I didn’t say that victims can’t be abusers, nor did I say that he was a hero.
People who’ve done harm need to be prevented from causing further harm, but it’s important to acknowledge the root cause of their behavior if you want to stop future iterations.
I think that the OP is entirely a joke, but that it comes from the very real villain of systemic injustice that pressures us all to lash out. I think one could see the film as inspirational insofar as being inspired to take violent action, but I would hope they direct their aggression towards worthy targets.
Yeah, originally I was going to say I don’t agree at all with his character, but the progression is so great, leading up to the “I’m the bad guy?” moment.
I just don’t get how this has a 6.5 score, it seems like at least a 7+. But maybe it’s the rose tinted glasses, we were kind of spoiled for good movies back in 2002 when it came out, and most of the votes are probably from back then.
What a great movie. (Trailer)

He is bad guy, but he is not bad guy
He was pretty alright when he killed that nazi
I didn’t see that part ;)
I’m pretty sure the bad guy was the fucked-up system that tortured him into his behavior. He’s a victim as much as any of the people he hurt.
