"People are WAY over thinking it."

Are you saying that this analysis is way off the mark?

Yes.

The description of the world is generally accurate but the movie is no more than what it is ... an action movie with a h**l of a lot of action. There is no agenda there and any “meaning” gleaned from it is made up out of whole cloth. Now. To be fair. Art is what the beholder gets out of it. But anything more than “what a ride (pun intended) is a real stretch.

This “analysis” probably has more words in it than the entire movie. It’s trying too hard to wring meaning out of the 20 minutes or so of the movie that doesn’t involve cars being destroyed. This is a visceral movie about kinetic action. It actually deliberately takes you out of disbelief so that you can marvel at the stunt work.
