I was in the mood to turn my brain off witch an action movie I hadn't seen before, so did just that.
I won't do a full review since I'm only 30 minutes in, but the movie is Ambulance, 2022; Jake Gyllenhaal, some black dude, and some hispanic chick.
It's competent enough so far, generally. It's not doing anything too fancy, but I appreciate that from an action movie. But the Modern Audiences™ nonsense is unavoidable. I wish I didn't notice this but, once you know, you know.
Every black person is competent and in a position of power. Every white person is some combination of psychopath, loser, or incompetent. There's only been one woman in focus so far, but she's - no kidding - "the best paramedic in the city," and extremely competent. Hobbled with some newbie white dweeb...who's probably going to die or otherwise get damseled, at a guess.
Gyllenhaal and Black Dude are brothers. Black Dude was adopted by, wait for it, Gyllenhaal's psychotic criminal father. Black Dude is a patriotic veteran who's trying to get his life together, while his white brother is a criminal who drags him into shit. Gyllenhaal's criminal crew are, I believe, all white...and some of the most ridiculously incompetent or insane people around. Hilariously, they're also a very diverse set of whites for some reason; you have I believe an Italian, Irishman, and some sandal-wearing hippy hacker or something. It's bizarre.
It's all so tiresome.
Yep, that's the problem, it's not just the fact that it's blatantly ideological, it's all tediously predictable. Say what you will about the North Korean propaganda at least they can make it entertaining in a fucked up kind of way. You can't even enjoy a decent B-Tier action movie anymore precisely because of the problems you describe in the story writing.
It's not about plot development or anything basic like that and the action scenes you do get are fucking shit. This becomes painfully obvious for example if you've ever tried watching through in sequence action movie series and you realise that they're not only becoming heavily reliant on CGI it's not even good CGI.
Also just to assure you you're not going crazy because leftists always gaslight us on this, yes, not only are the women tediously amazing in these films with zero flaws only black men are allowed to be any kind of positive masculine figure in it. This is something that's really fucked up about western media because they really are trying to tell white men that you're a piece of shit and always are. If the white men ever happen to be not evil, they're gay as fuck so what kind of message does that send? Of course you know the answer to this if you know anything about leftist ideology.
This is why young men with any brains are leaving the west in droves when women are openly cheering this shit on and not in an insignificant number. It's probably an extremely good thing that it's boring because even the normies are switching off as a result. I've seen better short films rendered on someone's laptop than whatever Hollywood poops out of it's arse these days.
There are North Korean films? I'll be honest... I never bothered checking, but do you know of any good ones?
