Joint Security Area (2000)

  • Park, Chan-wook
  • 2000, Park, Chan-wook, South Korea

Park’s breakthrough success feels like a cinematic page-turner, set in the context of an investigation on a shootout incident at the border separating North and South Korea.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Rating: 4 out of 5.

⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 2.5 out of 5.

An outrageous stunner, Park’s ‘vampire’ movie exploring the sin of desire and the limits of religious faith is a genre-bending and unsettlingly beautiful work.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Still one of the finest achievements of contemporary Korean cinema, Park Chan-wook’s psychologically complex and violent revenge mystery will consume you whole.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
