My dad was a huge fan of Falling Down, the movie where the guy pulls a gun in a McDonalds because they stopped serving breakfast
That was one of the earliest examples I can remember of "a lot of the audience really missed the fucking point" movie, and it had the same reason: the camera and the script is focused on D-FENS and his ongoing
violent rage and that was seen as sympathetic, even condoning, of his actions and anything said about him by the end of the movie was way, way too late to get absorbed.
