Feng Junhao subverts Hollywood's traditional monster-themed disaster films. Family affection, political satire, social criticism and black humor alternately appear, making people addicted to watching. Song Kang-ho and Bae Doo-na's acting skills are praised, and the soundtrack is enough. With the absence of the lone hero, the slow-motion preparations are only exchanged for hilarious and poignant mistakes. The powerlessness of the little people is in stark contrast to the fragility and the...

Rewatching it is like watching a new movie. Feng Junhao is in trouble with animals? However, this is not a simple animal, but a monster that symbolizes the blending of the boundaries between humans and animals (or that humans exert more influence). In Haraway, as another representation of the post-Anthropocene, we will coexist with this trouble (the Crusus monster) that makes us a powerful tool for critiquing the capitalist era. After the monster forces society into a state of emergency...

3.5 On the surface, it looks like the process of a foolish family fighting against aliens bravely, but it is actually more like a fable written by Feng Junhao with absurd and even humorous brushstrokes; the great point is that it was born in Hollywood but completely filmed. There are indeed two brushes in my own ideas and styles, and I can gain a firm foothold in entertainment and depth at the same time. It is not as empty as "Yuzi"; compared with the monsters that spit bones, the morbid social...

A politically metaphorical satire in the garb of the monster disaster genre. The real monster of the Han River is the US military stationed in South...

The homeless who appeared mysteriously, the incendiary bombs and rockets of youth, are too romantic. No matter how pessimistic, look at their history, all struggles will not be in vain, and all sacrifices will be remembered. While watching it, what came to mind the most was not the local incident, but the 1992 Los Angeles defense. Whether it's a spectacle of a genre, or a sarcastic humor, it's all just skin, and bravery is the base color. At every fork in the trail, they took the exact opposite...

In the first movie I watched with Brother Runhe, he said that monsters are also lonely. After thinking about it for many years, although I think Koreans are so stupid, 오빠 always has some weird ideas, but his special Korean side is very...

after watching
The biggest impression is: too dark.
In the movie, the government is just like a decoration. There are no effective measures to deal with. After spraying the chemical agent, it is clear that it is a mistake of judgment and there is no virus.
The director seems to want to criticize the system, but he...

Only the crumbs of the shell
The reason why most people give high marks in the comments is metaphor and sarcasm. It's really a plus for a movie, but it's just the icing on the cake.
A movie can't do the most basic things well, lacks basic logic in many places, and doesn't even lay the foundation well, so it gets high marks for...

US Doctor in Morgue: Mr. Kim,
[running a finger along the counter]
US Doctor in Morgue: I hate dust more than anything.
Young Korean Doctor: Oh, I will clean again.
US Doctor in Morgue: You don't have to clean up now. Why don't you dump this first?
Young Korean Doctor: That's formaline.
US Doctor in Morgue: Formaldehyde, to be precise. To be even more precise, dirty formaldehyde. Every bottle is coated with layers of dust. Pour 'em into the sink.
Young Korean Doctor: Excuse me?
US Doctor in Morgue: Just empty every bottle to the very last drop.
Young Korean Doctor: It's just - They are toxic chemicals, and the regulations state...
US Doctor in Morgue: Pour them right down the drain, Mr. Kim.
Young Korean Doctor: If I pour them in the drain, they'll run into the Han River.
US Doctor in Morgue: That's right. Let's just dump them in the Han River.
Young Korean Doctor: But, you know, this is not just any toxic chemicals...
US Doctor in Morgue: The Han River is very broad, Mr. Kim. Let's try to be broad-minded about this. Anyway, that's an order. So, start pouring.

Park Nam-il: [Points his gun precariously at Gang-du, who is sitting on the other side of the room, sound asleep] Look at that... Isn't that amazing? In this situation?
Park Nam-Joo: Wake him up, there's no time.
Park Hie-bong: Let him sleep a minute. He needs to sleep every so often.
Park Nam-il: Should we leave him here? He's no help anyway.
Park Hie-bong: Kids, wait a minute. Sit down. In your view, is Gang-du really so pathetic?
Park Nam-il: Yup.
Park Nam-Joo: Yes.
Park Hie-bong: You wouldn't know it, but he was a really smart kid. For example, when he was two, he'd sit in front of the village store, and everyone walking by would ask him directions. That's how smart he looked. As you know, when he was young, I was out of my mind, hardly ever coming home, staying out all night. And this poor boy with no mother, he must have been so hungry. Going around, doing seo-ri all the time. Raising himself an organic farm. Whenever he got caught, he'd get beaten up. In this way, he lacked protein when he needed it most. So that's why, every now and then, he dozes off like a sick rooster. I think something up there...
[He gestures to Gang-du's brain]
Park Hie-bong: ...must have gone wrong too.
[Nam-il starts as he nearly falls asleep]
Park Hie-bong: Have any of you heard it? The heartbreak of a parent who's lost a child... When a parent's heart breaks, the sound can travel for miles. So I really need to say this to you. Be as nice to Gang-du as you can. Don't scold him, okay?
