If they give more attention to the film’s moral and psychological themes than to the body count, it might be a winner.

“Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about.” – Chesterton
