The very first Bong Joon ho film I remember seeing was The Host. It was a film about parasites. So Naturally I assumed Parasite to be similar, however this film is not about the literal parasites. Its actually two movies, a heist movie of sort and a horror movie, packed into one, with a very abrupt transition which everyone will love. I’m sure everyone would have heard about how great the movie is. The trailer shown here is full of the words “Masterpiece” and “The greatest movie of the decade” which is sort of true, a little over hyped for sure, but great watch no less.

Minority Report
One of Tom Cruise’s classic sci-fi movies. Minority Report is a sci-fi thriller with plenty of action and Tom Cruise running. Not very rewatchable, but a must watch.
The Terminal
The Terminal is a great, highly rewatchable feel good movie. Tom Hanks performance with a sort of Bulgarian accent is awesome. A must watch!
The Game
The Game is quite a unique movie concept. A thrilling movie to watch all the way. Didn’t even know it was a David Fincher movie which I was watching it.
Wall Street
Before Wolf of Wall Street, we had Wall Street. But don’t expect the same level of acting and directing from this movie. Its a good movie, not great. So watch it as a time passer or if you like Michael Douglas or Charlie Sheen.
12 Angry Men
I do love a good Trial Drama, but rarely do we see it from a jury’s perspective. We have seen great arguments from great Lawyer’s like My Cousin Vinny, but never have I even seen any other movie where there are arguments about a case within the jury. 12 Angry Men is 64 years old and is still fresh and relevant, not really into black and white movies but I have rarely seen a bad movie whose whole premise takes place in a single room without a break. A real masterpiece with interesting characters.

Silicon Valley
Silicon Valley is a smart funny story about entrepreneurs. Almost every episode has a few great moments and the every season has some awesome scenes that you’ll keep re-watching on YouTube. Must Watch for every MBA, Engineers and to-be entrepreneurs.
The Truman Show
The Truman Show is not your average Jim Carrey movie, it is the best. This masterpiece is much deeper than what it seems at first, do watch the numerous video essays on it. You’ll be tempted to re-watch after that.
