Simmering with tension the entire way through. A dreary indictment of how might makes right that explores the effects of who gets to wield violence and why. Super interesting to frame it from the perspective of a by the books officer who acts as an audience surrogate of sorts tying to figure out wtf is going on. No fancy action sequences, just the dread of what senselessness might come next.
Interesting to me that I watched this movie years ago…
Batshit motherfucking insane movie. They need to put this next to the word provocative in the dictionary. I digged it tho.
While it’s insane, that chaos does such an excellent job of capturing the feeling of the depravity of global capitalism. Works well to illustrate how the toil for endless profit makes animals (hehe) of us, all for the benefit of the uncaring owners above us.

Delightful movie. It really is remarkable how consistently this franchise churns out competent and tight scripts that provide a theme and arc to every character combined with a sense of wholesome humor that’s so enjoyable. Goated planting and payoff here, like that Kobe and shaq meme. There’s something to comfortable to a tried and true script outline that executes every time.
Love that they always choose a guest star actor to really ham it up, banderas killed that shit.
