Looking for a job? When a happy family man is dismissed after twenty-five years of loyal service at a paper company, he finds the perfect solution to land his next role: truly eliminate the competition.
No Other Choice is a brutal story for brutal times, one steeped in corrosive humor and delivered with Park’s customary flair.
★★★★
Those who dread being knocked over the head with a political message can rest easy; it’s an amusing caper, not a stern lecture.
★★★★
With humour blacker than black bean noodles, the film is a masterful work of cinema which might well be Chan-wook’s masterpiece. And given this is the man who directed The Handmaiden that’s saying a lot.
★★★★★
The latest exhibit in the mounting body of evidence suggesting Park Chan-wook may be the most elegant filmmaker alive.
