Parasite play all his cards to the "allegory" game. nothing is credible in the movie. only if you see the plot like a metaphore you will end satisfied. it was a weak move (to me) playing all the cards to this allegory.
i cant end the movie because of that, while i see it (and i watch it before oscar nominations and all the circus...) i imagine average and intelectually exhausted people feeling inteligent and intellectual and feeling how this movie in particular make them "think" precisely because everything is so evident and in your face that you dont need to think too much about it in the first place.
it reminded me so much to joseph losey "the servant" (which had the same problem, if you dont play the allegory game all the characters decisions are stupid and unnatural...)
i imagine the hour i left gonna be some kind of confusing plot with a precipited ending that cant even collect all the elements (like the director do in Snowpiercer (another cheap allegory with a non sensical ending...)
and i suspect all the allegory gonna be some kind of bland "classes are bad". (bland but totally powerful to many people, probably that is the reason for oscar and cannes...) anyway, maybe im wrong, i tried two times to end it and i cant do it.
basically i cant play well the allegory game if dont have, at least, some subtleness. wich is dont the case in Parasite.
