Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ERNURSE: OMG, cant people just go watch a movie for some explosions and shootem up stuff without going psycho political. Not everything has hidden messages. Q didnt make this film. Nobody with a brain can observe what's been coming out of Hollywood over the past 10 years and not understand that EVERYTHING they put out places their political views front and center, and that any quality to be found in the end product's story is purely an afterthought. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Fulcrum-5: People who've seen it so far say it's basically "politically beige", with little exploration of the reasons and identities of the factions, and is more about the plucky band of journalists experiencing an American civil war. This is the number one red flag in my book. Any movie that portrays journalists as the fucking good guys is highly suspect . |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By SnappleFacts: Yall are crazy I think it looks great! But I can also be entertained without having to read between the lines of everything. A24 has put out great flicks and I hope this one is too. Departure from the cave Socrates then supposes that the prisoners are released. A freed prisoner would look around and see the fire. The light would hurt his eyes and make it difficult for him to see the objects casting the shadows. If he were told that what he is seeing is real instead of the other version of reality he sees on the wall, he would not believe it. In his pain, Socrates continues, the freed prisoner would turn away and run back to what he is accustomed to. |

Yesterday a poster said it wasn't political and gave a not so good review, but GD will guarantee and assume otherwise.

It was not possible to determine if the president was right or left, or if the western forces are right or left.
Everybody is just shown as violent, we never know why they're fighting. One scene of some ethnic cleansing type stuff but it isn't clear what faction is doing it. The journalists are the protagonists but they are shown as very callous and exploitative of violence. All the users talking about "episodes" are talking about something else. This is a movie. |

If it's actually about a civil war, in America, then it's political by default. There has to be two different sides to any war...right? I'm going to presume in this movie it's left vs right.
