From director Park Chan-wook and based on Donald E. Westlake's novel THE AX, this diabolical new thriller follows Man-su (Lee Byung-hun), a middle-aged husband and father, on his desperate hunt for a new job after his abrupt layoff from the paper company he served for 25 years. After an extended and increasingly worrisome period of unemployment, Man-su begins to take merciless measures toward solidifying his standing with a potential new employer.
