A Bittersweet Life 4K 2005 Director's Cut Ultra HD 2160p

Storyline
Kim Sun-woo is a manager for a hotel and an enforcer for the hotel's owner: a cold, calculating crime boss. Sun-woo is assigned to a seemingly simple errand while his boss is on a business trip. He's to shadow his boss's young mistress, Heesoo, whom the boss suspects may be cheating with another, younger man. Sun-woo is mandated to kill them both if he discovers an affair, but he decides to spare their lives... at his own expense.

User Review
This masterpiece comes from the director of Tales of Two Sisters and he delivers an epic tale of revenge.

I can't urge you enough to see this movie. The gun battles are reminiscent of Scarface, the martial arts are gritty and realistic, the poignancy of unrequited love is painful, there is a deep philosophical current that underlies this film, and the camera work is superb-but that's not what carries the movie. The actor who plays the main character is what sets this magnificent movie apart from the trash put out by Hollywood. He's a man's man-sharply dressed in well tailored suits driving in a BMW sedan (like the transporter)through beautiful Seoul (showing what a beautiful, spotless, and vibrant city it is). He reaches the point of no return and his vengeance and determination are a tour de force.

Magnificent. Bravo. South Korean films reign supreme.
