WTF is this???

Rating: 1/10 (16 February 2020)

I was excited to see Parasite, due to rave reviews, and it winning best picture. I was warned by a theater worker that "the first half-hour is slow, but then it gets really good". So I made it through the first half-hour, and kept waiting for the "really good" part, only to find out that it was the exact same; more tedium by a family that was not really likable. The violence was not necessary either, and seemed to be a way to make it Oscar worthy. A lot of Oscar nominated movies have violence at the end, and that seems to be a way to get more respect, or something. It was sad, and horrible, in my opinion. I cannot wrap my mind around the fact that this movie, compared to 1917, Little Women and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, won best picture! Honestly what is going on with those who vote, that vote for this drivel? It was okay, don't get me wrong, but that's all--merely okay. (For the record, I love movies with subtitles, and have seen several amazing ones, but this was not one of them.)
