Compassion has unintended consequences when a man and beast face off. But who is the real monster here? As outsiders invade their soil the local inhabitants of all forms are faced with death and destruction. A tragic and elaborate telling of how cruel human nature can really be as a proud animal is hunted needlessly into extinction. At a crucial moment, a past memory triggers a forgotten emotion and provokes a deep respect between bitter rivals.

The CGI animals were a bit off-putting but it's understandable that they were used. The locales are beautiful and the story touching. Good stuff!

Probably my favorite Korean movie. So sad, so beautiful. A truly wonderful film that is a bit of a fable or fairy tale. The lives of both man and tiger are intertwined with parallel tragedies. Choi Min-sik was the perfect choice for the role of the hunter. He brings respect to the character, which is necessary considering the subject matter. Keep the tissues handy. Expect your heart to break, and watch it anyway. An outstanding film.
