Entertainment Reviews:
[A] lively commercial genre picture with a hypnotic, obsessive quality, and an utter indifference to being liked, much less approved of.
RogerEbert.com
The remainder of the picture suffers from a predictable lack of originality. But the inability to consistently entertain is an issue of its own creation.

Digital Journal
Why would we want to watch a chronicle of Joe's agonies, and the agonies he gets to inflict on others? Passing it up would be the best revenge.
Wall Street Journal
Rating: B- --
Oldboy is elaborate and complex, but that's not the same thing as being engrossing and deep. It winds up being a better riddle than it is a movie.

Assignment X
A paranoia-laced tale of injustice, obsession, and revenge that finds Lee plumbing the dark depths of the human soul, OLDBOY is replete with intricately choreographed fight sequences and shocking revelations...
Film Comment
Rating: 1/5 --
A garish reproduction that never pretends to know who it's for.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
It's an unconventional action film whose closest American kin might be Christopher Nolan's "Memento." It doesn't all work, but it's fascinatingly conflicted.
