Another woke piece of trash. Girl-boss, evil white villain... everything fits the formula.
And to the oversensitive: the criticism of "evil white villain" doesn't imply that all villains must be non-white. But there is a pattern that fits today's PC racial politics that requires the villain, in most cases, to be white while the hero is generally some perceived-as-oppressed class—female, non-white, whatever. Gotta get those racial/sexual politics right! That's why I saw "Hobbs & Shaw" as something of a relief: it was a dumb action movie, but Idris Elba, a talented actor who has played many sorts of roles in his illustrious career, heroic and malefic, made for a great villain in that movie. And it broke the PC mold.
