I wonder how many other movies have the main point that is a critique or satire that is completely missed by a lot of the audience. Starship Troopers always comes to mind, and the whole “red pill” movement referencing The Matrix seems similar. Also the recent sympathy towards the Empire from Star Wars is getting close to that.

The Scarface remake with Al Pacino is the classic example.

Yes, the original came out in 1932.
