I don't know if anybody's seen it here. I can't search because search here is broken.
What a pile of absolute shit this movie is.
Spoilers
The setup is this: Guy with son. Guy is a forensic accountant, discovers some org's criminal activity. They kill guy. Son is lost in woods.
Wonder woman finds son and protects him. Meanwhile the sheriff is completely unable to do anything, so his pregnant black wife has to be bad ass, physically fight off two guys, and save everybody with a shotgun.
Bad guys are all dudes.
Good guys are all women.
Every man in this movie dies.
Every woman in this movie lives.
Angelina Jolie gets struck by lightning and has no problem fighting off a dude with a gun with nothing more than a hatchet.
Woke garbage.
I had no plans to watch it but thanks for the confirmation. My rule of “avoid most entertainment after 2014 is still in effect”
Sad but true
You're missing out on seasonal anime.
Well I do watch Anime when I come across it. How are they able to avoid the woke monster?
It's a different culture.
"New movie" is enough for me these days
Salt was fine.
Except the tired old "Anorexic woman beats up 6'3" competitive powerlifter cause kung fu!"
It only works if it's done in a believable and realistic manner, which would require her to be extremely fit (very powerful calves and forearm muscles), terribly quick (Bruce Lee quick), and know how to hit his vitals before he could react.
But that's not how these movies play out because the actresses they get for these roles aren't fighters, so none of their make-believe feminist power-fantasies look remotely believable.
I also bring up the point about the realism factor because I was watching some of the fights from Street Beefs recently and you can see how smaller skilled fighters can beat larger, unskilled muscle-heads. But in these movies the muscle-heads these 100lbs females are fighting are supposed to be skilled assassins/guards/contractors, and so when you see someone like Jolie beating them up using sloppily thrown punches and weak toothpick-thin kicks, none of it looks remotely believable.
Atomic Blone improvised weapons and got the dog shit beat out of her too. Much more than Salt.
Crazy that they came out with something as good as Chernobyl a couple of years ago.
I have HBO+ and am burning through the older series before quitting. I’ve tried a handful of their new stuff and it’s brutally bad.
Rewatched Sopranos for first time in 15 years recently, surprised that hasn’t been cancelled in today’s culture.
Amen brother
Whooof. Even the normies I talked to said this was garbage. I dunno why they marketed it like it was a ripoff of the tomb raider reboot.
Probably because the last time Angelina Jolie was marketable was in Tomb Raider, so they hoped by putting those two phrases together it would make magic happen.
Thought it looked stupid from the first trailers where it seemed like it was just about a forest fire or something like that happening. Knew it was straight trash as soon as the trailers with her protecting the kid were released. The "Lone Action Protagonist must protect the Kid" just doesn't seem to work when it's a female in the role.
Yeah but she wasn't unrealistically beating up dudes who would easily destroy her IRL
Also of note, her motivation for risking it all to save the girl was her maternal instincts that were on fire because she awakened from hibernation to find her own daughter had already died.
To the Woke, women being maternal is a retrograde patriarchal stereotype.
Aww the trailer reminded me of the Firewatch game for a moment and I got my hopes up. My disappointed was immeasurable and my day was ruined.
I have that on my wishlist, maybe I'll rethink it.
Angelina Jolie is still alive? I was less surprised when I found out Marion Ross is still above ground
Sounds like they wish for their own deaths in the end because a world without men would not be able to continue as biology cannot sustain without reproduction, but of course facts mean nothing to the ‘Emotional Tribe’ bunch of SNOWFLAKES they are
Almost pirated it this morning, glad I never bothered
