    if that is true 2025 has to be worst year for movies in history.

    2025 wasn’t even the worst year for movies in the 2020’s decade.

    I thought it was pretty good. Watched it in the cinema, I didn’t regret it.

    I don’t think it was the best movie of 2025, but it was entertaining and relatively well made and somewhat original.

      …

      It was Taken with a Hipster reskinning. Instead of a guy with a particular set of skill it was a guy who did a a lot of bong hits…

    I got about 8 minutes in and got a weirdo vibe that I felt the movie couldn’t recover from, so I cut it off. I’m not saying that my assessment is accurate given the short viewing time, but I’m not surprised by your review.

      Me, too.

      I was watching it and it just seemed like a fantasy of what a raid would look like.

      Kill a bunch of Federal agents and leave a lot of immigrants in the desert with no supplies?

          So the start is a dream sequence?

          Meh.

          It wasn’t exciting or interesting. I’ve stuck with plenty of movies that were confusing at the start. It’s not worth the reveal.

            No, it’s that the older radical violent generation is trying to live out a fantasy and they are making things worse not better.

            Look at how not only does nothing improve during their efforts, but the mere presence of Bob disrupts the efforts of a well organized community who is actually helping immigrants.

            And in the end the daughter does not pack a moltov and sawed off shotgun for a raid, she goes to a protest.
