It’s ambiguity adds to the mystery of the movie

Thank you for your kind words. We use OBS for our live streams and use it for all graphic layouts. The thumbnail is just a composite made in photoshop. Thanks for watching, and I hope we hear from you again. - Patrick

It seems people are describing the movie that they wanted it to be rather than the movie that they actually saw! ☆☆☆☆☆ ❤'d it! Great review! ❄ 🌎 ❄

Thank you so much John. Great comment which perfectly sums up my issue with some of the complaints. Hope to catch you on the next video, thanks for taking the time to comment. - Patrick

The closest thing that was a scary movie based on a real war was 5 Days of War by Renny Harlin. Of course with a much lower budget and Val Kilmer.

This movie is a beautiful example of an empty signifier. The left likes it, the right likes it, even Russia likes it.

Some of the left and right seem to hate it too. However, judging by who they are, that might be because they profit from negativity no matter what the topic. So I'd say your point stands. Thanks for watching and taking thetimetocomment. - Patrick

I think that is the point. It’s a commentary about the idiocy of modern political discourse.

I really liked the films soundtrack.

It's something we didn't get to talk about, but I liked it too. The song choices were bold and offbeat, which I think suited the unsettling nature of the story. Thanks for the comment 👍- Patrick

There was a lot that this movie could have delved into as the reasons for a civil war. None of that was mentioned except that the current POTUS was on his 3rd term. This just became a very violent road trip by 4 journalists from NYC to DC with lots of random, violent situations thrown in. Even at the end, the WF and other rebel forces had all the tanks, attack helicopters and missiles while the defending Federal Forces had none? How is that possible that the US Army had no tanks or Apache copters left to defend the White House or didn't evacuate the President to a safer location?

For me, the movie could not have been what it was if an explanation of how things got where they did had been given. I wont argue against the idea that there are some plot holes. The President not being in a bunker is an example. However, absolute accuracy and fidelity to 'real life' is not the point of the movie for me. Thanks for checking out the video. We might not agree completely but still very much appreciate you commenting. Hope to hear from you on another video. - Patrick

Because the Prez had lost all support, except for those who had no road back.

@@HearUsOut or that the WF soldiers would just execute an SS agent who had her hands raised in surrender. Then go on to drag the President out and just shoot him too. Unbelievable!

Great movie!!

Agreed 👍 -Patrick

The marketing paid off, and making the movie apolitical certainly helped with getting more people to watch. Personally I think that’s a cop out because while I’m not on either side, I at least want something to take away from a war movie that is obviously politically motivated. I don’t mind either message in movies as long as the message is relevant and expertly conveyed. But I still think the movie was good.

Thanks for watching and especially for taking the time to share your thoughts. I understand your feelings and although I've heard similar perspectives I think you articulate that point of view better than anyone else so far. I guess the reason I don't feel not picking a side was a cop out is that the message was still very strongly political, just not in line with an A or B agenda. Highlighting the outcome of allowing politics to run away from common sense creating tragic absurdity that could only be a result of ignoring humanity for political ideology was the point in some ways. Glad that we both enjoyed the movie even though we had slightly different reads on it. Cheers for sharing and I hope we hear from you again. -Patrick

@@HearUsOut Patrick, your response to this comment is thoughtful and generous. As for me, I don't watch movies for a political message. For that, I will watch a political speech. I felt like this movie almost belongs in the horror genre.

Thanks Freda, I'm not sure if I said it on air or off, but I made a similar statement about this being closer to a horror thriller than a political commentary. Comments from people like you make my day. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. I look forward to hearing from you again - Patrick

The way the movie avoids politics is masterful. A good movie makes you feel something and this one did that
