Source text - English To say that I was compelled by Parasite from start to finish is an understatement; its filming style with tracking shots are enthralling. Having watched several Korean films during the London Korean Film Festival, I was familiar with the usual genres employed in such films but Parasite seemed to defy them all! Parasite is comedic, in a quirky way, it is also a thriller, straddles class divisions and also depicts a family tale amongst other genres and is therefore likely to appeal to all ages.
Parasite truly deserves to be watched in a cinema to appreciate its nuances and the stylish cinematography. As a summary, to avoid spoilers, Parasite tells the tale of the interaction between the Park family and the Kim’s, an unemployed family, whose contrasting worlds collide with long lasting consequences.
[...]Bong Joon-Ho manages to pique the audience’s interest with brightly lit shots coupled with the effective use of indoor space, and it is surprising to realise, after the film’s 2 hour 12 minute length, that most of the scenes occur within the Park family’s home. The mundane elements of domesticity are displayed with an intriguing perspective showcasing Bong Joon-Ho’s flair. It is a slow burner but you will revel in its beauty and ingenuity as Parasite convinces that it operates solely on one level but it is in fact multi-layered and depicts social realism with empathy and pathos.
The cast are beguiling to watch, every facial movement and action is accentuated, even the mere act of walking up or down stairs can convey hidden meaning, which the camera fragments. Levels of unease are also created by virtue of that effective use of space with unusual camera angles and dramatic weather conditions ratcheting up that sensation. There is a surreal nature to Parasite, which its score emphasises, and furthermore the film adopts elements of the absurd devised in such an ingenious way which is truly cinematic magic. Parasite’s apparent eeriness will certainly keep you riveted and would not feel alien to the Twilight Zone school of filmmaking.
The actors are very impressive and add breadth to their roles creating relatability whilst seeming effortlessly cool. When Ki-Woo and Ki-Jeong Kim were working within the Park family home as private tutors they certainly epitomised this level of nonchalant, understated authority creating an aura of mysticism with the unspoken, almost mythical, tutoring techniques employed. Quite simply, the actors Park So-Dam and Choi Woo-Sik, as Ki-Woo and Ki-Jeong, are compelling to watch in the different directions that Parasite follows and they carry these performances seamlessly thereby inviting the audience to be on their side.
[...]Parasite is a remarkable piece of extremely skilful filmmaking, it is simply a must see film, and so I am looking forward to re-watching the film on its UK general release date.
Translation - Haitian-Creole Di mwen te kaptive pa Parazit depi nan kòmansman rive nan fin se egzajere; estil tounaj al ak plan swiv yo kaptivan. Mwen te gade plizyè fim Koreyen pandan Festival sinema koreyen nan Lond, mwen te abitye ak estil abityèl yo itilize nan fim sa yo, men Parazit te sanble defye tout moun! Parazit se yon komedi, nan yon fason spesifik, li se tou yon thriller (yon estil), li travèse divizyon klas yo epi tou li montre yon istwa fanmi, pami lòt estil, se poutèt sa li gen anpil chans fè plezi ak tout laj.
Parazit reyèlman merite pou gade nan sinema pou apresye nuans li yo ak sinematografi elegant. Kòm rezime, pou evite spoilers, Parazit rakonte istwa a nan entèraksyon ant fanmi Park la ak Kim yo, yon fanmi ki pap travay, ki gen monn konparan ki fè kolizyon ak konsekans ki dire lontan.
[...] Bong Joon-Ho reyisi pwovoke enterè piblik ak yon plan byen klere, ansanm ak itilizasyon efikas nan espas entèn, epi li etonan pou wè, apre 2 èdtan ak 12 minit fim nan, ke pi fò nan sèn yo fèt andedan kay fanmi Park la. Eleman banal nan lavi domestik yo parèt ak yon pèspektiv entrigan ki montre talan Bong Joon-Ho a. Li se yon fim lan, men ou pral pran plezi nan bote li ak entèlijans li. Parazit konvenk ke li travay sou yon sèl nivo, men an reyalite li se plizyè aspè e li montre reyalis sosyal avèk senpati ak pathos.
Aktè yo atiran pou gade, chak mouvman ak aksyon nan vizaj se aksantye, menm zak pou monte oswa desann eskalye yo ka transmèt yon siyifikasyon kache, ki kamera yo fragmante. Nivo malèz yo kreye tou akoz itilizasyon efikas espas la a ak ang kamera etranj ak kondisyon metewolojik dramatik ki ogmante sansasyon sa a. Gen yon nati sireyèl nan Parazit, ke mizik li yo mete aksan, epi anplis de sa, fim lan adopte kèk eleman nan absid la ki fèt nan yon fason tèlman enjenye ki se vrèman yon maji sinematografik. Etranj aparan Parazit asire w'ap kenbe ou kaptive epi ou pa pwal santiw etranj nan lekòl Twilight Zone nan.
Aktè yo trè enpresyonan epi ajoute amplitid nan wòl yo, kreye kapasite didantifikasyon epi an menm tan yo sanble san gran efò. Lè Ki-Woo ak Ki-Jeong Kim t ap travay nan kay fanmi Park la kòm pwofesè prive, yo sètènman montre nivo otorite endiferan ak sekrè sa a, kreye yon aura mistik ak teknik leson patikilye yo itilize, prèske mitik. Tou senpleman, aktè Park So-Dam ak Choi Woo-Sik, kòm Ki-Woo ak Ki-Jeong, konvenkan pou gade nan diferan direksyon ke Parazit swiv yo epi yo reyalize pèfòmans sa yo pafètman, kidonk se konsa yo kaptive piblik lan pou rete bò kote yo.
[...] Parazit se yon pyès remakab nan sinema trè abil, li se tou senpleman yon fim kew pa dwe pèdi, e konsa mwen ap chèche pou gade fim sa yon lòt fwa ankò nan dat lansman jeneral nan Wayòm-Uni.
