I also have to join the dissenters. Many of you are reading WAY too much into this. They weren’t trying to lecture anyone about America’s evils … they were just trying to establish a friggin’ plot. They needed the bad guy to be someone capable enough to have an Iron Man suit. Do you think a Religious Fanatic is going to be smart enough to figure out how to design and use one of those things? Of course not. The bad guy had to be American in order to be strong enough to pose a threat.
So if the bad guy has to be American, and he has to pose a threat, how do we make him EVIL? Oh, I know, we make him help the terrorists!
This movie made me proud. The soldiers were honorable. The (normally) liberal actors played their parts well. They didn’t preach, they acted. A couple actors I normally don’t like gave great performances. It had F-22′s (beautiful machines). And terrorists got punched into stone walls.
How someone that agrees with my politics could interpret a liberal conspiracy in this movie is beyond me. I hope we haven’t all started wearing tin foil hats as well!
