...difference is that Spaniards lashed out at their own government. On the eve of the election, for example, furious protestors marched through the streets of Madrid, chanting “Our Dead, Your War.” But voters were most angered by Azanar’s poor handling of the crisis.

It is never clear why everyone is so passionate about this presence, who, in the film, shows as much depth as Tyrese in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Oddly enough, the only deeply felt character is Pontius Pilate (Hristo Naumov Shopov), who comes off as nuanced but ultimately unwilling to risk a rebellion to save one madman. The film’s violence is physically exhausting and, ultimately, numbing; ultimately, these shots begin to resemble pornography, complete with...
