Personally speaking, this movie is quite boring, predictable, “flat”, plenty of dialogues that don’t add value, so totally far from the Kim Ki Duk’s directing style;  this work is empty of all the artistic and innovative aspects we got used previously.

For these reasons “One on One” is quite disappointing even though the filmaker says that it reaches “the goal”.

Talking about this movie, the director said: “It is a film about the place where I live, Korea… Whether or not you agree with the film’s ending, if you do not want to feel killed, there is no reason for you to watch it. I did it so that someone would understand. Otherwise, there is no meaning. This is what we are now.” 

So I’m wondering… if he did the movie “for someone would understand” this is not a film for the audience, it’s just a movie for “the few”.

Quoting one of the movie character: “Who am I” for judging the goal?

"You make me want to be a better man."
