Is “Parasite” the best movie of the year? It just might be according to the reviews. The Korean film by director Bong Joon Ho opened on October 11 in limited release, and it’s the highest rated film of 2019 no matter which review aggregator you choose.
As of this writing, the film has a MetaCritic score of 95 based on 31 reviews counted — all of them positive, and 14 of which are rated a perfect 100. That currently ties it with “Marriage Story” at the top of MetaCritic’s 2019 rankings, but “Marriage” doesn’t open for another month, so additional reviews may adjust its average up or down by then.
