A tender and sweeping story about what roots us, Minari follows a Korean-American family that moves to a tiny Arkansas farm in search of their own American Dream. The family home changes completely with the arrival of their sly, foul-mouthed, but incredibly loving grandmother. Amidst the instability and challenges of this new life in the rugged Ozarks, Minari shows the undeniable resilience of family and what really makes a home.

In other hands this might have been more overtly nostalgic with an exhausting "Remember the 80s?" aesthetic but Chung instead presents the characters and the past honestly which makes everything more enduring.
My first theater experience in 13 months. I don't know if my tears were flowing because of that fact or because of this gorgeous film. Oh wait that's right, it was both. As lush and soothing as a brook in spring. I look forward to letting 'Minari' wash over me again.
Overflowing with love, passion, and truth, Minari is the must-see film of the season. Featuring impressive cinematography, strong writing, and an incredible ensemble, the film tells a powerfully relatable story about family, sacrifice, resilience, and the beauty of small and unexpected victories. Steven Yeun, Han Ye-ri, Alan Kim, and Youn Yuh-jung all deserve Oscar recognition for their performances, Lee Isaac Chung deserves Best Director, and the film itself deserves the highest prize.
I can't remember watching a family drama as heartfelt and poignant as Minari. Told mostly from the perspective of the very young David, it offers audience an intimate view into the life of an immigrant family trying to make their life work in America. Thankfully, the movie avoids the stereotypes of intolerance and instead embraces multiculturalism and humanity, a huge relief as we (speaking as an American) put the last 4+ horrendous years behind us. The acting across the board is wonderful to behold. I forgot how enjoyable Steven Yeung is to watch. Yeri Han who plays the mom and wife is also fantastic. But the grandmother Yuh-jung Youn I think stood out the most as she had to portray such a range with her character. When I'm a grandparent I want to be just like her. And while mostly a drama, this movie had me laughing uncontrollably at times. "Don't count your chickens before their hatched," especially if your job is staring at the ass-end of a baby chick to determine its sex while having a serious marriage conversation.
