It’s no coincidence that the contempt oozing out of Thunderbolts* matches the Biden years of contorted language. That asterisk denotes a corrupt populist movie that tells Zoomers they are freaks and mediocrities, even if they band together. The caucus of third-rate superheroes diminishes the concept of heroism just as the terms “inflation,” “take seriously,” “root causes,” “infrastructure,” and “democracy” were robbed of meaning by the last administration. Yes, Thunderbolts* is an anti-American fantasy. What that asterisk really means is: There’s even less to this movie than you think.
