I'm really curious about the movie based on a trailer I saw yesterday (mainly because I really really like many of the lead actors). But... what I worry about is that the film is going to be laced with American patriot drivel.

I started reading the article, but it's thoroughly spoiler laced. One comment I read also made me think I might be frustrated by the ending.

And so... now I wait. Maybe I will eventually watch it, based on what I hear people say.

But... I'm getting better at stopping media ingestion for things I don't really like, so perhaps I will start it and stop if it doesn't make the cut. (Yesterday I watched one episode of a popular show, didn't like it, and took it off my watch list. Woo! I'm so proud of myself for not powering through something I didn't really find interesting. pats own shoulder)

It's a good study on power and how those that rule can be easily out of depth once things don't go as planned.

It has a great first part, but the second and third parts are a let down.

I get what they wanted to do, but I think they didn't get the right screenplay or edit.

Sounds then like something I might throw on as background movie while I'm working.
