    Literally can't hit people over the head with a giant rock sized metaphor in the third act for some people to get it.

      I watched that movie with my Dad who's a Trump supporter and after the sequence at the end where the son imagines getting rich and buying the house my dad yelled out "Why wasn't that your plan from the beginning?" It doesn't matter how obvious a movie's message is, it will be misunderstood by those who don't want to hear it.

        Yeah absolutely. I always go back to Starship Troopers. They literally have NPH walk out in full SS regalia during a Nazi funeral and people still don't get it if they don't want to.
