This deliriously entertaining satire from Park Chan-wook (Decision to Leave, The Handmaiden, Oldboy) follows an unemployed man who, desperate to land a coveted role, develops a ruthless plan to dispatch his competition. No Other Choice transplants The Ax, a 1997 crime thriller by Donald E. Westlake, to present-day South Korea, where seeking employment is a cutthroat business.

Man-soo (Squid Game’s Lee Byung Hun) has it all: a loving wife and kids, the beautiful woodland house where he grew up, two exceptional dogs. Then, after 25 years at Solar Paper, he’s suddenly given the axe. Desperate to save the family home and retain the lifestyle to which they have become accustomed, when Man-soo learns of a new position going at Moon Paper, he hatches a diabolical plan to deal with his rivals.
