As a middle eastern person (I'm Arabic, not Persian, but I am sensitive to this sort of thing) I'm not sure how they could have done better without making the movie two hours longer.

This is the first movie I've seen in a long time where it wasn't horrible.

Also I'm not sure how portraying saving a bunch of diplomats from the very real torture and imprisonment of a very real, rather shitty regime as positive is jingoistic. The religious revolution in Iran was not nice.

Nothing Americans do is ever allowed to be shown as even remotely positive. Ever.

Oh, please. You had better be being sarcastic. Americans are shown as Heroic Saviours of the Day on a regular basis, and American Values as what benighted natives everywhere really, really want and need.

Be that as it may... The Iranian revolution wasn't very nice.
