What makes ‘Parasite’ so satisfying is that it commits neither error. It’s an engrossing, stylish and near perfect movie, and its underlying themes go beyond merely pointing out class exploitation to challenge the logic of capital.

"You know what kind of plan that never fails? No plan. No plan at all. You know why? Because life cannot be planned." 'Parasite' is absolutely fantastic. I'm still buzzing how good this movie is.
