Review of The Secret Scripture (2017) by C700 — 23 May 2016
You are an american redneck, who longs for more terrorist action movies with muslim men praying beside their AK-47s? Are you looking for bearded nationalistic and overly idealized heroes (like Chris Kyle in American Sniper)? Do you want them to talk about literally nothing of substance over the entire movie - so your brain doesn't hurt at the slightest attempt to retain an original thought?
Do you like stock footage of soldiers getting onto airplanes, soldiers talking to their stock photo families over iPads in what could be an advertisement on the TV? Do you like slow pan drone footage of buildings, iron rods, cars and brick walls exploding in unexplainable sparks? Do you like Americans, making derogatory comments about helpful arabs standing right next to them, do you generally like helpful foreigners - such as the translator in the movie - portrayed as cowardly, spineless, birdbrained and fatuitous to help you over your own inferiority complex? Well, then this movie is definitely for you!
Odds are, you are a right winged nationalist with little educational background and too much time on your hands, whining about those foreigners who keep stealing all the jobs. Well done.
