Saving Private Muad'Dib

Set in the end days of the Wild West, "Hostiles" asks the question, "are we the baddies?" It's woke, but good, and hence dangerous.

In one scene, a SJW type older woman, just as annoying as a Redditor, explains how Indians were being mistreated, which was true and yet she is speaking from naivete. The Natives themselves are not one dimensional or homogeneous, with the Cheyenne chief warning that the Comanches are cray-cray animals. Had they met, the SJW woman would no doubt have accused him of being racist, insisting we must welcome the Comanches into our communities with open arms.

Another woke aspect is that there is a black corporal in the otherwise white calvary detachment. The year was 1892, and this never happened, not even a black private. At this time, the US army maintained strict segregation, except that black units had mostly white officers. It was not until 1898, six years after the setting of the film, that the US army allowed some black soldiers into regular units, out of desperation for manpower during the Spanish-American War. The film would have escaped with a 1/5 woke rating, but when it comes to 1984 style rewriting of history, THE LINE IS DRAWN HERE! 5 woke points, and I hope the excellent director rots in hell!

Since we're the baddies and so are the Comanches, it's a little bit rough to watch. But still, it's pretty good. Just don't let the director brainwash you into believing a false history.
