Media as the Evil in Eddington
Eddington attempts to capture how media is intertwined with the uncomfortable present.

Jin Kaito returns to his womanizing ways, despite Ranko's worryings. His next conquest? Tomoko, a fiery beauty who just happens to be the mistress of a powerful yakuza boss. Frustrated by her lover’s impotence, Tomoko unleashes her desires on Jin. But passion turns dangerous and Tomoko, obsessed with him, orders an attack on Ranko. Jin barely saves her and things seem to calm down, when the danger strikes: Kuwata, an ambitious underling, plans to take control over the gang.

Ultra-violent storytelling has never been my thing, but the issues with Scarface go beyond that. The film perpetuates harmful stereotypes about Latinx immigrants and uses gore and misogyny for shock value that never serves any purpose. The whole venture is frustratingly empty, and left me desiring something more.
