Enough words are said; some people loved it, and others hated it. It's is basically a motion picture resume about violence in genre thrillers and our attitude about it. It should've been a good topic in a decade ago, but in the new millennium too much debate has progressed already, making this old dog a bit rusty to swallow. If you haven't seen it, then give it a try. If you are a fan of art-house films then it would make you a good 100-minute chill.
The American remake of Funny Games is almost the same film as the 1997 original except a cinematography by Darius Khondji and American actors, which sometimes becomes too melodramatic. The visual, besides, is what really shines through. It is not spectacular like his usuals, but it is a really pretty upgrade from the grainy original. If you're a first-timer, then this one is your pick thanks to that.
* P.S : This film is not released in South Korea yet, and I just saw it in a Spanish theater in the middle of a trip.
