Review by Pairic

Mickey 17: Clones, a bit reminiscent of Moon by Duncan Jones. Mickey has signed up as an expendable on a starship expedition to a colony planet. It means the scientists on board can test how well he reacts to radiation, to diseases, they test him to destruction, they can just print off a nw Mickey. Eventually they reach the planet and Mickey 17 has an accident and is assumed dead. But he makes his way back to the landed colony ship only to find that Mickey 18 had been printed off. That's a No No as Multiples are illegal.. A satire, a black comedy, a bit of space opera. Some well imagined alien creatures. The starship's interior is to some extent inspired by the Nostromo and the expedition leader might well be an amalgam of Trump and Musk. There are some really gruesome death scenes which the comedy elements just about manage to leaven. Some scenes are overlong and could have been cut to provide more information on the Religious Cult who is also sponsoring the mission. Not up to the standards of Parasite but well worth watching. Written, Produced, and Directed by Bong Joon-ho. 7.5/10.
