Figured I would give this sucker a bump. I've got the dvd on pre-order from yesasia. I've been a little mixed on teh directors previous efforts, but this sounds interesting. If anyone receives it please post a review.

mixed reviews? on 'a tale of two sisters'?! well, i suppose so. generally theyre positive, and its one of the best films of the last 5 years to come out of nowhere onto dvd from any country...

We just got our copy in today (will have a review up on DVD Talk soon). I had a chance to watch it before sending out for review and I think it's really quite good.

Some plot points are really tough to take, but that's not a bad thing. Definately worth checking out!

I just meant I've got mixed views on ji-woo kim's work. Tale of two sisters just never did it for me.

It's very different from Tale of Two Sisters.

I liked it okay. It wasn't the greatest thing I've ever seen - it was basically a straight revenge story. It started out kinda slow, but that was all set-up. The second half is fairly action-packed. It sure wasn't original, or even interesting. But it was done so well, that it remained mostly engaging and entertaining, while not insulting the viewer's intelligence like most American action-movies.

I just ordered it from DVDAsian. It looks good and I do enjoy revenge themed movies. If you haven't already seen it, Dead Man Shoes is easily one of the best, if not THE best revenge film I have ever seen. AmazonUK is where I picked mine up in case your interested.
