Was this talking about the movie and not the book? I lean towards the movie, but I don't know, not enough context.

That being said, the book was a pretty in your face look at fascism. The movie lost some of it, but I also enjoyed the shit out of the movie.

The movie was straight up a parody of a propaganda film made by the fascist society from the book. It's a satire meant to make you think about fascist propaganda.

But it was too similar to other action movies that people didn't get what it was. Which is kinda scary really.
