What are some good movies that are in theaters currently?
I heard that new movie Parasite is supposed to be really good!
Oh really? How good?
It won the Palme d'Or at Cannes this year.
Ok. So what's it about?
It's about greed and class discrimination threaten the newly formed symbiotic relationship between the wealthy Park family and the destitute Kim clan. It's a korean movie, directed by the renowned Bong Joon Ho.
I've never heard of him. What other movies has he made?
The Host, Snowpiercer, Okja - a lot of really internationally famous films.
I see. Have you seen it yet?
I have and it's great! It's funny, but dark and twisted, and very poignant.
What about some other movies that are out now?
I heard the Joker is wonderful.
Who's in it?
Joaquin Phoenix is supposed to be amazing in it. It's kind of like the origin story of the Batman villian, the joker.
Have you watched it yet? What are your thoughts?
I've heard mixed things about the actual movie, so I've been on the fence about watching it.
What about some family friendly movies?
Abominable is supposed to be a hit with the kids. I heard it's cute and very entertaining for the little ones.
Hmm I see. Doesn't sound like a kids movie title though.
It definitely is! It's an animated movie about a Yeti that also teaches a lot about Chinese culture.
I see. Good to keep in mind. thanks.
No worries!
