It’s just pure, unadulterated sentimentality in that classic American way... You know the type, where we all flock to theaters to make a quick buck off a film that critiques our own social flaws, only to walk out of the cinema having done absolutely nothing to actually address those issues, choosing instead to just talk about them through the lens of fiction...
Exactly, and honestly, that’s the most chilling part of this whole ordeal—which, by the way, is incredibly draining—to realize that we do absolutely nothing to change things. But then, people just shrug it off, claiming it isn't the film's responsibility, but rather the fault of the government, its institutions, or even the public at large, especially since mob mentality still feels like an acceptable way for people here to seek justice...
It’s such a shame, too, because the subject matter is so heavy that it pulls you away from appreciating the film as a piece of art, dragging you straight into the political firestorm as if you were watching a documentary rather than a scripted drama. If their only goal was to stir up intense emotions in the audience, I have to admit, they succeeded quite brilliantly, truly they did...
