    The song she sings to summon King Caesar goes unnecessarily hard. 

    Love that this is more psychedelic James Bond with gorilla aliens than it is a kaiju destruction movie, but when it is a kaiju destruction movie, it’s a bloody bar brawl of a showdown.

  • Paper Moon

    In the dying days of democracy within the United States, I’m struggling to think of a more timely film. As a proud Marxist who’s very anti-fascist, you could probably guess why I have several degrees of anxiety about the US’s current regime. 

    Fernanda Torres is a force and should take home the Academy Award for Best Actress. Incredible performance. 

    Anyways, let me say it loud for those in the back — FUCK FASCISM.

  • Mickey 17

    Mickey 17

    ★★★★

    Need all people to hate the rich and distrust the government as much as Bong Joon-ho does!

    Also, there’s like zero subtext in this film. A character literally screams at the Trump stand-in for everything that’s wrong in the world. Unite the Mickeys, kill the greedy, and bless the Creepers. 

    EDIT 1: Mickey 17 understands the same presumptuous nature that I have of assuming that he fucked up or that people just don’t want him (“They don’t want my meat!”) and I love him for that.
