...did not glorify violence but, like Brett Easton Ellis' books, showed the cold, impotent & dehumanizing effects of violence.
Choose any of the Michael Winner Charles Bronson avenger movies, and that's gratuitous, very doubtful morality message stuff violence, IMHO.

However, in addition to finding FC a monotonous film, I felt that it depicted male violence for fun and profit as something that aspired to be a popular trend. I'm not strictly speaking about the rather limp anti-climactic outcome of the film or any statement that it's creators may have been trying to drive home to the audience, but rather the monkey see, monkey do appeal of it's violence as trendy & cool.I just found this film to be a digusting exercise in social nihilism with no redeeming qualities. Maybe it's just my impression, but it seems rather sad that normally intelligent folks like tinear regard such trash as "well done," while in the same breath denounce a much better film like Sin City as having no socially redeeming qualities.
