My faves:
1) Sympathy for Lady Vengeance - "Old Boy" plays the villain this time. Film has a lot of creative imagery in it and isn't quite so ultra-violent.
2) Old Boy - Gritty, grounded. Has a real Ew Factor.
3) Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance - Colorful, some queasiness with the story fueled on irony.
