I can’t remember where I heard about this, but judging by the trailer, Hope by Korean director Na Hong-jin looks pretty good.

Excellent film! Another one this year i was so grateful to see IN A THEATER (others in that category include I Love Boosters, Send Help, etc)
I’ve been really looking forward to that!
I’d also like to plug “Ray Gunn” that my friend and neighbor co-wrote with Brad Bird https://youtu.be/VL-xjzQFWsY
New Brad Bird dropped??
I saw this a week ago in the theatre.
A lot of fun (I’m a huge K cinema fan) with humor, excellent chases and had my attention the whole time.
Not sure if "good" is the word, but it's certainly a wild ride.
Just saw Na Hong-jin’s Hope. Honest review? Act 1: Wow wow wow top 10 monster movie setup OMG these sets; Act 2: Okay, I’ll roll with it; Act 3: WHAT HOW WHY WHO WAAAAAAT. (That said, I’m glad this brand of banana-pants exists, and I’ll take it over Hollywood’s focus-grouped crap every time.)
The last two comments here capture it. Wild and crazy and what?!
