The start has been postponed several times, but now "Mickey 17" is finally coming to our cinemas

Whether two Robert Pattinsons are better than one will be opened - but if there are seven or eight, it could be complicated. In March we can see how such a story develops in the cinema when the crazy one-SatireMickey 17 finally starts.What is the latest film aboutFrom success director Bong Joon Ho?

Bong Joon-Ho is known to combine profound social dramas with an absurd joke-a trademark that is already inSnowpiercerandOkjahas proven. WhetherMickey 17on the global success ofParasiteCan build on, it remains to be seen. But one thing is certain: this film will ensure conversation.

The story revolves around topics such as identity and immortality. Imagine you die ... but it doesn't matter at all. Because your body is simply cloned over and over again and all memories are in the newtransmitted. This is exactly the fate of the idiotic Mickey Barnes, an "Expendable" - an interglantic worker on an intergalactic mission. He had joined a colonial mission to the IFLEHEIM Eisplanet without reading the small print of the contract. Be? Take dangerous tasks in which the chances of survival are zero just to be created in an oversized 3D printer. When Mickey suddenly meets another clone of himself after a failed commitment - Mickey 18 - a race for survival begins. Mickey is faced with the question: Should he help people or question the true nature of his own existence?

The Oscar-winning director Bong Joon-Ho is known for his films with social criticism. His filmParasiteIn 2020 got the. Now he comes alongMickey 17, a dark sci-fi film. The setup offers plenty of space for black comedy - Mickey's remnants burned are recycled for the next version and if the printing process fails, a fresh, shaky clone involuntarily ends up on the floor. Visually, the film impresses with a monochrome future noesthetics. One could think - not least because the trailer suggests this - that it is another epic story about the uprising against a corrupt regime and the triumph of humanity. And there is actually a little bit of it. ButMickey 17is much more than just a political satire. Mark Ruffalo as an eccentric antagonist - with absurd-Inche and artificial grin -further increases the oversubscribed tone, while Naomi Ackie is a Mickey's love affair between the cloning cloning.

The start ofMickey 17has been moved several times and now it should finally be ready. Like Mickey himself, the film is silly and a little inconsistent, but at the same time funny, thoughtful and maybe more plausible than we would like. A charming sci-fi bead for these extraordinary times.Mickey 17 starts on March 6th in German cinemas.
