It's gotten high scores on all the ideologically poisoned "review" sites and scores ultra high among fans.
Just came back from it just felt like a good, old school action flick with a Hero's journey type of story. It's great, and it does a proper "sendoff" with a character (Rooster) being a strong link between the previous movie and this movie.
This is one of those "turn your brain off and enjoy the ride" sorta deals. It just tries to be a good movie, and it's damn good. Lots of FUCK YEAH AMERICA tones to it as well.
I still want to know who the "enemy" they were fighting are though. Considering the wintery location it must be a reference to Russia, with the Su-57's kinda making an appearance as their opposition.
Regardless it's a great movie, even leftist publications are praising it. Go watch it if you have time.
While true, it made no impact on the film and was never referenced in any way, shape, or form.
As far as I'm concerned, that diversity is the way it should be done (if it fits the setting)
