A bad Guy Ritchie impression featuring a woke Eggsy and AntiFa as heroes
Great action sequences completely overshadowed by someone deciding we need a woke version of Robin Hood. Evil Christians and Rich people attacked the poor Muslims during the crusades. The unjust occupation is propped up by The Military War Machine. Such a clever modern parallel. Using modern military terms, costumes that look like military uniforms, oh my, how brilliant. Robin Hood is played by Eggsy from The Kingsman. Seriously. Not just the same actor. he literally plays the roles identically. The grand finale battle has the poor people dressed as an AntiFa mob fighting the evil soldiers dressed to resemble a police SWAT team. It was such a clever imagining that the director forgot he actually still had to make a decent movie. Wait for it to show up on cable or Netflix, that way you won't be shamed into watching this to the end because you just spent good money to rent this turdfest yawn party.
