Not going to see much of this one in main stream media, but it is going viral on social media.
The anti-immigrant subject matter made the German government hot under the collar so they banned it.
As a result Elon Musk posted the movie for free on X (for 48 hours) and things exploded (pun :laugh: ) after that.

Think Death Wish but for 2026.

Critics are slamming it but it's getting audience approval.

Watched it the other night (Thanks Elon)....wasnt bad...wasnt great....The Jam Man gives it a 6/10

I couldnt figure out who the main character was till I googled it and then remembered him...

(And I also didnt know this: In the 2010 movie The Social Network, Armie Hammer played identical twin brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. Since they are twins, Hammer actually played both roles using CGI, facial replacements, and a body double)

I'm assuming we can spoiler.

SPOILERS

Lol at casually killing the other car & driver on the road just to make a point about rule breaking. Was also not expecting the whole family to get it.

More Spoilers:
And when he kills the judge he just pours a bit of vodka on the clothing....Seemed a bit pointless..
And the fixed AK47s going hell for leather in that metal box he was in...pretty sure that would have filled up with smoke.
And wipes out an entire SWAT unit, because they stood there like morons
And kills a few more when the idiots casually opened up the booby trapped door in the that metal box
And he never picked up shell casings...or used gloves...

Hence the 6/10 for me...

I liked the vigilante concept but thought someone like that might like to not get caught...

The lead up to the SWAT shootout took so damn long. There's like 10 minutes of SWAT team driving, then they cut to 10 minutes of prostitutes and mold, then another 10 minutes of SWAT entering the property. One of the examples in this movie of pointless, wasted time.

The whole political message is a bit weird when brown dudes from Africa need to get in line but white dude from USA can kill innocent people to make a point.
