More Info:
This unnecessary remake of the 2003 Korean hit is redeemed by casting Josh Brolin in the lead, with a supporting cast that includes Elizabeth Olsen, Sharlto Copley, and Samuel L. Jackson. Brolin is an Everyman, suddenly kidnapped then held in solitary confinement for 20 long years -- then just as suddenly released. Or is he? Layer upon layer of conspiracy, loss, mystery and pain drive him forward to discover the truth. Director Spike Lee uses the strong "R" rating to let us experience Brolin's anger in graphic brutality. Check it out.
