After coldly rejecting her at first, he gradually accepts her in his life and decides to quit his cruel job and seek a decent, redemptive life.

Pieta Movie Review | |
| Fascination returns at the stirring climax, when the plot neatly twists and the film's apparently simple message turns deeper, and blacker. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail A mother's love for her child takes on brutal new meaning in Pieta, a film by Kim Ki-duk that's as hard to watch as it is to forget. Peter Howell-Toronto Star Like many South Korean films, revenge is a major theme here, although the way Kim handles it is particularly subtle and surprising: It sneaks up on you. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald May not rank with the operatic madness of Park Chan-wook, or the visceral overkill of Kim Jee-woon, but if you're still not sick of feeling sick, then Pieta might be the movie for you. William Goss-Film.com More philosophy than film at times, it asks questions without expecting easy answers. What is money? What is love? And what would you do for either? Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger Expectedly gruesome in some of its details. But it's the explicitness about capitalism's emotional wreckage that gives this micro-budgeted drama a gut-punch heft. Robert Abele-Los Angeles Times A gangster story with a latent conscience. Katherine Monk-Canada.com The film's big reveal may not come as that much of a surprise; you may figure out where it's going well before the end. But it's the getting there that is, if not exactly fun, then certainly hypnotic. Cary Darling-Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com [A] lurid but undeniably powerful story, and the lead performances are compelling. Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion By the time the last dark plot twist rolls around, any dollop of emotional connection has been diluted in a sea of empty unpleasantness. Marc Mohan-Oregonian Ki-duk's having his cake, and chewing it with his mouth open, too. Andrew Wright-Portland Mercury Wrenching Oedipal tragedy not for the casual viewer Marty Mapes-Movie Habit No comfort in this Pieta Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit The film contains some memorable moments, and a pair of fine performances, but it's hard not to feel that it would have proved more successful if it had stayed on the path it was heading down for the first forty minutes or so. Oliver Lyttelton-The Playlist The performances of these two leads are compelling and the Cheonggyecheon area can almost be seen as another character in Kim's morality tale. Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle Kim has a very specific wringer he intends to usher his pawns through and a particular course he's plotted to it. Consequently, a complex, troubling character study slowly becomes a borderline conventional narrative. Curtis Woloschuk-Paste Magazine | |
