Brilliant movie that depicts in a geniusly written analogy the destructive impacts of animal agriculture on the environnement (#1 cause of global warming) and on the animals themselves who go through countless mistreatments and inhuman acts.

'Okja' is as funny as it is dramatic and that balance works just fine for the movie. Also the message is just as important as we advance full throttle to a similar future.

Nothing special here. An ethical message for the masses about food production and consumption, but delivered with such farce and outrageousness that it's hard to feel anything.

I would say user rating are pretty low on this one, movie is great with its awesome production, direction and acting. Extremely entertaining and beautiful.

Okja juggles tones successfully while delivering its thought-provoking message scrutinising livestock, without ever sacrificing action, adventure, humour, satire, and emotion.

Okja is a great movie that include deep inspirational concepts behind it.This movie makes you think about the things that are done to animals routinely in our life without being noticed by anyone

There really isn't anything good about this movie. It's mediocre all around. Poor story, poor acting, poor directing. It's not particularly funny, it's not particularly interesting to watch.

The humor is cheap. The cgi pig is pretty impressive. I'm fine with the weird **** but a couple of characters go way overboard. Not a very subtle film. I liked the first two acts, the third one is just disappointing

Causes viewers to reflect upon their very own lifestyle, all the while taking them on a rollercoaster of comedy, suspense, conflict and love. Totally worth watching.

I just saw this movie and I was all ready to write a scathing review, despite my ingoing sympathies for both animal rights and dignity and charming Korean actresses, but I have to say, Jess_Hill already nailed it. So, what she said (see below).

I love this show. It is a cross between my two favorite things. It is a
cross between Old Yeller and bacon.
Great characters. Good plot. Visions of bacon.

This was really weird. High profile actors in a crappy korean film. Uninteresting scenes were 15 min too long. If this was supposed to make me feel bad about meat production, it failed completely. Looking forward to those pork chops tonight!

This is one of those defining stories after which, nothing is ever the same again.

entertaining, relevantly disturbing and has quite provocative ambition - is a movie with a brilliantly audacious message that deserves to be seen and remembered.

A very weird yet interesting film about the horrors of greed, power, and the meat industry.

It was an okay movie.
But for Bong, it was poor.
Cant give more than 5.
And plus, Netflix movies all suck.

Quite an enjoyable ride. The movie does try to play off as a sort of thriller/comedy but, although not as captivating as Parasite or as funny as Memories of Murder, Bong Joon-ho definitely made a movie to remember with Okja.

Bong Joon Ho does not shy away from the truth or sugarcoat it, even if he assigned an innocent girl as the film’s protagonist.

Tilda Swinton and Jake Gyllenhaal give really fun over-the-top performances in this creatively original film from Bong Joon-ho. It's filled with both heart and laughs, even if it doesn't quite rank with the very best of Joon-ho's other work.

"Okja" is a good film that teaches us to love animals and not to abuse them. The movie shows all the horrors of a slaughterhouse.

People are so so strange. It's a pity for the heroes of the film, but in a couple of hours we will continue to eat sausages.
