Starring Robert Pattinson, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo, Mickey 17 is the highly anticipated darkly comedic adaptation of Edward Ashton’s novel, and South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon Ho’s first feature since his multi Oscar-Winning film Parasite. 

But he (Bong Joon Ho) remains something unusual, a humane satirist, capable of playing suffering and death for grim laughs without negating the idea that every life matters.
