[+527, -114] I found it fun.. it was refreshing to see Bong Joon Ho's style of humor have a Hollywood touch.. I enjoyed it
[+242, -50] I really do think the movie's a love it or hate it for people, which is why it's a must watch. I had a friend call it boring while I couldn't find even one scene that I thought was boring and am even going on YouTube to watch fan theories. I'm thinking of going to watch it again.
[+198, -57] One thing's for sure, it's not as enjoyable as 'Parasite' or 'Memories of Murder'
[+54, -30] I'll be honest, it's like a mix of 'Okja' and 'Snowpiercer' but boring. It's definitely not a movie you go in to feel entertained. You'll be yawning throughout if you expect something like 'Parasite.'
[+36, -27] It was just boring for me
[+30, -16] I enjoyed it
[+29, -20] I felt like it was a waste of money because it was so boring
[+28, -32] Fried chicken is a better use of your money
[+28, -23] I liked it?? It was well made. Though I'm sure people of a certain political side may find it mixed ㅎㅎ
[+25, -15] Mickey's girlfriend is so cool
[+24, -17] It was just alright. The male lead's acting was great.
[+21, -11] Sorry but I fell asleep...
[+19, -16] I'm an avid fan of his movies but this one didn't live up to expectations even though I didn't even go into it with any expectations. The characters were so flat, and the story is stuck in that typical box of right versus wrong. The ending also felt rushed and brushed over.
[+16, -9] I saw it on opening day and enjoyed it. Felt like there were several different genres mixed in but I enjoyed Bong Joon Ho's style of humor in a romantic SF setting, and could also draw a lot of parallels to what's happening in our real world right now ㅠ
[+14, -8] Definitely more enjoyable if you wait for it to come to streaming services
