not bad but not the best

Rating: 8/10 (11 February 2020)

The film is not bad, it opened the way for me to the world of features of South Korean cinema. but I can't give it 10/10. I expected a lot more from a film with such a buzz around it and four Oscars, two of them for "best Director" and "best film". the idea and message are clear, but I'm only talking about the first hour of the movie. somewhere in the middle of the story begins to gain momentum incomprehensible to me, and the genre of the film changes in the opposite direction. the ending of the film is no less strange. apparently, these are the features of South Korean cinema that I could not understand, alas. I put this film 8/10 and believe that it received this rating from me as undeservedly as its 4 Oscars.. .
