The mean old military

Rating: Null/10 (22 January 2004)

I would have liked this movie more if Wolverine wasn't shown killing a bunch of US Special Forces Soldiers sent into the school. Yeah, let's have those mean old soldiers try and go in and hurt those poor little kids.
The Hollywood cliche of showing every US General as either a fool or a villain continues. Of course it follows the comic on this, but comic book producers are as left wing these days as the folks in Tinsel Town.

The fact that it doesn't even raise an eyebrow with people is proof of just how well the public has been conditioned to think poorly in some ways of what its government does. When was the last time the CIA was show in a positive light? It hardly ever is. Well I got news for you, they put stars up in the lobby for CIA officers who die in the line of duty. The crew that puts those stars up stays pretty busy. Those are men and women who have died and continue to die defending this country. Some can never, even after death, have their names revealed.
As to the soldiers, the "snake eater types" that Wolverine kills, there is something else to be remembered. There are real heroes in this world and they are United States soldiers. They along with their allies (Brits and others) are the ones that keep us safe from evils far worse and real than you are going to find in a comic book or movie.
