Just saw “Mickey 17.” I loved it. The plot and tone felt like a mix between “Okja” and “Snowpiercer,” two of my favorite Bong Joon-ho films. There are some details that will almost certainly date the movie in the future — the desperate worshippers of an egomaniacal, spacefaring corporate politician wear red hats; the omnipresent camera crew glorifying the cruel leader carry ring lights. But it’s a funny, clever and original examination of ethical issues that feel realer than typical sci-fi.

Just watched this too. Love the satirical approach. Dark, comedic, philosophical, sci-fi, has all the elements I like

Great observations kaufman. Not seen the movie though just the trailer. I can say it does speaks of some crazy future(sci-fi) politics and the rest.

Watched it yesterday too! Was really good, although heavy-handed in places as you say
