There’s a character called Peacemaker and hes Captain America but evil cause America does mostly bad shit.
However the movie is basically set in Cuba and the heroes free it at the end. It does a lot to try to muddy the waters and not make it seem to much like a real country, but the “Viva Fictional Country” chants at the end and line about now being a free and democratic country have to be courtesy of the CIA.
It’s some incredibly politically confused shit. Kind of a good movie I guess, probably the best DCEU film and much better than his Guardians of the Galaxy movies. Didn’t feel as focus tested. Its also basically a remake of the first one but with actual pacing.
much better than his Guardians of the Galaxy movies
wtf is wrong with you :disgost: :comrade-raccoon:
Wtf there was already a Suicide Squad movie, now there is a new one called The Suicide Squad? Fuck off.
There’s some very overt ‘America bad’ moments in between the lib stuff. Press ganging a prisoner by threatening to kill their kid or the entire scene of two mercenaries murdering innocent Cubans Corto Maltese in the jungle, all because a country turned anti-America
Good movie. Most enjoyable of all the DC ones, so far. Much better music choices this time around, nice pacing (kinda long tho), nice characters, nice deaths, just a good, well-made movie.
The political messaging is a bit convoluted. It’s not “America Good” or “America Bad” but more like “America Bad Sometimes But America Can Be Good”. So, the best you can hope for from capeshit. Light-years ahead of what the MCU does, obviously.
The ending is very lib. There’s also a post-credit scene so stick around for that.
Note: Peacemaker was the original basis for the Comedian in Watchmen.
