    yeah this absolutely slapped. First one of Bong's movies I've seen, and went in almost completely blind. Was blown away, probably a 4.5/5 for me. My one gripe was the almost epilogue at the end. I didn't necessarily need a "hopeful" ending. Felt a little too corny for me. Loved how all movie there was never a true protagonist, as clearly everyone was only in it for themselves. So the framing of the end was a bit disappointing to me

    saw this yesterday moty

    also why are people saying it being accessibly is a bad thing, thats the movies greatest strength, because the classism themes are universal. no matter where you're from you can relate to it heavily and apply it to your culture

  • Nov 7, 2019

    this film is so metaphorical!

    Movie was dumb hard

    There was some good ass shots too
    At top of my head the one the dude hits Kevin and you see his head on the floor with his blood mixed with that jar the dude drank and threw on the floor

    That and the whole sequence of Kim walking away from the crime scene

    Kinda bummed I had to leave quick during the credits because the score that started sounded hella dope

    Okay so I’m new to this filmmaker, is his other work as good/better which one should I check out after this? because this lowkey makes me wanna rewatch Oldboy somehow lol

    Also if anyone has suggestions of similar asian movies like that hit me up fam

    This is probably his most accessible film but definitely peep Memories of Murder. Has the father in it as a detective I believe. F***ing amazing film.

    Memories of Murder is his best work besides this

    Idk how familiar you are with korean films but I would say Burning (it shares similar themes to Parasite), The Handmaiden, The Wailing & Right Now, Wrong Then are good entries

    If you f***ed with Oldboy then I Saw The Devil might be up your alley

    Man I liked the dialogue, acting, cinematography, etc, but this had the worst plot of any movie I’ve ever seen.
