Reviews

“A zany, all-out crowd-pleaser from Mr. Park, who exhibits a rare genius with the camera throughout, devising breathtaking shots, zooms and transitions, his cockeyed visual wizardry perfectly matched to the outlandishness of the plot.”

Zachary Barnes
Wall Street Journal

“A caustic portrait of the rat race as legitimately killer, and another feather in the cap of one of world cinema’s true maestros.”

Nick Schager
The Daily Beast

“No Other Choice Isn’t just Park’s funniest film, but his most humane, too – and that’s quite something for a comedy as violent as this one.”

Nicholas Barber
