This is an old movie so probably no one is gonna read this review, but writing Imdb reviews has been a hobby of mine for a while now. If you are not put off by gore, dark subject matters (suicide among others) and fat jokes, and if you like dark comedy, then congratulations, you have hit the jackpot! This movie is perfect for you. Even if you are put off by the aforementioned things, then you have also hit the jackpot cuz this movie freaking rocks. It really does. Has the tightest script I've ever seen, and so fugging funny that you might want to pause the movie for a moment just to laugh. If you are looking for a good comedy, you have come to the right place.
Bong Joon Ho is slowly becoming my favorite director. His movies sometimes get criticism for being too on the nose or in your face about its message, but that's what activism is all about, right? What's the point of making a movie about hard-pressed issues if people take way too long to even figure out what the message is, or don't even get it at all? But I digress. This guy is a visual genius. I watched Parasite before Okja, and yet I was even more impressed with the visuals in this movie. Can't go into details, but there are scenes in this movie that are so visceral and gut wrenchingly beautiful that I can't forget. But still, there are parts that are weaker than others; especially the English speaking scenes. But the humor, the visuals, the story and the characters just make up for it.
