TOO ARTSY



Everything we already saw in „Sympathy for Mr.Vengeance” is there in the second part of „The Vengeance trilogy” by Park Chan-Wook, but enhanced to the very limit. This particularly goes for the artistic approach to camera, lighting and choreography which are both mesmerizing, but also a bit tiresome.

Plot uses the two trademarks of Korean scriptwriters: overlapping of stories and course of time and it uses it with some variable success. First part of the movie tends to stall everything, while things get a bit more interesting towards the end, with some true life dramatical questions opened up in the waiting room.

„Sympathy for Lady Vengeance” is a beautiful picture, but with no matching sound to complement it.
