Yes, it's brilliant. I haven't seen all of the contenders but of those I have seen, Parasite's by far the best.Really pleased for Parasite smashing it up. Its a really entertaining film that pretty much anyone should enjoy.
The one what?Surprised Parasite is the one to earn universal acclaim. In recent years I thought Shoplifters or something like Burning were around the same quality, if not better.
Oh OK... Well both of those other films have received a heap of praise - Shoplifters won the Palm d'Or a year or two ago, and Burning was universally praised.Foreign language movie.
I think Burning was a better film, but Parasite is probably a more accessible film for the masses.Surprised Parasite is the one to earn universal acclaim. In recent years I thought Shoplifters or something like Burning were around the same quality, if not better.
Oh yeah, the Wailing is absolutely outstanding, the pacing of it is just sublimeThe best S. Korean movie of recent vintage I've seen is The Wailing (been a couple of years now come to think of it). It's horror so no chance of being acknowledged in the mainstream, but few movies have effected a change of mood as drastically as this.
