Parasite reminded me of High and Low, both dealing with similar themes, and how the movies are both shot similarly, when it came to reflecting the poor vs. the rich I felt.

Both have really goot stories, and I would say that although High and Low is the better shot, and better directed movie, Parasite has a better screenplay, in the sense that it builds towards a bigger, more dramatic and emotional ending I felt. Parasite is also more character driven, where as High and Low is a little more plot driven, and I think I like character driven better.

So I think I will go with Parasite. What do you think?



High and Low by a very narrow margin.
I give them both a

Bong Joon-ho was probably inspired by it, see; cowboys and Indians scene.
