Commited nutters in love... very promising scenario. If Park has a good script then this could be potentially a very good film.

Have been looking forward to this ever since the title was announced. Love the scenario.

Not getting excited yet, but interested to see Park doing comedy.

Agree with Bruce.

Like the piano tune on the trailer

Overated director anyway (films lok great, but scripts/plot suck a lot at times), be nice to see what else he can do.

Looking forward to this, actually.

Not a thread specifically on this film, but one on Park Chan-wook:

From the first time i read about this, i thought it was the perfect scenario for Mr. Park to venture into this genre with. Looking forward to it!

You people are just plain strange.

I don't think we've seen the same film.
This is (with OldBoy) my favourite PCW.

Great music, great acting, great editing...
Can't really find anything wrong with Cyborg.
Except the shooting scenes, maybe. They weren't necessary IMO.

Perhaps... but shame it doesn't make Cyborg a great film. Try lazy storyline, clumsy execution, overlong finale... (IMO).

It had some nice PCW touches but check out One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest for a much more intelligent and heart-felt black comedy (set in an insane asylum).

Also I'd have been very surprised if you hated this film Tom.

Actually I must give PCW credit for trying something new. He now knows never to try it again.

Crap film, yeah. It's also very ironic the only good scenes in this mess have something to do with violence...
