Parásitos

A great film about the Kims’ infiltration into the lives of the Park family. I had no idea that a Korean film could be so entertaining. Throughout those 132 minutes, to my amazement, not a single Korean started overacting. The story was so excellently written that I wasn’t bored for a second. I was even sorry when it was over, which doesn’t happen to me very often. A perfect treat! (25.10.2019)

It's been a long time since I've come across a script as original as this film. Parasite is an inscrutable darkly humorous social satire, tinged with the thriller genre, which at the same time skillfully hits the tastes of contemporary audiences. To the resonant sounds of evocative music from the Far East, I have an unwavering feeling that once again entertainment has merged with art, which is not something you see every day in the world of cinema. I won't beat around the bush, I simply had a tremendous amount of fun, and I definitely won't stop at just one viewing. (95%) (03.02.2021)

The moment we abandon the attempt of genre pigeonholing, which is not even possible, because Parasite has something of everything, this is mainly a proof that it is still possible to make a completely novel, unpredictable, funny, touching, but also at times chilling and shocking film. In a nutshell: an emotional roller coaster. The story gradually builds up and serves up such twists and turns that you will be left with your wits about them, and you won't even dare to guess what kind of finale it will lead you to – for me it is bittersweet.
