The Samaritan (I) (2012)
2/10
Please if you must see this movie, WATCH OLDBOY FIRST
19 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Let me start off by saying I never comment on movies on IMDb but I felt it was my duty to warn anyone before they watch this movie that they will be cheating themselves to watch this piece of crap without seeing Oldboy first.

I figured this was going to be the standard "revenge of the wronged man" flick. Most of which all seem the same to me because if you've seen one you've seen them all but it had Sammy in it so I said I'll give it a watch and sometimes you can find a gem. I was legitimately interested in it until roughly the 40 minute mark when they dropped the bomb on me. At that point I was simply mortified when I realized that this movie was a remake/knockoff of the movie Oldboy. The audacity of whoever made this to even try to recreate what in my opinion is one of the best revenge flicks ever made is down right offensive. If you are hell bent on watching this movie I beg you for the love of the film gods see Oldboy first. You're only cheating yourself if you don't
