If you loved The Sense of an Ending, try Oldboy

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Sense of an Ending, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Oldboy is

Downtown. Rain. A dropped hammer. Joe Doucett, wrecked, adrift in a booze haze, yanked from his life, locked away. Two decades vanish. One moment he's drowning in vice; the next, he's dumped back into daylight with a single clue. Lee's remake hits harder than most.
