The movie was pretty good, some good action scenes, and certainly worth seeing. I didn’t see much if any “America is great” patriotism though. Barely mentioned America at all. This was strictly about a group of mercenaries for hire who go and kick bad-guy ass. Could have been from any decent country, basically.
“I didn’t see much if any “America is great” patriotism though.”
But you did not see anything akin to:
Bourne trilogies
Green Zone
G.I. Jane
G.I. Joe
Born On The Fourth of July
Nixon
Platoon
and on, and on............
The main thug’s (Eric Roberts) repeated comments about the “company sent you” were a reference to the CIA, as in “the comapny sent you” to take down his thug ###. Very pro-America subtext there.
