I do not want to generalize, but what is with the Asians and their grisly ideas about revenge? From Oldboy to I Saw the Devil to this film in which we follow the exploits of a sadistic killer that seems to have a taste for killing pregnant women. But could this person have a legitimate reason for doing what he does? Horrific and graphic, but never uninteresting.

I really don't know what to think about this film. I would describe it as mysterious, dark, sick, weird, suspenseful, thrilling, melancholic, depressing, haunting... did I say weird? Against all odds, I liked it.

Knallharter Thriller, der mit einem interessanten, verschachtelten Aufbau überzeugen kann. Sehr spannend und reisserisch erzählt, handelt es sich um eine Art modernen Grindhouse-Film.

El cine asiatico esta plagado de historias de venganza y algunas de ellas han sido de las mejores y mas originales propuestas en años (como "Oldboy", "I Saw The Devil" y "Confessions"). "Revenge: A Love Story" no alcanza la grandeza de las antes mencionadas pero si funciona como un thriller brutal y muy entretenido que es precisamente lo que anuncia su titulo y algo mas. Esta inicia como la historia de un asesino en serie pero a traves de capítulos, la historia va desenvolviendo el proposito de la venganza y las consecuencias en sus personajes.
"Revenge: A Love Story" no es una cinta para cualquiera pero fanaticos del genero la disfrutaran. Es un muy logrado thriller. Recomendable.

This movie was just amazing from the story to the acting and to the directing but how this movie is told is awesome and not everything is clear which adds something to this movie. Just an amazing movie and very messed up in parts a great chinese movie.

Revenge: A Love Story

Absolutely fantastic, and a harrowing watch .. other reviews I have read say they found the mode of telling the story confusing, but we had no such problems .. has some pretty graphic violence, so not for everyone, but I can't recommend this enough.

Revenge: A Love Story’s ambitiousness is admirable and the first act builds a relatively solid foundation. However Wong fails to construct anything particularly original or engaging on those first 30 minutes. By all means this isn’t a bad addition to the increasing ‘revenge’ genre, but pales in comparison to recent works from Hong Kong’s East Asian neighbours.

Decent revenge story with a couple of interesting scenes.
