Directed by Bong Joon-ho in 2019, this South Korean masterpiece stars talents such as Song Kang-ho and Lee Sun-kyun. It tells the gripping story of a poor family who cleverly infiltrate a rich household. After revisiting it, thanks to a friend's suggestion that it might be overrated, I'd continue to argue that it's a near perfect cinematic treasure:

• Class Dynamics: The film brilliantly contrasts the lives of the affluent Park family and the struggling Kims. It's a thought-provoking look at social divides, exploring the complexities of their circumstances.

• Engaging and Thoughtful: 'Parasite' balances big ideas with incredible entertainment. Its gripping plot and genre-blending narrative ensure you'll never get bored.

• Visual Storytelling: The power of the film lies in its visuals. Years later, certain scenes still linger in my mind, a testament to its powerful storytelling.

• Beyond Good and Evil: The film delves into systemic societal issues and steers clear of simplistic moral judgements. It's a study of human behavior, not painting the rich as evil or the poor as saints.

Parasite is phenomenal not only on first viewing, but also on re-watching, revealing many intricate details.

If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend you try and watch with as little information about it as possible. The brilliance of Bong Joon-ho's work makes me eager to see his next movie.

Parasite is a film that resonates deeply, making it a must-see for any film lover.
