I really enjoyed this. Alot of people mad about the accuracy or focus of the movie and its just like breh, the Civil War is really just a backdrop for the relationships in the movie. The combat in the movie is breathtaking and awe inspiring. Sound design is on 10. Including the soundtrack choices.. its a total shock to your senses.
There's some levity but also a moment in the movie with Meth Damon where everyone in my theatre was laughing and thought shyt was sweet and from that moment forward i didnt hear no laughing, it was just pure shock and awe from that point until the credits rolled. Its really not about the Civil War but moreso how divisive people can get, how truly close to the edge of pure chaos we really are as Americans, and how far people will go for their passions. I loved it and can't wait to watch again. At just under 2hours it moves at a nice clip.

Moira’s character didn’t even check on her. That shyt was too cold blooded
she lowkey looked happy
This shyt was intense.
Given the climate right now, perfect. It didn't preach or make shyt political that could serve as a rallying cry for any side of the political spectrum. The internet message boards and comment sections aren't going to get what they want with this one which is why I loved it. Don't take this movie too seriously brehs and you'll like it. The lead up reading reddit and other forums irked me with the questioning of Cali and Texas actually joining forces. I can give people that answer easily but will allow yall to ponder it
