Just like most movie goers, I didn't know what the plot was about. Despite the urge to google it, I stayed away. Now after watching it I realized I still wouldn't have been prepared for what was ahead. A fast paced thriller centered around two families. Like two sides of a coin, they're polar opposites, yet they are crucial for the coin to spin.
Along with the unnerving feeling you have trying to figure out this movie, it's also filled with a lot humor, thrill and some family drama with a social message that is cleverly stitched into this feature. Brilliant acting and amazing set décor and intricately designed sequences make this a classic on its own.
A masterpiece by director Bong Joon Ho. He has his own directorial style and this movie is probably the best of them all. Adopting certain aspects from all his other movies while creating a uniquely critical film for ages to come, he has added his name into the directors hall of fame. He won the Oscars for best director, best original screenplay, best international film and best picture matching a 67 year old record set by Walt Disney.
If you plan to watch it, don't read about it, just latch on to the host and don't let go.
