Oldboy – koreański thriller z roku 2003 w reżyserii Park Chana-wooka. Oparty na japońskiej mandze pod tym samym tytułem. Film stanowi drugą część „trylogii zemsty” rozpoczętej filmem Pan Zemsta (2002), a zakończonej Panią Zemstą. Dwa lata po wejściu do kin, powstał bollywoodzki remake tego filmu pod tytułem „Zinda”. Kolejna, tym razem amerykańska wersja, została wydana w 2013 roku, pod nazwą Oldboy. Zemsta jest cierpliwa. Film opowiada historię przeciętnego człowieka, ojca i męża, Oh Dae-su, który jest uwięziony w celi przypominającej pokój hotelowy przez 15 lat, nie znając tożsamości ani motywów porywacza. Gdy zostaje uwolniony, dowiaduje się, że porywacz ma co do niego dalsze plany. Film zdobył Grand Prix na Festiwalu Filmowym w Cannes w 2004 r. oraz pochwały od przewodniczącego Jury, reżysera Quentina Tarantino.
