Park Chan-wook (DECISION TO LEAVE, OLDBOY) returns with a razor-sharp, darkly comic thriller adapted from Donald E. Westlake’s novel, The Ax. Lee Byung-hun (I SAW THE DEVIL) stars as Man-soo, a model employee whose life unravels when he’s abruptly laid off after 25 years. Facing mounting debts and a vanishing sense of dignity, he sets his sights on a coveted job at a rival company, only to discover the competition is fierce. His solution? Eliminate the rivals, one by one. Co-written by Park and Don McKellar, NO OTHER CHOICE is a stylish, merciless satire of ambition, corporate cruelty, and the murderous lengths we’ll go to stay on top.
2025, 139 Minutes, South Korea, In Korean with English Subtitles, Directed by Park Chan-wook
