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.
