The Pursuit of Happyness is really bad. Will Smith's inspirational moment is going to the New York Stock Exchange and seeing all the happy rich guys in suits walking around, and wanting to be like them. Having to do stuff like brown-nose executives, sleep in train station bathrooms and pull his son out of daycare due to lack of money are presented not as flaws of the system but evidence of Smith's smart bootstraps-oriented thinking. This movie is the Mein Kampf of liberalism.
Idiocracy -- the whole thing is a eugenics take on poor people are genetically stupid people and vice versa, and their "out of control" breeding vs the smart, civil minded rich people creates a world that's run by the genetically poor stupid people
I don't think Mike Judge went in trying to make a pro-eugenics movie, but that's sure as shit what a lot of people got out of it. Death of the author and all.
Liberalism to Fascism Pipeline: The Movie
And then there's Anastasia (1997), where the message is literally “communism is bad because it got in the way of the Romanovs having fancy parties and wearing expensive clothes”. The Bolsheviks literally enter the Winter Palace through a magic portal created by Rasputin.
Are they like named as the Bolsheviks in the movie? Or is just implied
No they're not named. But what it does explicitly state is that the discontent against the noble Romanovs was literally fermented by demons, and the male lead in one of the palace servants and helps her and her mother escape. Then in the next scene the opening musical number is the people of
St PetersburgPetrogradLeningrad singing and dancing in the streets at the rumor that a Romanov princess survived, and they quickly shut up when a commissar (hammer and sickle on his cap) looks at them angrily.I also have to say, it's a really strange choice that the two leads (and members of the royal family) are the only characters designed to look like
realuncanny people, and everyone else looks like a caricature.
