I saw it. People are WAY over thinking it. It is one of the best action movies I have ever seen and runs full tilt from beginning to end while saying true to the original. HIGHLY recommend.
I agree. This is not a film to be analyzing with ten dollar words looking for Jungian archetypes. It’s a very upfront, WYSIWYG movie. If you want a great non-stop action flick that looks great and leaves you feeling exhausted after watching it, then go see this movie.
Most financially-successful contemporary movies get psychoanalyzed to death. Sometimes a movie is just a good story. I can remember how the hit song “American Pie” from the 70s begot an entire mini-industry of empty professional analysis.
