uma boa forma de matar o tempo
existe algo sobre as séries de ficção científica sul coreanas que é que dificilmente eu não vou gostar delas. é sempre uma qualidade muito boa.sobre parasyte eu gostei muito da série, é um plot muito curioso que envolve a história. é muito bem desenvolvido toda essa relação da heidi com a su in, um parasita que quer somente sobreviver mas decide atender as necessidades do seu hospedeiro pois entende que existe algo além de apenas sobreviver. os outros personagens são igualmente interessante e suas histórias individuais desenvolve na gente um certo apego.

Gripping ~ needs S2 to continue monentum
May 2024Not a limited series, therefore a S2 expected, dependant on ratings I assume, so fingers crossed.
I loved the pace and the characters. At 6 episodes there is little room for depth, but to be honest, personally I don't think a series always needs it. If the aim is thrills and entertainment, that's not the point anyway.
There is enough background to understand main characters and the action starts fairly quickly.
Jung Soo-in (actress Jeon So-nee) is a somewhat tragic character; when her Parasyte, whom gets named Heidi, comes to the fore, Soo-in 'sleeps' and vice versa.
That's not a new concept and has been used in many dramas about multiple personality disorder (Hyde, Jeckyll, Me; Kill Me Heal Me). However, with an alien cohabiting Soo-in's brain that can't be psychoanalysed away, it gives things a totally different feel.
The SFX are pretty good and some scenes of confrontation are excellent.
There are sad aspects to the plot, but perhaps due to the lack of episodes, I didn't feel connected enough to characters to get emotional; I was more shocked on a couple of occasions.
I actually loved the character of Heidi (but I am sure we are supposed to) and Jeon So-nee effortlessly carries off switching between the two.
Seol Kang Woo (Koo Kyo Hwan) is a witty, cocky character on the wrong side of the law and self-serving. Circumstances bring him together with Soo-in and he slowly becomes more protective of her, although not always out of choice! KKH is perfect for this role (loved him in D.P.).
Choi Joon-kyung could be a pretty arrogant and annoying character, and whilst a part of me got why, her actions in relation to someone parasitised, I found unforgiveable, considering their identity. I found her very hard to like or empathise with.
A good supporting cast, with familiar faces and no obvious over acting.
I didn't find the look of the Aliens to be scary at all, in fact I found them pretty odd really. I'd love to know exactly where they came from. Their view of us humans is basically as food and a 'home'; fair enough ~ as the apex predator on our planet, we're actually no different in our behaviour towards pretty much all other species. I can only imagine what designs some would have on inferior life forms, if we ever found any from another world.
There are some twists in the story and it's pretty thrilling at times, but not strong on tension.
The close of S1 is actually pretty neat, so whilst it would be disappointing if no S2 was to follow, the story would still have been a decent viewing in itself.
Kept me glued and I wanted more; so, worth watching and I'm hoping for a S2, when hopefully more will be revealed.

Fun Entertaining Watch
The story and characters got better with each episode such that I hope they continue with the main characters in a part 2. I thought there were a number of plot holes and open questions on how the universe worked, but because the story doesn't take itself too seriously and because of the character growth you don't care about those questions. At the end I was left wanting to see what happens next with these characters.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Not an adaption of the anime but fantastic nonetheless
Started watching it expecting it to be an adaption of the anime but it’s not. There is a nice nod to the anime in the last scene of the last episode though. The acting and pace is brilliant, really enjoyable for those who aren’t into slice of life k dramas and prefers thrillers.I don’t really like rewatching series, but I would rewatch this again. It’s great that it’s short and nothing in the storyline js dragged out unnecessarily.
The CGI is done insanely well and the overall quality of the production is great.
