## Rankin returns with inflammatory sequel
Director Kyle Rankin follows his 2020 school-shooter thriller 'Run Hide Fight' with a standalone sequel distributed by right-wing platform The Daily Wire.
## The Daily Wire's trolling project
The film is more an act of trolling than sincere filmmaking, aiming to 'own the libs' and antagonize Muslims while parroting The Daily Wire's right-wing views.

> More an epic act of trolling than a sincere creative endeavor
## Shoddy filmmaking undermines the message
The execution is so poorly done that neither liberals nor Muslims will likely seek it out to assess whether they should be offended.
## Reductive characters across the board
The film's comically reductive treatment of characters, regardless of their partisanship, ensures its transgressions are largely artistic rather than political.
## Mostly unworthy of outrage
Despite its Islamophobic promotional campaign, the film's poor quality renders it largely unworthy of the outrage it attempted to stoke.
## Key takeaway

A poorly made film designed to provoke rather than entertain, with shoddy execution that undermines its own inflammatory intent.
