One of the most racist movies ever made


and that's saying something from so-called liberal Hollywood. Now, let me be the first to say that I have not seen this movie, but any movie that needs to shoe-horn in a white male in a savior role is by default racist, and there is nothing that you can say otherwise. This movie would've worked far better if they'd used a indian actor instead. Just the sheer fact that there are no complaints about a white person being the villain in this film tells you how racist anyone who likes this film really is. They think it's alright when the white lead is leaving destruction everywhere he goes when he's in a foreign land, but if the roles were reversed and it was an Indian mercenary that had to save a child held by a white gang leader for ransom, all the racists would be up in arms over "evil white male propaganda". Such a disgusting racist film, can't believe any minorities even signed on for this.

Money is king and this is the most watched movie in the history of Netflix originals. One of the few that is actually getting a sequel. Just because you thought it was rrayyyciiistt doesn't mean the rest of the world agrees with you.

My issue with the movie, and it had nothing to do with feefees or rayycism, is how unrealistic it is. IRL, the Hemsworth character would have died a lot sooner. He was doing John Wick level killing, but while John Wick had a supernatural air to him, Hemsworth's character was just a man and shouldn't have been able to do pile up bodies like that.
