sociology students will love this piece

I watched this movie thinking that maybe it is related to some viruses and infections. But to my surprise It was about viruses and parasites we have among our society, the parasite of class system, the parasite that is between a rich and a poor.
This movie is not your regular rom-com rather it show cases the true nature of human beings, It shows how no one is fully saint nor fully evil. And no matter how much you dislike each character for something they did( i dislike their acts too) but at the end you can't deny not doing the same if being in their position. The start of the movie kind of broke my heart and the way a scene captures a gold medal hanging on the wall of their home in the basement, truly shows that without having money in your hands even your gold medals are equivalent to nothing.
That is harsh and bitter reality of society. Through the family's struggle we were shown how every person was trying to climb up the ladder of social mobility.
you must not watch this movie with a lens of critique rather watch it with the lens of understanding. what is movie trying to SHOW.
the pacing was great. the story telling was great.
the ending was great, it is the kind of ending that stays with you even after the credits roll.
