Best Fight Scene Ever: Part 2 – Oldboy
“Anyone here with an AB blood type, raise your hand.”
A man is imprisoned for 15 years with no understanding of why or, during his incarceration, any idea of how long. Then suddenly he is free and his journey begins. One of his first actions is to beat the crap out of the people who had kept him incarcerated for so long. Basically it is like a sideways scrolling beat ‘em up.
The corridor fight scene took seventeen takes in three days to perfect, and was one continuous take — there was no editing of any sort except for the knife that was stabbed in Oh Dae-su’s back, which was computer-generated imagery.
