Finally saw Parasite, and it ruled. Was not what I expected at all. For once I avoided marketing and reviews, and I went in expecting a full on horror film.

Uncut Gems.
Pretty incredible movie. I didn't really know what to expect (except the ending had been kind of spoiled for me), I guess just kind of like a version of Rounders with gems? It definitely wasn't that. Like right from the jump with the flying around the gem and universe and into an Ethiopian mine. The sound/music is incredible in the entire movie. The whole theater was squirming from the constant hum of the synths and then the chatter and screaming and background noise. I honestly don't know if I have ever seen a movie that SOUNDS like this. There's only like 3 "quiet" scenes in the movie and they all have a tenuous connection.
I really loved it, but I don't know if I would watch it again. I can't overstate how good the sound was at setting the mood, but the mood was 2 hours on the verge of a fucking panic attack.
