Summary: (by CJ Entertainment via www.imdb.com)

  "All unemployed, Ki-taek and his family take
  peculiar interest in the wealthy and glamorous
  Parks, as they ingratiate themselves into
  their lives and get entangled in an unexpected
  incident."

My Comments:

  Very well-made - good direction and acting. It
  is in several reviewer's top lists and also won
  the Palme D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival last
  year.

  Although, I still think the director Bong Joon Ho's  
  "Memories of Murder" is still my favorite of his movies.
