No Other Choice
Directed with pristine precision by acclaimed S. Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook, No Other Choice is a wickedly clever takedown of the corporate rat race that finds a perfect avatar in Lee Byung-Hun’s skillfully hapless performance. (R, 2h 19m)
“The film is a zany, all-out crowd-pleaser from Mr. Park, who exhibits a rare genius with the camera throughout, devising breathtaking shots, zooms and transitions, his cockeyed visual wizardry perfectly matched to the outlandishness of the plot.” – Zachary Barnes, Wall Street Journal
“Working with cinematographer Kim Woo-hyung, Park has once again made one of the most visually captivating films of the year.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
