Veteran paper expert Yoo Man-soo is abruptly fired after 20 years with the same company, threatening his seemingly perfect family life. When a new dream job finally appears, he devises an extreme solution to secure it: to track down and kill all the other qualified candidates.
Read morePark Chan-wook’s latest cinematic tour de force showcases his signature qualities – unpredictable storytelling, dark humor, sharp satire, and subtle humanism. Inspired by Donald E. Westlake’s novel The Ax (1997) and its earlier adaptation by Costa-Gavras, the project has been in development since 2009. After 16 years of refinement, it is no surprise that Park has described it as his “life’s project” – nor that the result is a full-fledged masterpiece. Lee Byung-hun delivers a phenomenal lead performance.
No Other Choice premiered at the Venice Film Festival, continued on to major international festivals, and became a major box office success in South Korea. This is a film you have to see – there is no other choice.
