The Host

Visually stunning with a fantastic vibe throughout the film. The host is definitely not without its massive holes and plot holes (or simply I didn't understand them), but it doesn't seem to care as it delivers a truly memorable film. Love the humorous vibe throughout the film despite the grim background, also how it makes fun of social social issues while showcasing some impressive heroism. A terrific performance by the cast and it is understandable why director Bong Joon-Ho is so well received by everyone. Personally , a much better film than Snowpiercer, even though both tried a similar vibe, this one just clicked better.

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 breath for too long, until the male protagonist stabbed the monster and spit it out.

[Nam-il has been watching Gang-du jogging in the disinfectant truck's fumes behind them as they steadily drive along]
Park Nam-il: [to Hie-bong] Why does he have to do that? He's not a little kid.
Park Hie-bong: Let him be. He wants to disinfect himself. He's worried he'll pass the virus onto Hyun-seo.

[the Park siblings are watching a report about them on a TV. One nurse being interviewed has had her voice sped up and her face concealed to protect her identity]
Korean nurse on TV: The blond one, who made direct contact with it. He's the stupidest of all.
Park Nam-il: That bitch. Listen to the mouth on her.
Korean nurse on TV: He pounced on me and slammed me to the floor. I think he gave me arthritis. That's what he's like.
Park Nam-il: I know who she is. Like we can't recognize her through that voice-disguiser?
