    "Are you afraid to die"

    Bong Joon Ho delivers a highly entertaining and zany satire, delivering some strong commentary of capitalism, social hierarchies and imperialism that's all mixed together with some great slapstick humour too. Though it does maybe have one too many ideas for it to all feel fully fleshed out enough.

    Jimmy Giannopoulos wastes what could be a rather fresh take on a mafia film and sadly wastes it with a really drawn out build up that ruins the tension, flat directing and a pretty weak script that leave the overall film feeling meandering and mediocre.
    The acting is all fine, Shiloh Fernandez does a nice job as Gio selling his characters uneasiness around his family of…
