I haven't seen the new movie, but I feel like the book deliberately invoked this in the sense of "this is pretty fucked up, right?" Does the movie do it in that sense or like a "wow, what a hero!" way?
the first movie taken on its own could be seen that way but its setting up a second movie which leans more towards the former sense
That's totally fair and I think tracks pretty well with the book.
