Before I talk about the quality of the movie, I need to tell you something hilarious about the Oldboy remake.

If you’ve seen the Korean original (if you’re reading this, I’m sure you have) you’ll know that the entire film hinges towards that one sex scene. The shock value that the scene exudes during the final reveals was one of the primary things that made Park Chan Wook’s 2003 movie so famous. The film released in India without the sex scene because the Censor Board axed it. There are no blurs, no edits, just a big old chop – it’s completely removed and the sex is not even implied.
