the victim in question unable to fight back, either that's why breaking their knees or removing their hands entirely, remember that even fallen prey can still kill their would be predators.
Thanks for giving me another Banger to watch with the family
Plot twist: Marin Kitagawa is a Futanari.
She must have some next level tucking game
Don’t threaten me with a good time
It's nice to see the Tom Jane Punisher movie get some recognition. It seems like people just collectively forgot it existed despite how good it is.
And it seems he quite enjoyed the role, since he made a fan short years later.
@@frug5629
Yeah, he fit the role so well and that short was great.
I've always wondered what the consequences will be for the agent after the cut to black. He's stressed his connections throughout the film and considering the blatant kidnapping in public and his superior being so pissed about it, maybe he lives the rest of his life in prison or is forcefully relocated and kept somewhere.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys watching revenge films. Seems like right up my alley. Thanks loli for the great reccomendations
I actually remember doing a rough draft for a story (before watching this film) that involves a detective and a serial killer that ends pretty similar to this film
I don't think I could watch this movie, but I did enjoy your video. Good stuff man as usual.
I definitely need to check this out now
Man I wanna see you go through all of junji ito work that would be a fun series of videos like berserk
Okay I've been waiting for this review. To me this movie was like a better Law Abiding Citizen (which isn't too big of a bar to jump) and it really overstayed its welcome by like 15 minutes. I hope your review will convince me to see it as something more than revenge porn.
Great video, and fantastic review!
I watched this movie and The Man From Nowhere on the same day, and loved them both. If you haven’t seen it yet and you’ve got a free evening, you should definitely check out The Man From Nowhere. It’s another great revenge story with a ‘man with a certain set of skills’ protagonist
Cheers, Loli!
Excellent Review!
I love this movie, I’m happy someone’s talking about it
Hell yes, love the reviews dude.
Absolutely one of, if not the best horror/ thrillers ever made. I tell people all the time that Korean cinema around the 2010s is some of the best movies ever. Hands down better than what Hollywood was producing at the time.
Fantastic job
Thanks Loli! I loved the movie, the ending hit me like a truck.
that intro is fucking fire
It’s always a race when you upload a vid to try and watch the og vid before it’s taken down lol.
Man I consider myself a horror/thriller connoisseur and I still remember the first time I watched this movie. It was 2015, I had just smoked a fat blunt and came across this movie, I didnt watch any trailers so I went in blind. I couldnt count the amount of times I paused or rewound the movie out of pure shock and disgust. Still one of my all-time favorite first experiences. I immediately told all my friends they gotta tune in as soon as i finished watching it. Theres yet to be another movie that captures the combination of thriller, suspense, and action like this one. About to rewatch it for the sixth time as I type this comment.
I fkn love this movie. Brutal,gory and makes you question, "was it worth it?"
Also, would really like to see you do the thomas jane punisher. One of my favorite films of all time.
Great review, I love this movie. SpookyRice did a great review on this art as well.
11:42 For some reason, this scene reminded me of Dying Light 1 of all things. I had to hold in my laughter. Basically early game, the player will have to rely on fucking pipes found across the map when fighting zombies and the enemy humans. And since you're fighting damage sponges, you gotta smack NPCs on the head while they're down (It has active ragdolls).
Ngl, I had a hard time looking at some of the clips...feels like a legit cool flick, but man...I just don't have the stomach for this...even if the villain is the one getting punished.
i watch this shit with my dad when i was 15, my dad got all the way to the part where he look for the tracking device in his shit, and my dad said he had enough, i end up finishing the rest by myself, and it really left a impression XD what a film, i rewatch this every now and than since the first viewing
This is tied with Oldboy as my favorite movie of all time.
Great video man
agreed, there is something about revenge stories that it could even be a bad one but the revenge aspect of the plot make it up for the experience
TH-cam randomly unsubbed me from your channel. This is the first that's ever happened to me (that I've noticed).
Fun fact. My mom watched this movie and absolutely loved and made me come over to rewatch it with her.
Jesus , how old are you? anyway, your mom is cool
Bro is your mom is epic, I wish my future wife is like ur mum
I hope Choi Min-sik's next role, if he woould ever want one, woul'd be something like a caring dad or a grandfather brining his family together, he could pull it off in his sleap. I'm just worried about he guy... What he did with his charachter in this one and Oldboy can really mess one up.
Dis better be good. Ur interrupting my Wendigoon Bible strem.
Berzerks needs an ending with griffith getting tortured to death, also thanks for the recommendation 👍
Great vid bro.😺
Great Movie and Review. I love revenge movies and the count of monte christo is one of my favourite stories.
