    You could just as well call this movie Bong 8, a variation on the director's usual themes while also having its own personality.

    Here are elements of Snowpiercer, Okja, and all the rest. We have cool creatures, we have anti-capitalism and anti-corporatism, and of course; the humour. The best of all Bong Joon Ho's English-language films, and possibly the funniest out of all of them!

    There are moments of genuine greatness here. A thrilling murder spree, a hauntingly beautiful dance scene. But much of this went over my head. Which is not always a bad thing. I can enjoy something surreal or experimental without fully understanding it as long as it feels thematically coherent. Unfortunately, this did not feel this way. Instead, I felt myself consistently getting pulled out of the movie desperately trying to analyze it.

    Is it about overcoming grief? About gender identity?…
