Superb

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2020)

Aside from the film's encapsulating theme of socio-economic disparity, Bong Joon-ho achieves a Hitchcock-like presence that will have you at the edge of your seat. Suspense, comedy, and drama fall short in describing the intersectional and multimodal genre of this on-screen Román a clef. Setting the tone for the 2020's, Parasite is internationally relatable, aesthetically pleasing, and witty - "we all have a crazy family" comes to life as more than just a phrase in this two-hour phenomenon of the decade.
