Paul Thomas Anderson and lead star Leonardo DiCaprio, called “One Battle After Another”.
The movie is being hailed by the woke media as a “celebration of modern day Antifa revolutionaries”. Hollywood In Toto says the film “casts an Antifa-style group as its heroes,” while The San Francisco Chronicle described the film, referring to the protagonists as “an allegory that involves antifa-like left wing extremists, a well-funded right wing militia group, and immigrants avoiding ICE.” The Daily Beast called it a “gonzo Antifa rallying cry.”
“One Battle After Another” is flopping hard at the box office. The flick needs around $300 million to break even after marketing costs are included – It has only made $48.5 million globally. Keep in mind, half of all box office revenues go to theaters, the other half goes to distributors. And, a weak opening weekend usually portends a swift decline in ticket sales for the next few weeks after.
Ultimately, the movie is likely to lose hundreds of millions of dollars and probably end up on streaming services in the very near term with little fanfare. Get woke, go broke.
Paul Thomas Anderson’s otherwise excellent track record for dramatic films cannot overcome the intense gravity of the woke black hole. Few if any films escape its cold grasp. This is why it is suicide for content producers to jump onto political bandwagons; the movements they think are popular as usually not, and biases blind the creative process. The foolishness of chasing propaganda should be obvious, but not to the dimwits in Hollywood.
Comment:
I have watched the trailer and it is ambiguous about the plot.
The far left loves this movie.
That should be a warning.
I have read several reviews of "One battle after another"
The movie glorifies Antifa.
The movie is full of radical left paranoia, prejudice, stereotyping and hate.....just like Antifa is.
