I watched this movie with zero prior knowledge of its origin, plot, or reviews. My girlfriend says to me, "Let's watch this movie I heard about." Me: "Sure, babe."
The movie starts, I hear an Asian dialect being spoken, I see subtitles begin to scroll across the screen and admittedly with a bit of prejudice say to myself, "Ugh, I just agreed to watch a 2 hour foreign film."
Within 30 minutes I found myself glued to the screen. By the end, exclaming that it was probably the best movie I'd seen in a decade.
