"So, there's no need for a
plan. You can't go wrong with no plans. We don't need to make a
plan for anything.
It doesn't matter what will happen next. Even
if the country gets destroyed or sold out, nobody cares.
Got
it?" - Ki-Taek
Why watch this? ...
it starts to build, gets crazier,
crazier, until the
jaw-dropping finale.
Plot Summary:
The impoverished Kim family schemes to become employed by the
wealthy Park family, eventually infiltrating their household one
by one by posing as unrelated, highly qualified individuals.
This deception allows the Kims to enjoy the luxurious lifestyle
of the Parks, living off their resources without the Parks
realizing their true intentions. However, this carefully
constructed plan faces a threat when an unexpected discovery
within the Park household destabilizes the Kims' newfound
comfort.
Dad's Preview:
You'll need to get used to subtitles to watch this Korean film
(called a "black comedy thriller") about a poor Korean family in
Seoul. The entire family schemes their way into the employment
of a wealthy family, the Parks. When the Parks go on vacation,
the Kim's party in the luxurious home. That is just the
beginning! After that we are taken on a rollercoaster ride into
the expected, bordering on surreal. This is the first
non-English film to win the Oscar for Best Picture. It's
that good!
