   > Granted, nobody writing in English has yet put forward a convincing explanation of what Parasite meant to say about the condition of the working class in South Korea. For example, why is the poor family defeated by simple paying tasks such as folding pizza boxes, but when they begin to infiltrate the CEO’s family by posing as American-educated art therapists and the like, they suddenly become as competent as the Mission: Impossible squad?

     @lain The film kinda felt like it fell apart during and after the birthday scenes. The whole basement thing came off as unnecessary as well, but that might just be me.

     @lain @sun A poor guy murdered a rich guy in cold blood out of anger. Therefore its about the evils of capitalism. according to brainlet progressives. It was an OK movie. I think people read way too much into it.
