The politics and jingoism of this movie are completely insane but Owen Wilson plays a great action hero and I first saw this in theaters when I was 13 so it'll always have a special place in my heart.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
