3-iron (Korean) - A very very different movie. The protagonist is a guy who breaks in and lives in empty apartments/houses and does small household things for them when the owners are away. He doesn't steal any of their stuff. Some times he is lucky not to get caught and sometimes he is not. The hero and the heroine don't speak to each other throughout the film. Ennannellam yosichu padam edukkuraanga. I don't want to spoil more. See the film for yourself.
P.S: What an idea to hit by golf balls.

saw the final part of the Vengeance triology, Sympathy for lady vengeance. yet to watch the first of the triology "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance".
The movie is stylish, BGM and photography are good. The violence in the movie is less compared to Old Boy, not sure if its intentional one. This movie is defn below OB, neverthless its a good one esp the last 30 minutes.

Stray Dog (Kurosawar - Japanese)
A homicide detective officer loses his gun in a bus and he wants to retrieve it anyhow. The film takes a philosphical turn when people are murdered from his pistol bullets and he feels its his responsible to nab the killer. Toshiro Mifune and Takashi Shimura are excellent as usual and especially Mifune looks so elegant and handsome. I would not say this is Kurosawar's best but it is a very good watch.
