    I don't think it's hamfisted about its depictions, I felt it was just very much made for a left audience. At one point I expected grandpa to pull out a red flag and start waving it around but alas it was not to be.

    I think liberals just like to be political ignorant. It has been drummed into them that "politics" in anything at all is somehow rude or to be seen negatively... Especially politics that so very clearly advocate the problem with capitalists.

    I also think that for some (the politically ignorant) it has a rather unsatisfying ending because

    spoiler

    literally none of the capitalists get any come uppance and the events of the movie prevent none of the cogs of history from turning. The point is "but that didn't stop the capitalists and it never will"

    People like their good vs bad and bad guy loses endings. These people who will be completely ignorant to the political messages being sent by the movie will still be unhappy about the way it goes. Never mind though, great movie for anyone actually switched-on.
