    I am not sure what I think about this, having watched it. I generally like anti-superhero stories and am totally desensitized to violence, so I liked that part. But generally it felt anachronistic.

    Generic Middle Eastern terrorism, blackmailing gay people for being gay, how all the women are treated, feels like a throwback. This was "edgy" during the Bush II years but now... it's not.

      They do have a little Me Too moment side-plot, which if anything just underlines how much of the rest of the plot is a response to the cultural zeitgeist of the early 2000s. It doesn't really translate.
