Just Culture #2: Civil War Movie Review
Just Culture brings you reviews and thoughts from all spectrums of culture in a timely and untimely fashion.
This review first appeared in Just Thoughts #11. Here’s a revisited review with links to the trailer.
I haven’t familiarized myself with the work of war photography, but the movie is an ode to them. Assuming it highlights that trade's good, bad, and ugly with exaggerated precision. In contrast to the movie Interstellar, it better captures the actual edges of human nature. Unlike Interstellar, the movie doesn’t touch subjects such as love, but rather greed, ambition, and vulgarities humans are capable of.
It’s a civil war in America, but it does not discuss what causes it, letting the audience’s imagination fill in the blanks. That makes the experience even more immersive, adding to the fact you won’t see any next-generation armory in the movie. All military gear and arsenals are human-piloted, making the whole “future” seem less sci-fi. With the things that went on during Trump’s presidency, you might think this is an alternative version of history, not a possible future.
The movie is unique, the acting is stellar, and it will be the type of movie you refer to when describing other films in the future. It’s worth all the hype, but don’t go watch it before noon on a weekday. It will just mess with your mood for the rest of the day. I can tell you that out of experience.
