Hollywood PC pandering and propaganda

Rating: 1/10 (31 March 2000)

Pick the themes that are prominent - family, love, loyalty, work, right, wrong. Now apply the PC police required spin - families are destructive, love has no place, parents are bad, just-do-it is good, morals are bad, drugs are good, military people are fascist gay bashers, everyone cheats, life is hell. Now use all the worst cliches available. Now you have a movie that the Academy, critics, and the usual commentators are obliged to praise. Who could find fault with all this PC pap?
This movie deserves few if any of the Oscars it bought with this formula. Compare it with the other nominees - but wait till it is in the dollar theatre.
