Science fiction commercial films can also achieve the effect of political satire. Koreans are really obsessed with criticizing conquest and the state machine, but it also shows how loose the censorship...

B+ / The metaphorical level of the overall play wants to rely on the memory of murder, but the political and class satire of the helpless and exposed and the excellent depiction of the bottom group portraits comparable to mothers are not as good as Yuzi. Combined with a very stereotypical Korean performance and sensational mode, the first hour or so was a disaster. However, the super five-star control of the third act saved the whole film. The rhythm of several darkest moments and the smooth...

Bong Joon Ho is a genius. At first I thought it was a satirical comedy dressed in horror, but I couldn't laugh when I laughed. A lonely hero who was forced into a desperate situation, rode alone for thousands of miles to save his relatives, broke through many difficulties, and was full of strength, and finally caught the monster in the Han River, and shot... a mouthful of phlegm. He also vomited on his shoes. The fate of the little people in the big background is tragic and ironic. He held his...

There are indeed a lot of metaphors, and in general they belong to literary films. The criticism of the American emperor and the South Korean government is very obvious, and the left-wing stance, the Korean people at the end of the film have stopped watching the news broadcast. This piece and Kim Jong Il planned "Pyongyang Monster" to form a...

some perspective
1. Contrast of power: the confrontation between the Kangdou family and the US military doctors and government forces stationed in South Korea. The Kang Doo family not only has to hunt down monsters to find girls, but also to avoid the pursuit of government forces; at the same time, the Kang Doo...

Anti-Hollywood Hollywood Genre
"Monster of the Han River" breaks through the classic model of American Hollywood monster films. It uses Hollywood's film grammar to combine oriental family ethics, national narrative of national trauma and the horror consciousness of monster images. Through the marginal colors and bottom-level...

Park Gang-Du: [Strapped to an operating table, his head encased in a strange looking protractor-like contraption with a needle attached to it] You're talking about a virus that doesn't exist. Mister, they said there's no virus. So, you should let me go now.
[He starts to sob]
Park Gang-Du: My daughter Hyun-seo is under Wonhyo bridge.
[Panicked]
Park Gang-Du: I need to go quickly. Please let me go. Okay, mister, huh?
[Suddenly, angrily]
Park Gang-Du: You shitheads! You bastards!
[Panicking desperately again]
Park Gang-Du: Please, mister, I beg you, let me go. I'll give you my food stand, okay? I'll give the rights to you.
[One of the doctors begins drawing a pencil mark on either side of Gang-du's forehead]
Park Gang-Du: What are you doing? Please, mister! Wait!
[We hear drilling, and Gang-du half-cries, half-quavers]
Park Gang-Du: Fuck! This is driving me crazy! I really need to get to Hyun-seo!
[He hyperventilates]
Park Gang-Du: Mister! Please, save me! What is this? Please!
[as the needles edge further to his head, Gang-du sobs hysterically]
Park Gang-Du: Hyun-seo, I'm sorry. Daddy...

Park Hie-bong: I received a complaint from Mat Number 4. Their squid had only nine legs. Did you eat one?
Park Gang-Du: No.
Park Hie-bong: Don't deny it. Why touch other people's things? Think of it from the customer's perspective. A squid. The torso tastes delicious, but the legs, especially the longest one, has something special, right?
[He pulls a half eaten squid leg out of the pocket of Gang-du's hoodie]
Park Hie-bong: [Thrusting a tray into his son's arms] Take this to Mat Number 4. Tell them it's on the house.
