Lady Vengeance (2005) Review: Park Chan-wook’s Ice-Cold Finale

★★★★☆ 4/5

Lee Young-ae plans thirteen years of retribution in the close of the Vengeance Trilogy — pastry, prison, and a moral geometry colder than Oldboy’s hallway.

Essential if you are walking the trilogy — a masterpiece of control, not of warmth.
