The music have strong presence to help build up that world.
Old Boy is a movie that would make you think of a modernized hero revenge movie that is both realistic and unbelievable. Just like Old Boy, music is more crucial than other movies. I loved the first two parts, the third part was the only disappointing part where the plot was predictable and not as interesting and it being the last part makes the movie fell short. The story can be summed up as a hero saving a princess and is split into 3 parts. The west : grand and luxury The Japanese : Clean, simple elegant design. The costume design and cinematography are perfect. Thematically beautiful, the mansion itself is split half between a western and Japanese. This movie did manage to get it quite right.There were scenes of sexual attractions in many parts of the movie but it did not take away all other elements that were done well in the movie. I was concerned when this movie is announced, a mis-used sex scene could make the movie feels cheap.
One of the most overused element in cinema and often mis-used and unnecessary.
