Long, sad experience taught me to expect Hollywood to slander America. But I did not expect a blood libel. I intend to be more selective in my film viewing in the future. I intend to avoid films made by purveyors of paranoia and merchants of hate. I intend to avoid films that excuse our enemies and blame our friends.
I have no time or money to waste on people who slander the economic system that enriches them, who libel the nation that gives them freedom, and who defame the troops who risk everything to defend that freedom.

There is a Stephen King movie on right now that depicts a small town in America where everyone is ‘off’. THAT is the Hollywood view of small town America.
One of the local morning DJs (in San Antonio) was absolutely gushing about this movie. He said it’s a wonderful movie.
From the tone of it, I’m not sure if this writer actually saw the movie. I didn’t follow the link to find out.
Blaa blaa...from what I see of the trailers Mel kicks butt and that's a good thing.
Hollyweird has lived on a diet of anti-corporation and rogue government plotters flicks for decades. Back in the seventies Warren Beatty made “The Parallax View” which had a major corporation assassinating people and trying to blow up airlines. I can’t remember reading any negative reviews. Everyone knows that’s what corporations do. And there was “Three Days of the Condor” with Robert Redford uncovering a rogue segment of the CIA. Everyone knows the CIA routinely has sections who go amok and murder fellow agents. Hollyweird will never change.
