10 Dumbest Movie Plot Twists Of 2020
1. Borat Was COVID-19 Patient Zero - Borat Subsequent Moviefilm
But a dumb plot twist isn't always a bad thing, as proven by the hysterical Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.
The film's thoroughly insane ending offers up a parody of The Usual Suspects' final twist, revealing that Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen) was himself patient zero of COVID-19, having been unknowingly injected with the virus by the Kazakh government as revenge for making the country a worldwide joke in the first film.
Borat is then sent off around the world, where he causes the initial outbreak in Wuhan by coughing at a seafood market and even gives the virus to Tom Hanks by coughing on him in Australia.
It's a brilliantly ridiculous twist on which to end the film, and somehow still more believable than the pandemic being a hoax or caused by 5G masts.
It's completely, unapologetically stupid, and yet, who would have it any other way?
