One of the best films I have seen to date.

Rating: 10/10 (22 April 2020)

Solely based on social inequality and the consequences of capitalism, 'Parasite' is a film that demonstrates indirect friction between opposite social classes. Bong Joon Ho was writing in an attempt to reveal that Korea isn't as glamorous as one would think this is shown from the massive social gap between the Parks and Kims (from one of his press interviews 'but the relative wealth between rich and poor is widening. The younger generation, in particular, feels a lot of despair'). I think this is quite ironic as we saw the younger individuals were more likely to proceed into becoming slightly successful as they were the ones that secured the jobs for their whole family, also going back to the statement about the poor widening, but what stood in the way was another poor family who had the same idea but in the end both had different morals which ultimately lead to the demise of both poor families. This is just one of the reasons why this film was so incredible because even just talking about it sounds poetic and satisfying.
