Similar to parasite or snowpiercer before, this Bong Joon-ho film delivers with a combination of very in your face class critique, deeply cynical humour, bloody action and „was that necessary??“ gory brutality. The over the top chaos sometimes brought out a bit too close to the ridiculous for me to give it a perfect rating — still a total recommendation for me.
Less of a documentary, more of a think piece, an invitation to reflect on your preconceived notions, prejudices and believes. I love the spirit of the discussion that forms the heart of the movie and I wish we had such open and diverse discourse more often in Western Europe as well.
A movie with nice intentions and sometimes quite beautiful cinematography but which severely overstayed its screentime. No place for critical thinking: the message will be forested for you
I’ve rarely seen a movie that has hit its mark so precisely as this one. Absolutely painful to watch and yet still hilarious.
