I remember Rush Limbaugh talked about this 1993 flick back then. It would be tempting to do a review of it, but then again, it's a really old flick now. Why would anybody care?
It makes a lot of good points that I can identify with. No, I'm not planning to shoot up a "Whammy burger" joint. The movie goes a little too far. You lose sympathy for the guy because he becomes a killer. People die in the flick, so the humorous parts are drowned out by the darkness of that.
Limbaugh gave it a bad review. I'd say it misses whatever mark it was trying to make. If it was about incompetence, then the film may have been better made as a dark comedy. If it was to be a social criticism, it may have been better if the "D-FENS" guy didn't kill anybody, because there needs to be some sympathy for his position for the social commentary to stick.
Instead, one is left to wonder what the film was really all about. Just to poke a finger in the eye of a whole bunch of different people?
