Are the scary humans or monsters?

It seems a little late to watch...
but I still have high expectations for this film. I
just watched it, and I feel like, in short, it is just one sentence: it is too ironic!
And it is ironic and merciless, making people feel It's incredible.
When Qiangdou told the police that his daughter was still alive but it was considered nonsense,
I completely understood the director's intention. The government is clearly ignorant!
Hey, such a tragedy, it happened so vigorously and so terribly.
The fate of the family was brought down a tragic path by the mistakes of the authoritative government.
First, the father pulled his daughter's hand by the wrong hand in a panic, causing the daughter to fall into the monster's mouth,
and then someone thought that the father was insane before saying "dead" The daughter's call,
followed by the death of the grandfather due to the negligence of the father, the disappearance of the
aunt and uncle and the last-minute mistake of the uncle...
These seem to be the incompetence of the family, but it just shows that,
A small family, a family of only a few people, can't make their goals come true anyway.
And only with the support of society and the government can they "do not break the rules".
But what about the government?
If the policeman believes Dad Instead of treating him as a madman with a virus,
if the army catches monsters vigorously in time instead of just making a fuss about disinfection and isolation,
if researchers make a conclusion after careful investigation instead of pouring dangerous drugs directly into the Han River,
if. ..
These are actually actions that the government must take when the harm occurs. In
reality, researchers will not be stupid enough to discharge poisons into the river.
And the film is played like this to tell people, don't always think so easily, don't always think so
. is that "nothing will happen",
Don't arbitrarily deny other people's words,
and don't forget that life is precious...

-------Monsters are scary. But after watching the film, I obviously feel that human beings are even more scary.

    The prelude is a bit long, but the plot is pretty good and worth watching.

The Host quotes

  • 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.

  • Park Nam-il: [grabbing a grieving Gang-du by the arm] So you screwed up, huh? I heard everything. You grabbed some other girl's hand?

    [He claws at his brother's head]

    Park Nam-il: You left Hyun-seo on the ground?

    [He takes another swipe at Gang-du but Hie-bong holds him back]

    Park Nam-il: Your own daughter? You call yourself a fucking father?

    [as he says this he manages to kick Gang-du]

    Park Nam-il: You son of a bitch!

    Park Gang-Du: [bawling] I thought it was Hyun-seo's hand!
