This movie is trully great and of extremely significance, not just because of the great cinematography, directing and acting, but also for basically raising korean cinema to a worldwide status by being not just the first korean film, but the first foreign film to win the Oscar of best picture, paving the way for other foreign works.

This movie will make you feel all sorts of way, specially considering the huge tone shift halfway through it and an ending that will most likely throw you off and leave you wondering what the hell just happened, but I believe that was intentional and something that sets this movie apart, making you tense, although super engaged in what's going on, with this looming feeling that anything can happen. I honestly praise Joonho for his courage of making such bold decisions for this story.

All the characters are layered and feel human. They are flawed and even do some questionable stuff, but that doesn't stop us from rooting for them, specially the poor family, since the acting and the script allow us to understand their motivations and struggles. The plot revolves around a quite old, but still relevant topic: class conflict, which is aproached in a very nuanced manner. The story is full of symbolisms and does a wonderful job of juxtaposing two opposite points of view, making you question who's the real parasite.

I admit that you might be confused after watching Parasite, but I firmly believe this is one of its charms: it leaves wondering and sticks to you for a very long time. I strongly recommend you watch this film and then try watching videos dissecting it and also interviews with Bong Joonho about it, then you can reflect about its message and form your own conclusions, since I think there are many elements in this movie that are opened to interpretation. If you're not a person that likes a dense, complicated plot that will require you use your brain to decipher it, though, this is definitely not for you.
