Dare to shoot

Eusebio 2022-04-22 07:01:31

At first, I thought it was a horror thriller.
Later, I thought it was a dark comedy film.
Then, I thought it was a literary film.
Later, I thought it was a political movie.
After watching the entire film, I had a feeling of indecision. But this feeling is not bad, it doesn't feel deliberate, it doesn't feel messy, there is an indescribable feeling.

Before watching the film, I heard that it was a satirical film about the American imperialists. I thought it was a veiled statement, but I didn't expect it to be so obvious, and it was literally saying "md, I am scolding you!" The
government's inaction is chilling, and the same is true when I think of the "Terrorist Live" I watched before. Korean directors dare to shoot, and the word "dare" has already won.
It is clear that it is very easy to find clues, it is clear that it can save people, and it is clear that so many people can not die. The monster was killed by the power of the so-called wanted family. And the so-called army, police, experts, all revolve around an trumped-up virus ass.
Who made Laozi arrogant? Who dares to say that I am wrong? ! If I say there is a virus, it means there is a virus! Not only there, but a big virus! I also used a powerful biochemical weapon to kill this virus! what's wrong? !

The US representative apologized in the final TV news. so what?
If an apology is useful, why do you need the police?

I give 5 stars because it's a good Asian monster movie.
And it's not just a monster movie.

    I didn't expect to be deceived by this name and type for so many years. It should not be said that it is "The Monster of the Han River", but "The Monster of Korea" may be more appropriate. Bright irony and political drama, and the record box office once again makes people think about the public meaning behind it. In contrast to us, the current hit and box office record is actually a pink movie. Sadly, it is not easy to open up the wisdom of the people. The road is long.

    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 is.

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!
