Director Rian Johnson Brings 'Knives Out' Against Trump Voters |
2019-09-10 |
![]() [PJMEDIA] In his first major motion picture since annoying and disappointing generations of Star Wars fans with The Last Jedi, writer-director-progressive Rian Johnson is poised to do the same to an even larger slice of the American public with next month's Knives Out. And lefty movie critics couldn't be more thrilled, according to the latest from Society Reviews. SR reports that "critics at the Toronto International Film Festival gushing about the film’s shared hatred for Trump and his voters," which is about as subtle as a knife to the throat. I sure hope this'll turn out to be a case of "bringing a knife to a gun fight". |

#4 What Lord Garth said. From the preview, the personas effected by the characters all display either characteristic liberal and bohemian delinquency or 'entitlement syndrome'. Even they include MAGA caps and dialogue about voting Trump, the audience will automatically make the mental connection to who actually exhibits these characteristics. The liberal just can not hide his/her hatred and snobbery behind art. They stand distinct from normal people. |

#2 Considering on RottenTomatos it already has a 100% fresh rating from the blue check brigade, I would bet the movie is complete crap. |

#1 without seeing the film its difficult to say what it is going to mean remember the remake of Manchurian Candidate it was supposed to be an allegory of bad Dick Cheney and his former employer but in the actuality, Meryl Streep used Hillary mannerisms and stole the show and the intended anti Cheney anti corporate stuff didn't register with most people |
