Great performances with a protagonist that you love to hate. Such a tame albeit dark beginning that devolves into a twisted unpredictable ending.
On a serious note: this was a "canary in the coalmine" type of film depicting the ruthless corruption of guardianships. And that is quite terrifying! Truly my worst fear exemplified on film...

Tonight I watched "The Lie" on Amazon Prime. It's kind of mediocre and slow with shallow character development, not able to connect much to any of them. Maybe that was intentional? Because the slow simmer mediocrity exploded into a bombshell ending that I did NOT see the that coming at all!! 😲

Wow! Parasite is a great ride!!
Although there was some grimness, it's not a horror flick, but a psychological thriller. The film paints with grandiose broad strokes using extravagance to tell a bigger story...a story about social inequality and the gullibility of people, particularly entitled acting rich foks. The story crawls into your mind and leaves you pondering.
PS. Can I just say that I'm sickened by the fact that the rich husband & wife have matching pajamas 🙄
*Disclaimer: if anyone has matching pajamas with their significant other, my apologies 😆
