My watch history
Mickey 17
Hmm. Didn’t meet my expectations, but it was mostly OK, I guess?
I feel like Bong Joon Ho’s films normally leave you room to think for yourself about the contents, but Mickey 17 doesn’t really. Everything’s mostly cut and dry, or explained via exposition.
Dragged in the middle, and had a bunch of little side stories that didn’t really seem to add that much. And the US political stuff just felt clumsy and out of place… I’m here for sci-fi not SNL skits.
