Review of Parasite (2019) by Bwad3000 — 09 Feb 2020
Disappointingly overrated - the screenplay and directing was frequently painfully heavy-handed and awkwardly overzealous in its attempts to be a meaningful and important film about class. Reading though Korean explanations about the attempts at symbolism in the film that non-Koreans would miss reinforced this conclusion.
But the film is worth watching for some well-acted scenes depicting different levels of Korean life which were enjoyable.
