Minari kertoo korealaissyntyisestä perheestä, joka muuttaa Arkansasin maaseudulle etsimään omaa amerikkalaista unelmaansa. Perheen elämä mullistuu, kun ovela, pahasuinen mutta rakastava isoäiti (Oscar-voittaja Yuh-Jung Youn) saapuu entisestä kotimaasta asumaan heidän luokseen. Uusi elämä karulla seudulla on täynnä vastoinkäymisiä, mutta Minari näyttää, millaista voimaa ja sikeyttä perheessä voi olla, sekä sen, mitä koti todella tarkoittaa. (Finnkino)

Minari combines several timeless themes in an artful way: partner, family and intergenerational relationships, the theme of immigration, and the search for the "American dream" (for South Koreans). At times it reminded me a little of Marriage Story, but Noah Baumbach's film goes more to the core. I was particularly intrigued by the grandmother's character and her (initially awkward) interaction with her grandson – Yeo-jeong Yoon gives a really solid performance and also provides a few laugh-out-loud moments to balance out the dramatic line ("Ding dong broken!"). Story-wise, the film offers more than one symbolic moment to ponder, and in addition to its intimate setting, Minari also captivated me with its haunting musical score. A weaker four stars!

At first, Minari comes across as charming and effortless. You get the feeling it's going to be one of those heartwarming epics about a Korean family scraping together enough money to buy a plot of land no American wanted and deciding to grow their own crops. But then Will Patton shows up with his over-the-top, devil-exorcising antics, and the film starts to take a turn into territory I didn’t really need. That said, the atmosphere and setting remain lovely throughout, and the ending brings a bittersweet, touching conclusion. You can’t help but root for this family, even as they face the narrow-mindedness of small-town America.

And so the Yanks can check off their "Korean movie". You could say it's similar to the dramas we know from Korea, only a bit weaker, without a proper plot, without any surprising moments. I believe that viewers who are not used to Korean filmmaking, actors, and their habits and actions might be charmed by it. I do wonder where the added value is. Yeah, sure, there's the connection between the two countries, and that has its charm, but what else? I guess my expectations were too high. 3 stars.

Very nice. An A24 drama about a family of Korean immigrants trying to get a farm going in Arkansas, though the heart of the story is the relationship between the boy and his grandmother. It’s ideal when you’re looking for something to touch you, but not in a cheap way. What blew my mind, though, was the chick sexing thing, I didn’t know it existed. Dream job :D
