    This is sort of the way ::: spoiler spoiler The Wrath of Becky ends. After exacting her revenge for the second time, she gets approached by a CIA person who basically offers her a job as a field agent/professional killer and she ends up getting support ro take out one final bad guy with a flipping tank. It’s a satisfying ending for the movie and for Becky. :::

    If you haven’t seen those movies, they’re worth checking out. They’re like 2 hours of revenge/justice porn, very violent and gory but entertaining.

    Did you describe Saddam Hussein?

    Although his father died before he was born, his mother tried to abort him and kill herself but failed, she didn’t want him and he was raised by his uncle.

    That’s kinda like Absolute Batman. Alfred is an MI6 agent investigating Batman and the other gangs, and after a while they start working together because Alfred believes in the Mission.

    Batman actually blasts Alfred at point-blank with a “non-lethal” shotgun in their very first meeting. I say “non-lethal” because the shotgun shoots mini batarang-shaped shrapnel. And Alfred just has a bunch of tiny batarangs sticking out of his face after the shot.

    Goddamn I need to read the Absolute DC comics.

      I just saw this movie.

      Tap for spoiler

      He blackmails his superiors to get training… he isn’t offered to get revenge on his wife’s killers. They laugh at him…

        I think thats in the trailer, so no spoiler. Its not exactly OPs premise, but its close, its still a normie being helped by a larger organisation. Did you like it?

          I dunno, he gets treated like a ‘normie’ but continually surprised people who underestimate him.

          It wasn’t the best movie but not the worse. It has some fun moments. Made me want to watch Mr. Robot (only seen pieces).
