Just read the description for parasite on wikipedia.

Poor family infiltrates rich families household as posers. Hilarity ensues and then they’re found out and some members of the poor family stab the father of the rich family to death.

It’s considered a “smart” picture about the evils of capitalism.

Critics find it ... refreshing.

PARASITE is not about the evils of capitalism. It’s about the evils of those who hate it and destroy others to get at their $$$.

Bernie Sanders could have coached the parasites.

[[It’s considered a “smart” picture about the evils of capitalism.]]

So lemme guess- the film makers did the film for free, right? And film goers don’t have to pay to see it, right?

Parasite is a lot of fun. It does not demonize the wealthy. Everyone I know who son loved it.

Here's my review:

The movie Parasite was awful and clearly political with all it's symbolism. But then Hollywood has become practically Asian owned, and of course celebrity audience cheered and clapped because they know who signs their paychecks.

The Awards opening show looked like something you'd see on kids Saturday morning programming from start to finish and the other singing acts reminded us gone are the days of true musical talent.....

The red carpet ‘clothing’ failed miserably as most looked like they just stepped out of a 50’s circus tent, a far far cry from class or designer.

Joker's Phoenix made a complete fool of himself as he stumbled through his word salad from saving animals, to world resources and how terrible we are in this nation... even he didn't recognize what he was saying it was so bad.

Renee looked elegant until she opened her mouth... Pitt sounded as dumb as he likely is...and Fonda was her usual stern mommy mode standing in the wings.

I won't go on because that was enough for me to suffer through. It has been several years since I watched any Hollywood awards show and it's certainly become an event of unskilled, less then amateurs, pretending they're artists of their craft.
