An unintentional satire of some western civilizations

Rating: 2/10 (25 July 2018)

I don't understand the hype. This movie is either a brilliant satire in the tradition of Starship Troopers or simply very bad, and I felt it was the latter one. There are some scary bits, but most of the time it is annoyingly calculating and unintentionally funny. The characters are two-dimensional at best. The end scene is extremely repulsive, but at the same time very revealing. I understood that this movie was indeed an allegory of the violence-embracing and xenophobic mentality, which is currently prevalent in some societies. I also realized that this satire was again unintentional: the creators of this movie did not (really) understand what they were saying.
