First reactions to Bong Joon-Ho’s upcoming Mickey 17 were consistently positive.
The writer and director of ‘Parasite’ and ‘Snowpiercer’ helmed the sci-fi thriller. It “follows the story of Mickey 17, an ‘expendable’ who serves as an expendable employee on a human expedition to colonize the ice world of Niflheim,” reads the film’s synopsis. “After an iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of its memories intact.”
A recently test screening of the film received a positive response. One response has claimed it is a clever, political film with aspects of the Korean director’s signature style. Robert Pattinson delivers a hilarious performance in his dual roles, while Mark Ruffalo and Toni Collette deliver fantastic supporting roles.
Mickey 17 aims to offer stunning production quality with an emphasis on practical effects over CGI.
