The Pitch Black Comedy Threeller on Netflix is disturbing, urgent, and hilarious
By Robert Scucci | Being published
I recently had a great time watching Tim Robinson’s A chair company For Max because it’s always a treat when thrillers come out with comedic intent and actually stick to finding them. I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve never seen it Generosityand billed as a romantic comedy, I found it high time I finally gave it a proper watch after seeing its near 99 percent Tomatoes rating. A Korean movie without English Dubs available on Netflix, watch Bong Joon Ho’s Generosity It’s light work if you can watch TV with subtitles anyway.
Language barrier aside, you need to watch this film if you like your dark comedy, and you’ve earned some of the most despised characters in today’s cinema.
Through its satire, Generosity Will the offensive presentation of wealth disparities and social hierarchies leave you with mixed feelings. Rich people become silent and unknowingly take advantage of innocent victims of schemes in lower middle class families. While our parasitic protagonists certainly come from a place of desperation, you’ll still spend time thinking about how they could literally do anything else to get out of their financial situation than they do in this film.
Fake it till you make it
Generosity First he introduces us to Ki-Woo (Choi Woo-Shik), a young man from the lower middle class who lives with his sister Ki-Jung (Father Kim Ki-Taek (Song kang-ho) and mother Chung-sook (Jang Hye-jin). Living in a basement apartment prone to floods and vandalism, Ki-Woo appears to his friend Min-Hyk (Park Seo-Joon) to fill in as an English teacher for the family’s daughter. rich, DA-HYE (Jung Ji-So). Forging documents and lying about his placement at the university, Ki-Woo, now meets Kevin, soon Choi Yeon-Gyo (Cho Hao-Jeeng), the matriarch of the no-nonsense family.
When Kevin feels like he has job security, he uses the kindness of the park family and bows to his new trust. She recommends that her sister, who now calls herself Jessica, is recognized by an art therapist in the family’s youngest son DA. To deceive both Cho Vion-Gyo and her husband Park Dong-Ik (Lee Sun-Kyun) to unimaginable levels, Kevin and Jessica find other housekeepers so they can bring their parents into action.
Laughing bitterly at their new job situation, the family enters the home, offering every opportunity to exploit the Park family through “personal recommendations”. Spending an unfathomable amount of psychological resources keeping his cover stories, it is only a matter of time before he is caught in the Law.
An opponent is someone who is against him
Generosity it’s a hard pill to swallow for two reasons. First, the Kim family is down on their luck and jumped at the chance to improve their living conditions, even if it didn’t make sense. They come from a very common place of desperation, and they have no logical outlet for their network. When Ki-Woo approaches hy-hyk, he sees an opportunity and creates a plan.
Second, the family of the park is very kind. They are a hardworking house that does not take their wealth lightly. They treat their employees well in order to keep their home and give their children what they deserve. Given their busy lifestyles, they’re also very loyal and trusting of the Kims, but it’s hard to blame them because the docs are paying for places and high-class fraud.
As he wants to join the Kim family, he reveals his true colors and is a bad person. They see the park family as something they can’t turn off. In the real world, it is easy to point the finger at the upper class having everything laid out for them and not sharing the wealth. It is true, however, that they are the most fortunate people who hire them. The Park family does nothing wrong but has worked hard and succeeded, making them sensitive, while the Kim family spends a lot of time and energy to use them when they can harm their situation without harming them.
This is still a joke
With as many dark turns as Generosity it takes, it still plays like a joke. With the Kim family’s antics, we see their PESEKEFFIRE plan solidly, and they finally have to face the consequences. They have a greedy greedy big family, which does no better than people who think it is wrong because those people may have been dealt a better hand in life.
This power of motivation will make you question the contrast with wealth because it flows through the text. The people we should hate are kind, and the people we should root for are scary. It’s a reality check that sounds uninteresting at first, but like a parasite, it quickly takes on a larger narrative when it finishes the film.
Generosity it’s streaming on netflix.
