I kind of had this moment with a The Last Jedi critique

I was mildly curious about a pretty popular review, and after being somewhat underwhelmed by the movie I just watched the first few minutes of it. Initially, it was actually a sound critique of the film, hitting a lot of points I kind of agreed with (too many rug pull moments, several plot threads that kind of went nowhere, bad fight choreography, etc), but then the guy literally went "....and the message of the film is you should ALWAYS listen to women, that is what THEY are trying to push on you" or somesuch

It cracked me up at first, but then I realized it was almost certainly purposeful design, to lure in more naive people who would be baited in by the initial, well made points and who would then swallow that plate of brainworms wholesale
