Visionary Korean auteur Park Chan-wook (OLDBOY, THIRST, DECISION TO LEAVE) adapts Donald E. Westlake’s “The Ax” into a blistering satire of work culture and survival. Lee Byung-hun stars as Man-soo, a devoted husband and father cast adrift after losing his longtime job. Desperation drives him into absurd and escalating acts of violence, rendered with Park’s signature flair for pitch-black comedy. The result is a darkly enthralling fable with a brilliantly bitter sting.
