Watching a lib movie with lib parents is usually hell, but there are some beautiful scenes. Blown up US embasy, policemen defending a cleptocracy and actually loosing. Fancy h otel being stormed. Even a decent rant of a cynical secret service agent thrown right in the middle. And commies get to save the dumbass protagonists in the end. Movie was still terrible, but it got me thinking. Are there any movies filmed from an unironic amarican perspective with logical leftist "villans".
Ive got no high hopes, but Ill gladly be surprised.

    I mean Black Panther's villain explicitly wants to arm black revolutionaries around the world using scifi laser guns, that's pretty logical and leftist.

        Yeah the movie is actually pretty great except for the end. The "villain" is basically like "Hey so ummmm you're a country of literal scifi African gods yet you didn't help black people all around the world even though it would be trivial for you to do so which is fucked. Time for me to take over and use your scifi guns to free black people everywhere." Ends with the king of Wakanda (the aforementioned country) being like "is he perhaps right? Naaahh, violence is bad."

          The protagonists in lib movies are generally libs after all. Im already happy if the leftists are portrayd cortectly. Getting your leftist plot foiled by some dumb lib for dumb reasons is also pretty logical. I hope I didnt misunderstand you, haven't watched the movie yet
