A naked, bold insight of the vulnerabilities, shame of human skeleton. A manifestation of what trauma can do to one's daily life, love life and career.

Not just a story of an aspiring comedian stalked by a psycho, repeat stalker who is female. It's more than that. The screenplay is so good that It will make u think how u would act, react, feel if u were in the place and situation of Donny Dunn, the protagonist who is a mobile character study consists of trauma, insecurity, vulnerability, shame, hunger for validation and appreciation, struggle, suggestive empathy, inclination to daily life drama derived from lack of love and mundane life. It will shock u in a way that u will feel ur skin of normalized pretentiousness is being peeled off with a diamond blade. It will slap u, enlighten u and help u to discover the dark, unexplored side of ur character.

Richard Gadd as Donny Dunn did a fabulous job. Overcoming ur trauma is one thing. But restarting the life by writing and acting ur own traumatised self is totally on a new level which can not be matched or touched easily. Jessica Gunning as Martha Scott did her best to provide a disturbing and neurotic experience. Tom Goodman-Hill as Darrien was a good cast for an influential, manipulating and dominating person. Overall, the whole team including the directors, cast, writer made this job done beautifully.

8.5/10.

I enjoyed it thoroughly. Though it seemed a sci-fi after watching the trailer, but it contains more than that. Besides sci-fi elements, It icludes drama, thrill, parody, romance and feel good vibe. Many people are complaining that Bong Joon Ho lost his focus midways but I think he didn't want to make a full pack sci-fi movie. He just made the cinema he inteded to make. He wanted to show the interaction, tension and drama between the characters in a surreal world, that's it. He succeeded in making the characters significant, mysterious, recognizable and somthing you would care for. & for me this is cinema. I don't need a sci-fi havoc or a scientifically proven, theoritically correct futuristic innovation. I need this.

The actors did a fabulous job OMG. Robert Pattinson, Tony Collette just stole the show and my heart as well. Mark Ruffalo, Naomi Ackie, Anamaria Vartolomei & others also did well.

The design of the Creepers was so cute, Awwww. I liked them a lot. One of the cutest aliens I have ever seen. The set design, Spacecraft design and specially the new planet's environment was APT.

The technical side, Camera work and cinematography were brilliant. It will give you a surreal experience.

I wanted to give it a 7.5/10 but as it isn't receiving the appreciation it deseres & IMDB doesn't accept fraction rating, I m giving it a Solid 8.

Is there anything better than Seinfeld? I don't think so.

This show created a high benchmark that can't be touched by anyone in near future. I liked the character George. This character was played beautifully by Jason Alexander the Great. Elaine & Kramer are also very good. I loved them too.

The only bad thing about Seinfeld is Seinfeld, Jerry Seinfeld. He can't act. But it didn't create that much problem watching it as it was a sitcom.

Every episode was refreshing. Script was tight and engaging. Direction was superb. I wonder how could they manage to maintain the standard for long 9 seasons!!

It was a milestone in TV history for sure.
