Mickey 17 | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

As in Parasite, Mickey 17 shows director Bong quickly shifting gears, twirling between satire and social commentary.

Mickey 17, explores the question of who counts as human with a little more humor than Blade Runner.

To give the film its due credit, there is a positive side to this whirlwind of half-formed notions that the film tries to maintain as a structured narrative: it is never boring.

Far from his strongest work, but any amount of Bong Joon Ho is still a big win for cinema.

Whether inspired by the book or current politics, Mickey 17 sadly proves we are past the point of cartoonish caricatures. The tone was diluted and commentary too heavy handed to be as distant as the sci-fi genre can offer.
