This is just unhinged. It’s going to do so incredibly poor in theaters.

Then the film’s Renée Good stand-in enters, slamming her Subaru into the ICE van. Described with the subtlety of a brick as “MELANIE (40), a fat blue-hair,” the woman, blasting NPR, revs up again and fatally hits ICE agent “Juan” with her car. Then his ICE partner, “Mike,” shoots her in a justifiable killing.

They have like 5 jokes. LOL.

    Wow, 0 respect for the source material. I bet they didn't even watch the original.

    Is there anything they respect? I guess they probably hold the taste of boot leather in pretty high esteem

    You forgot about the covid mask.

    Content warning: description of violence

    spoiler

    The first shot takes the [sic] Melanie in the neck, below her covid
    mask. The second in the head, above her covid mask.
    Blood SPLATTERS on her PASSENGER’s (40s, female, overweight)
    forehead and matching covid mask.

    My contempt is boundless for everyone involved not just in making light of this specific murder, but in perpetuating the idea that ICE are anything better than bumbling, violently insecure, untrained little boy-men.

    The right wingers don't have many creative people. Very few right wing comedians as an example. I think that's one of the reasons they hate the other side, they need us for good entertainment.
