I saw it. I took my wife and young son who wanted to see it because I love him. It was a great and memorable day with my family. That guy was the best character in the movie. He was the only thing that saved it for me.

It wasn't "toxic masculinity", it was just masculinity. The writers tried to make him dumb and make the women super smart but it fell flat. The women came off like bitches and annoying while the dumb (and awesome) guy stole the show.

Spoilers:

At one point at the end where I actually laughed he tells the male kid friend of his, "Viaje con dios. That means: Thank you, brother." and the woman co-star says in typical woman know it all fashion, "No it doesn't."

Any other time it would have ended there with a big laugh from the chicks because of course, but the writers actually (maybe unintentionally) did a good job.

Jason Momoa's character (The big badass masculine and "dumb" guy) grabs the little boy's face and says, "Look at me. Don't listen to her. Yes, it does." Again the chick says, "Nooo, it doesn't." and Jason just nods sagely and calmly says again, "Yes, it does."

I know I'm going pretty deep on this but it is "cinema" (technically), and it might actually say something about muh toxic masculinity that the author doesn't quite intend: Men are done and we don't care. We don't even care if we're wrong anymore. The fact is we're going to say, "Don't listen to her, this is the way it is."

Viaje con Dios means, "Go with God" (basically, it's actually Journey with God - but, who cares.) The point is this scene between an actual testosterone packed masculine man and a little boy actually reflects what was important between a man and a young boy: Guidance and Paternity. If the writers wanted this to come off as some woman know it all moment they missed the mark. What it did was remind men that it doesn't matter what the woman says. He's expressing something heartfelt and true. Women may not get it, but it's important. "Don't listen to her. Listen to me: Thank you brother."

It was the best part of the whole movie.

>Viaje con dios

''Travel with God.'', what a charming phrase.

Fabius is right. I took the kids, and it was fine. The latest Batman movie was more embarrassingly cringe than the Minecraft movie.

/Jason Momoa's character never stopped fighting.

Does the movie explain how villagers are jews and ender men are tall blacks that steal things and can't swim?

Funny you say this, I’m sure the (((Hollywood studios))) are taking this opportunity to detract from the unfathomably based premises of Minecraft (and yes it is intentional if you know anything about the creator).

 

Minecraft is hugely influential on young people, probably more than anything in this generation - of course they will want to subvert it.

This same writer screamed chicken jockey and gave a standing ovation along with all the other infantilized adults who saw this drivel.

The nations of the west are crumbling and being overthrown at light speed due to lack of "toxic masculinity ".
