Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. The first in Chan Wook Park's Revenge Trilogy followed by Oldboy and Lady Vengeance. It was the last one in the series that I saw. None of these movies have clear cut heroes and villians are nothing like The Count of Monte Cristo. The biggest thing I took out of all these movies is how terribly sad but beautifuly made they all are. Revenge may be payback but it has a costly price of it's own and that theme runs through all these films.
