This is a true masterpiece about several important contemporary issues. It is an amazing story showing how a psychopath could manipulate rise of populism and online trolling to fulfill his own agenda. There is also an element of underlying class conflict. I decided to watch this on Netflix because of many positive reviews on IMDB and I was not disappointed at all. Every aspect of this movie is excellent. Especially the acting skills of the actor playing the main character are a treat to watch. Highly recommended.
Well that is putting it mildly now isn't it? The answer is yes to that rhetorical question. The beginning is laying the foundation or at least tells us with what sort of individual we are dealing with. So it may not be the easiest sell for a main character (having empathy for him, all considering), but at least we know. Something that cannot be said about other characters in this.
And is is easy to be duped. With a mirror scene of the one we see at the beginning the movie gives us an evolution - or devolution I reckon. Not an easy movie to watch and very daring in a lot of regards. But human nature can be wicked. Interesting story no matter if or you agree with what is happening or not ...

You need a few things to go your way, but if they do, and you have the tools of technology, then any amount of chaos can ensue and who knows what political outcomes might develop, there's certainly a few questionable one's around at the moment.
Refreshingly original, relevant and soon to be copied.

After Oscar nominated Corpus Christi, we receive continuation of Suicide room. I called that movie body ,,Polish Parasite''. The screenplay is original, leading actor is great, Agata Kulesza, as always delivers another remarkable performance. The subject of hate on the Internet and amongst people is very current/matches our crazy times of Internet addiction. Highly recommended.
I can't believe I hadn't heard or seen anything regarding this movie before. Great direction, great cinematography, great script, great performances.
Sometimes, some excellent movies go unnoticed due to being artistic or it just didn't connect with most audiences. But this film does not have those problems. I guess sometimes, unfortunately, it all comes down to luck.
Looking back, this definitely reminds me of peak House of Cards. The morally deplorable protagonist, the manipulation, the gradual descent, the political commentary. The only thing missing are the fourth wall breaks.
It genuinely baffles how some similar inferior films get more attention and praise than this one. A very well hidden gem that will make sure more people hear about.
