It's a good film, but modern filmmakers seem a little too obsessed with deconstructing characters and de-romanticising the hero's journey, and it's starting to become a cliche that is overplayed and almost insulting to the audience. The filmmakers seem to think that by making all the protagonists anti-heroes who are not as heroic as we think that it's intelligent storytelling, but it really isn't.
I find myself regularly asking, "Where have all the good guys gone?" and "why isn't there romance in films anymore?"
Is it a little too much to ask for a righteous protagonist and a little love in films?
The modern landscape of cynical filmmaking that creates nihilistic stories has become very tedious.
