oldboy remake 2013 dvd blu-ray
josh brolin oldboy remake
Product Description: OLDBOY is a provocative, visceral thriller that follows the story of Joe Doucette, a man who is abruptly kidnapped and held hostage for 20 years in solitary confinement, for no apparent reason. When he is suddenly released without explanation, he begins an obsessive mission to find out who imprisoned him, only to discover that the real mystery is why he was set free.

For a second consecutive weekend, "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" was first at the box-office, earning $74 million in the 3-day timeframe, which adds up to a US total of $296 million and a worldwide cume of $573 million. The sequel's US gross is still $100 million behind the first film, but the international ticket sales are a lot better, after only 10 days in theaters.

The Disney animation feature "Frozen" has expanded from its initial limited release and went straight to No.2 with an impressive $66 million and a 10-day total of $93 million. Overseas, the film hasn't performed so well, grossing only $16 million.

A much less impressive performance is that of the Jason Statham thriller "Homefront" which opened at No.5 with $6.9 million, in line with Statham's less successful films of the past years, like "Parker" and "Safe". But, since the film only cost $22 million to make, it will manage to recouperate its costs, eventually.

Spike Lee's remake of "Oldboy" opened this past weekend in a semi-wide release, but managed to tank at the box-office, grossing only  $850,000 from 583 theaters. The film had a budget of $30 million, so its progress is not encouraging.

More box-office details and the complete top 10, after the jump.

Spike Lee's "Oldboy" remake looks more and more interesting. Today we have another set of great videos for Lee's movie. First of all, the new trailer is here, which is still sort of a teaser and doesn't add much to the previous Red Band, but it's still cool. Then we have 2 new clips that tease the conflict between Josh Brolin's revenge-seeking Joe Doucett and the mysterious villain played by Sharlto Copley. The featurette offers some details about the plot and highlights Brolin's performance and physical efforts. The Viral Spot shows an unique kind of workout, the kind that takes 20 years and lots of frustration and anger to perfect.

The remake also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen, Lance Reddick, Michael Imperioli and James Ransone.

"Oldboy" opens in theaters on November 27th.

Watch all the videos after the jump.

josh brolin hammer oldboy remake

Three new pictures and 20 viral posters have been released online for Spike Lee's "Oldboy" remake. The pictures offer the first look at Sharlto Copley's villain and an unknown woman, as well as a new look at the scene in which Josh Brolin's revenge-seeking Joe Doucett tortures Samuel L. Jackson's character. The posters are even cooler as they create a timeline of Doucett's 20-year imprisonment, associating important events from each year with the character's slow descent into madness and despair.

The remake stars Josh Brolin, Elizabeth Olsen, Samuel L. Jackson, Sharlto Copley, Lance Reddick, Michael Imperioli and James Ransone.

"Oldboy" opens in theaters on November 27th.

oldboy-remake-josh-brolin

A red band trailer and poster have been released for Spike Lee's remake of Park Chan-wook's 2003 thriller "Oldboy" (which was inspired by a Japanese manga). The new version stars Josh Brolin as an advertising executive who is kidnapped and held in solitary confinement for 20 years after which he is inexplicably released. He then embarks on a mission to find out who orchestrated his captivity and take revenge. The remake has been described as a mix of elements from the 2003 film and the original manga, completely re-envisioned and re-contextualizeed for a specific American story. The filmmakers have compared this remake to "The Departed", a remake of "Internal Affairs" and one of the best examples of how a remake can become a great film on its own terms. Spike Lee's "Oldboy" also stars Elizabeth Olsen, Sharlto Copley, Lance Reddick, Michael Imperioli and James Ransone, and will be released on October 25, 2013.
