Decision to Leave
Chris's take
There are moments where Chan-wook's greatness shines through, but as an overall package it doesn't doesn't quite stand as an equal to his other greats. Still very much a good film, it is beautifully shot and crafts a noir atmosphere, but I was not completely sold on the depth of the central relationship and the pacing/editing was a bit offbeat.
