The hate you give(2018). The book wasn't radical or anything but the movie pretended everyone's protest against police violence is the same as protest against gangs, therefore getring rid of the one big bad guy gang leader is the same as justice.

Heavy Metal (1989)
All evil in the universe is the result of one green spirit demon fucking around for no reason, and the universe is ultimately saved by a dominatrix with a sword and a pterodactyl. Yeah, right.
I just watched Master and Commander, because dudes somehow love that movie because it shows just us guys hanging out, doing stuff, and occasionally managing emotions in the most stilted fucking manner. I will never get over how the film is basically propaganda for the British navy and British imperial wars. They kept talking up Admiral Nelson so much that I thought it would lead up to something. Nah, his aristocratic and pro-slavery views were never discussed.

The Muppets Take Manhatten
Lol, my first thought was Pursuit Happyness too. I was subjected to it in school. This dude who is fulfilling the “American Dream” just got incredibly lucky despite stupid decisions. “Meritocracy” amiright? He was the top in all his classes and invested a huge amount in stupid machines. He ends up homeless because a bunch of terrible stuff happens but he’s able to pretend to be rich and try hard and solve a Rubik’s cube. Yay this one dude gets to be rich while the masses of poors he was briefly amongst continue to suffer. When I saw them in the streets my first thought was how they should be organizing, not begging for a bed. What an inspirational movie.
I'll take this moment to shill:
