Review of Minari (2021) by Tvjerry — 16 Feb 2021
Steven Yeun (The Walking Dead) plays the father of a young Korean immigrant family who moves from California to Arkansas, where he plans to start a farm. Considering this was the 80s, there was surprisingly no racial pushback from this small Southern town.
Instead, they deal with growing his crops and family challenges (including the grandmother who arrives from Korea). The cast, along with director Lee Isaac Chung, has created characters that are real and quietly involving.
It runs longer than needed and never gets especially involving, but it is a low-key, modest human drama.
