No I am not Russian, nor is my observation in any way a defense of Russia, in reality the Russian government does way worse things than what's in the movie. And yes obviously Hollywood films have been spoofing and villainizing Russians for many decades; but here they went the extra mileage to be as purposefully revolting and degrading as possible. Russian people as a whole are pretty much presented either as trash, or at best as American-supporting trash. You'd expect to see a movie made like this during the Cold War, serving not as artistic expression but as one-note propaganda. When is Hollywood going to make a movie about US drone-operators who bomb entire villages and hospitals killing women and children in their hunt for the enemy? Is that not worth exploring? Well there was Eye in the Sky ( www.imdb.com/title/tt2057392/?ref_=nv_sr_1) that did brought up the question but not to the extent you described. Glad someone else remembers that. Good movie.
