MIM Movie Review

This is an archive of the former website of the Maoist Internationalist Movement, which was run by the now defunct Maoist Internationalist Party - Amerika. The MIM now consists of many independent cells, many of which have their own indendendent organs both online and off. MIM(Prisons) serves these documents as a service to and reference for the anti-imperialist movement worldwide.

   Soldier (1998)

   Certainly in "Soldier" the main character is justified in his violence,
   but by seeing so many movies where violence is justified in so many
   contexts, the U.$. public is bound to ad-lib its own justifications
   for violence and see them as equally righteous as what happened in the
   movies. Since Amerikan movies in particular glorify the individual
   hero against the rest of society, Hollywood ends up contributing to
   the climate of serial killers and militarism.
