Gisaengchung (2019)
Very interesting!
The first half of the movie was slow but not in the bad way. It builds up each character, gives you an interesting story to keep your attention and shows the true nature of each of our main characters, all before the second half of the movie which is packed with tense moments that made me want to hold my own breath and ends with exactly what I wanted the story to end with, a great conclusion with a satisfying ending.
The music and acting throughout was great and made each scene shine as bright as it could. Overall, Parasite is a really good film and was really fun to watch, very interesting and would highly recommend!

A great zombie movie!
The prologue is interesting and sets up the story well. Gives us information on what is happening in the area, how it is effecting business and how even animals can become zombies. Due to the information we are told about what had happened in that area, we can already start theorising the cause of what's turning humans and animals into zombies.
Overall the story was great. Good character development, some good pay-offs, great relationships made along the way and it really allows you to connect with most of the main characters.
Towards the end things get very difficult for the characters we learn to love, giving us many emotional scenes and a bittersweet ending. To be honest, the ending almost made me tear up.
There are some moments where things happen because they need to, such as the tunnels randomly coming every 2 minutes when they needed it despite being gone for half the movie and then never to be seen again. If you can look past those things you get a entertaining zombie movie I think many would enjoy and some may even love.
There is a sequel and I don't feel like I will watch it. This movie has a great conclusion and I feel as though the sequel won't be able to live up to the original at all. I still may find it entertaining, but I believe there's a high chance it'll leave a bad mark on the conclusion of the original film.

Good but could be better
The prologue to this movie really sets the story going without hesitation. It quickly gets you into the story with enough information that you need.
The music was good throughout the whole movie and were played at the right moments.
I would say that the characters were interesting and played by good actors/actresses. They used the tools they had to their advantage, their actions/reactions were realistic and for the most part they think logically, unlike stereotypical zombie movies/shows.
There are some occasions where there are flaws in the story such as the main female characters fear of heights.
Overall it was an entertaining movie with an interesting story that I really enjoyed.
