This is around 17 or so minutes into the movie, and made me question if I want to watch it. Am I being too sensitive or too much of a puritan? I don't want to be, so maybe I just need to relax a bit on this.

Been that way in media since at least 2000. Street criminals and thieves are all white men. Scientists, doctors, and anyone who is remotely sympathetic isn't.
I know, and I wasn't surprised, but I want to avoid going into a purity spiral where I overreact things.
Trust me, you won't be overreacting to anything that Hollywood produces.
Contrast any of Hollywood's Leftist degeneracy with Russian-made films and you will see that there is no such thing as an overreaction. Russian movies today are what good action films used to be like throughout the 80s and part of the 90s.
I have recently watched the Sputnik movie, that was a good one. If you have any recommendations I will take them.
The Blackout (2019)- Dystopian sci-fi action thriller. Lots of badass action scenes and a completely original plot.
T-34 (2018) - Just watched this super awesome film about a brilliant and tactical Russian officer who has to utilize his environment and intellectual prowess to outwit and outmaneuver German tanks. Everything about this movie is so badass. Some people have called it the Fast & Furious of tank films, but it's no where near as goofy as F&F. The slow-motion alone is so awesome as the movie goes through painstaking visual detail to explain what's happening during the tank maneuvers/attacks rather than using commentary or having characters verbally explain things.
Panfilov's 28 (2016) - Very similar to T-34 in terms of its setting and premise; a small ragtag garrison of Russian soldiers have to basically stop an entire column of German tanks using a limited number of supplies. This film is extremely intense, it reminds me of a World War II Russian version of Michael Bay's 2016 flick 13 Hours.
Furious (2017) - Another absolutely badass flick based on the Russian folklore hero, Kolovrat, who has to save the remaining survivors of a Russian settlement from Mongolian invaders. Again, no Leftist politics and it has some pretty cool sword fights and medieval action sequences.
August.Eighth (2012) - This movie is kind of stupid in ways, but it's also equally awesome, too. What makes it work is that while the movie is about a selfish mother trying to save her son during the breakout of war, she ends up getting A LOT of help from some badass soldiers who aid her in her quest to find her son. I don't even know how to properly describe this film, except it's like a mix of Saving Private Ryan (very visceral and realistic gunplay), Black Hawk Down, Gundam, and Schlinder's List. It's a bizarre mix of realistic military fanfare and sci-fi, but it's done quite well. The last 20 minutes or so will have you standing up and cheering at how awesome the final big battle sequence plays out.
Den blomstertid nu kommer (2018) - It's not Russian, but it's a pretty cool Swedish film. Depends on if you like romance/disaster/conspiracy/invasion films. It's quite original for what it is, but the best part is that there is ZERO degeneracy, no out-of-place minorities, and no Rainbow Reich nonsense.
