The Variety review is the most spot-on. This sadly pales in comparison to any of his films in the revenge trilogy (even the mostly mediocre Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance).

This sadly pales in comparison to any of his films in the revenge trilogy (even the mostly mediocre Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance). Good performances (not surprisingly) but an uneven script that really went nowhere and had more than a few holes in the plot. His films are always beautiful to look at though and there are some scenes of brilliance. Just not as consistent as Lady Vengeance and especially Old Boy.… Expand

While the movie is beautifully shot, wonderfully acted and the story was interesting, the overly long running time and the multiple sex scenes are ultimately the downfall of the movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Quite a little bit differentiation categorization of Chan-Wook-park, Thirst being remembered as a fantasy product. This film knocks towards the presence of God as well it calls about the depiction of vampires. It so much difficult to chew out the entire core of the film rather we are a Marvel fan or something, apart from that the director himself quoted the strange behavior of the two lead characters unto the most because he just wanted to show off that kind of paradoxical nature simultaneously. The director attacks the church, god and much more the religion also. The protagonist as a priest in the film doesn't carry any burden of the church responsibilities and he just wanted to be a human not as a god when everybody worships him of his ability to cure that endemic virus. He just behaves just opposite to the so-called god definition through sucking blood and he just clarifies his point that it is hard to kill someone for him to get blood. Anyway, the entire shape of the film structured as an absurd outcome which flavors too many supernatural aspects.… Expand
