sooo bad that it is good?

Rating: 2/10 (19 February 2020)

Parasite is a rare movie -
the kind of movie that compels one to sit and admire.........the hype around it.
the film maker had faith in the audience's stupidity levels to appreciate whatever garbage he felt like throwing in the movie.
I saw this movie back in October 2019, much before its hype and while the first half of the movie is intriguing, it takes a downward spiral after that with its foolish plot.
*Spoilers*
mix of cliche / indigestible scenarios e.g. infiltrator family becomes uncannily cunning and smart as they take up one job after the other.
a man staying in the basement, for years, unnoticed.
infiltrator family's overboard feast while the owners are away, and guess what? home owners return right at the moment (who could have predicted that!).
the people living in the basement using morse codes via a light bulb for looong messages, but the owners never bothering to fix the light bulb.
and then there is the climax scene with killings... purely weird, unbelievable and nonsensical.
While overall the movie is ok, esp in the first half, but it definitely doesn't deserve the attention that its getting. This is explained in director's interview where he says he spent 2-3 years on writing the first half..... and the second half and especially the climax, he wrote in 2-3 months as if he was possessed (high IMO).
Such an attention is a disgrace to the other good movies out there over all these years that never got nominated/won an oscar. Its a dark joke on other movies.
