Watch it? Rent it? Skip it?

Watch it! That was an interesting take on a fictious civil war in the United States. The movie follows reporters who are traveling to Washington DC hoping to interview the President who has turned the military on civilians. It’s graphic at times. Disturbing most of the time. For those of you who are carelessly talking about a civil war you might want to take a couple of hours to see what you might get if it really happens.

Kirsten Dunst was fantastic. Wagner Moura, who played Pablo Escobar in Narcos, had a disturbing scene where he silently screams after members of the press, and his friends, were executed by the President’s supporters. That scene has stuck with me. Sound wasn’t needed for this scene.

But I was impressed with the sounds of the gunfire in the theatre. Unless you have a 7.1 sound system at home you may not experience the same affect. It is worth the effort to see it in the theater.

Go watch it before it leaves. It will not be the same at home.
