For every one small thing in this movie that I thought was genuinely interesting or captivating there were about 10 things that made my skin crawl. Adam Driver is the only performer who seems like he actually wants to be there, and fuck knows why, but credit where it's due: he is by far the best thing about the movie. But it's such a disjointed, egotistical mess.

A truly terrible mega pretentious flop of a film that shows how out of touch our elites are, beware of old men talking about Ancient Rome!!! But watching this at Peckhamplex was one hell of a night… as the story/dialogue/aesthetic sensibility got more and more incoherent normal cinema etiquette was completely thrown out the window, ppl were laughing and shouting at the screen, I love a packed out audience experience <3

Saw in theaters, great movie! of course, Bong Joon-ho is a great director and Parasite being one of my favourite movies of all time, it wasn't anywhere near his best to me. it was actually a little bit over the top and chaotic, and I think it would be annoying to some because it does get kind of quippy. But I still think it had a lot of interesting commentary on imperialism and colonization, paired with some classic economic and class issue viewpoints (every movie of his I've seen seems to touch on it at least somewhat). so I recommend it! If anything it definitely got a lot of laughs out of me (and the little alien creatures are so cute oh my goddd)

saw it last night and i was speechless. i know films like this can feel like homework, because of they are positioned as "important", but nobody makes movies like Jonathan Glazer ("Birth" and "Under The Skin" are incredible) and i do think this film is really important. i felt sick to my stomach and i can't get it out of my head.
