Watchmen (2009)
Watchmen-A complex, mature morality tale
This is a movie that needs to be experienced. It's visuals are dazzling, it's acting performances excellent across the board, and it delivers a full-circle story. While some might find it slow or self-important, this is a movie that is truly unique in substance and artistic merit. Truly a treat of a film, and if it had come out 10 years later its dark presentation and thematic meditation would probably have been more well appreciated and understood.
Please note: Reading the graphic novel will help with understanding some nuances in the story, as it doesn't take time to explain in detail all references to the source material.
Uncle Tom (2020)
True Empowerment
This hard-hitting documentary on black conservatives is what America individualism is all about. Today, people all over tell us to what degree we can talk about race or politics solely based on our race. "Uncle Tom" empowers black Americans to make their own choices, regardless of politics, and stresses American meritocracy and individualism to a great degree. Larry Elder especially voices his views in a very relatable way.
Renegade Cut (2012)
Renegade Cut
Let me start by saying the impact of Renegade Cut depends on what your outlook is. If you are a blinded, Trump-hating leftist, you will most likely appreciate the man's opinions. If you are a conservative, you will find him insufferable. Being a libertarian centrist, it'd be easy to assume my opinion should fall somewhere between those two extremes. However, in assessment of quality and entertainment alone, this is poorly done. The editing is nothing to be proud of and the production effort is low.
First off, any criticism of anything(i.e. film) will be severely influenced by the speaker's political worldview. Objective criticism this is not. Leftist conspiracy theory better describes at least half of the contained reviews.
Political commentary will depend on your viewpoints, for is opinionated and ill-informed. Not the place to get news, or even appropriate and valid commentary.
An air of condescension and elitism from the speaker pervades what little substance Renegade Cut contains. Unless you want an in-depth look at how leftist fantasy and alternate reality functions, I do not recommend.
