Stripped of all complexity this major Box Office Hit is nothing more than a great way to release some pent up frustration about some despicable things that continue to go on with impunity around the World. For those who maintain that it is Xenophobic and Racist, well it has to be set somewhere and the Villains have to be somebody.
So pick one. It really doesn't matter. There is no argument that America is also filled with such Evil and nastiness that it might have taken place in the good olé US of A. These things matter little in these Comic-Book Movies. Nothing seems plausible or realistic, hence Comic-Book Category, but it is so much fun watching the really Bad Guys get a really good comeuppance.
There is some very mediocre Acting (just about everyone except Liam) and the Movie never lets up enough to make anyone think about what is happening, and it shouldn't. This is for the tired of it all People who are sick of the apathy and talk and just want some good old fashioned Payback. Justice...Revenge...Karma.
So forget deep Sociological analysis, or anything that makes any intellectual sense. This is here to continue the thing that makes great Fiction. Viva the Fictional Vigilante.
