Craig H The very 1st film i reviewed on here over 4 years ago and decided to watch it again. The Story of a man working within a criminal underworld who has aspirations for something better and more in life through his meeting of his bosses lover, but reality is bitter and brutal. It's dark, stylish, tragic and no one does revenge more poetically and visually than Asian movies. One of Asias best, would make a brilliant double feature with Oldboy! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/24/24 Full Review Carlos T Filme: O Gosto da Vingança Assistido: Elenco: @byunghun0712 @illusomina @hwangjungminvn Kim Yeong-cheol, Kim Roi-há @jungyumidaily @actor_jingoo @ericmun.shinhwa Modelo: #ação #mafia #gangsters Duração: 2h Ano: 2005 Minha opinião: Um filme de gangsters ao estilo asiático coreano, chinês, Thailandês, japonês,.... Com todo drama existente o momento da vingança e da matança. Com muito sangue e tiros. Temos aqui Lee Byung-hun um ator conhecido de Hoolywood com os G.I Joe, Red, Exterminador,...... Mas aqui seu papel é de guarda-costa da máfia e deve ser da amante do chefão. Mas acaba se apaixonando por ela Hee (Shin Min-a). E isso o condena a morte. É enterrado, mas enquanto pensam que esta morto, ele se levanta para a vingança. E vamos ver um leão atraz da vingança. E ai vemos as melhores cenas do filme. As atuações são boas e as cenas fortes e produzidas. Roteiro e enredo fizeram bem a lição de casa. De um roteiro conhecido fizeram bem. Vale apena assistir? Para quem gosta do gênero. Nota: 6,5 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Darren D Another team up between director Kim Jee-woon & leading man Lee Byung-hun, makes "A Bittersweet Life" another impressive title from the two, a beautifully made & violent crime thriller. A breakdown of communication & duty from one loyal gangster leads to all trust & loyalty from his boss to be thrown out of the window. This one act is the domino effect for the story, leading to a chain reaction of violent encounters of rival gangs, arm deals & revenge that works towards the final confrontation of blood, bullets & a trail of bodies. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Daniel M Good movie with a story that felt original and done well Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/13/23 Full Review JJJJJJ J Its hard to find much fault with this film. Maybe know watching it for the second time maybe I am seeing it with rose-tinted glasses but I really think this film is incredible. The story, music, shots, editing everything is exceptionally done. The most important thing though is the plot and story. This film is a great character study about a singular man, his thoughts, feels, life, struggle. Just truly incredible. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Liam D Packs more of a Punch than you think because Kim Jee-woon (The Quiet Family, Doomsday Book) draws you into this gruesome but touching Thriller Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/21/21 Full Review Read all reviews