This movie is a very good lesson on why you shouldn't Fuck around.
Even if you want to have some fun before he dies, just make sure you don't take too long.
An anime youtuber knows what misanthropic means. Subbed
I seen this when I was younger. It’s a phenomenal movie. I have to give credit to the South Koreans, they make some pretty good movies and tv shows better than most movies made in the west nowadays.
I've actully seen this one, it was a great watch!
20:21 when the dungeon master has had enough
Man a good foreign film damn never knew such a good movie flew under the radar thank you for opening my eyes to thus film im definitely gonna watch it
I really like that movie, Korea had lots of hidden litle thrillers for use in the west. Recomend taking a look into Mother from
Bong Joon Ho. Love that that the idea of a guy poping up randonly from nowhere just to fuck the day of the bad guy.
So.........the actor that played the psychology also played the bad guy in Sympathy for lady vengeance and also was in Lucy...............I also saw him in a different role in what was a good film to called The Tiger: an old hunters tale...........
Awesome
I saw the movie based on a recommendation from a previous video. I'm not really a movie guy, so take this with a grain of salt, but I didn't really enjoy it. It definitely due to personal preference, I just wasn't into the whole sadistic nature of the film. That said, I wasn't bored or anything while and I sat through the entire film. As you said in the review, the cinematography was excellent throughout the film.
NICE REVIEW MAN
Me and a friend watched this movie on your suggestion and absolutely loved it. I think you might know him, Captain Jack Sparrow?
It’s also on Hulu
Actually put this one for my family thinking it was just an intense thriller since my parents wanted something intense. Pretty good decision honestly, the loved it but yeah, the gore was probably too much
Dude what is that intro song? It reminds me of this song Nottamun Town, Shazam can’t find it and I gotta know it’s so good and chilling especially with what you edit it to
It's called Masters of War, but Loli used the Ed Sheeran's cover version
You know it’s funny. The premise makes me really want to watch it, but at the same time, scared I’ll throw up in the process.
Something I found both funny and disturbing is just how many serial killers were in this South Korean area. And most them know each other
Yo Vtmb ost, you thinking of making a vid sometime about that game?
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Watched this film when it first came out. Didn't click with me for some reason. Will have it to give it another go, but one thing still pisses me off. SPOiLER !!!
Wasn't the killers big plan just to shit to get the tracker out? What was to stop him from shitting it out before? I know that he was tracking him, but he was decent period behind. There was so much that could have gone wrong. And not to mention there are better ways to put a tracker on someone. The spy should have know this.
It could not go out with a normal dump, he needed a mega dump with the laxatives
Can someone post the montage at the start as its own thing
The main character didnt win unfortunately. He could never get completely what he wanted out of the killer. He had no remorse, no fear, no one special to him. Even what he had wasnt enough to take away what mc had lost. I think its a good take on revenge as, "you wont get what you want" no matter what, sometimes you cant get even. Sometimes theres no point in trying to fill the gap with the pain of others
Have you seen Out of the Furnace with Cjristian Bale and woody Harrelson?. Nothing outstanding but just a pretty good revenge flick that is never discussed.
commenting and liking to fuck with youtube algorithm
Nice
Bro u make some damn got videos 🫡 good work
bloody hell... I don't think I could handle the blood. The violence is fine, but the blood and gore and really cutting into people pushes the edge for me. Still, interesting to hear about the movie.
Dude....😳
This fuckin movie....
Glad i caught the video quickly, if i had never watched this i may never have known the movie even exists and i get the feeling This video might not stay available very long.
😄👍
its a definite "oh he done fucked up" movie and I love it.
theres always a bigger fish
I saw the devil when I downed 32 Benadryls
The serial killer still won.
Nice video
Now this is going to bit off topic and I am a new viewer but in one review you said you hated the new coloseus howcome (I am just generaly curoius I don't know much about it).
My friend and I both love movies, and I go to his semi frequently to watch something, eventually I decided on this one from his collection after hearing him give a brief description of it, and I love revenge films (Blue Ruin was also bleakly amazing).
But this.... Was not a pleasant experience, I loved the film, but my God I wasn't expecting the Korean equivalent of New French Extremity. I've seen a few extreme films where the whole point was the depravity, August Underground and the like (didn't enjoy those either, but I have this strange compulsion to test my stomach's strength and how disgusted I feel), but this feels like a very personal film. I felt like I needed a shower after watching it.
Absolute kino, thanks Mike for subjecting me to this, and thanks TAL for finally giving me a longform video I've been craving as a form of therapy.
FUCK YES I LOVE THIS MOVIE
