This tells us what will happen if Trump wins or looses the election

Movie wasn't what I expected. No explanation on why there is a Civil War. Don't know who is who. Movie was about a group of photographers, more than anything. It had a non-realistic story line except for the ending, when the main character / photographer gets screwed over. This review is coming from a photographer. I tried to give A24 another chance, but the majority of their movies are horrible.

Need to see it in a theater to get the full immersion. Will definitely make you hope we as a nation never descend into that.

It was a great movie….it makes you think. The director did a great job. You should check out some of his other work.

People wake up This is where we are heading

Good idea, bad execution. Minimal character development and was underwhelming compared to what the trailer portrayed it to be

Marvel's Studios version was wayyyy better.

Literally one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen. Save your cash.

A movie that everybody really needs to see and consider where we stand as a country are.

Trailer for movie is misleading. Its not the movie I went to see

WACK MOVIE WITH AN UNCLEAR PLOT.

I’ve never heard so many people snoring in a movie before.

As a war veteran, this. hits. HARD! it can happen but for those who don't face reality, you'll never understand. War. is. HELL. People die. The beginning hit really close to home. Great visual and sound effects. Learn from history or else it'll repeat itself!

Best movie of the year!

1 hour and 45 minutes to watch the press follow around the so called Civil War without getting an actual backstory. Come on guys, give the fans more of a backstory.

Trailer is deceiving, not the movie it portrayed. Awful plot. Pointless agenda with no background info other than journalism is challenging. Oh yeah…. and the music didn’t fit the scene(s).

boring

This movie was action packed from the start. one of the best movies I've seen in a very very long time. This was way worth the watch.

The movies is very slow with little to no action. The best part was the last 20 minutes and best I say very loosely. 👎

Trash movie

very slow with only 20 minutes of action at the very end. The entire movie is dialogue between reporters who say they work for "what's left of the New York Times" For such a great movie title, it was a let down. Not worth it to see in the theatre.

excellent movie that the country needs. big thanks for the actors and director.

Vague and generic storyline, after all the hype.

…not what you expect.

it was ok, slow at the beginning, but it did get better by the end.

Not realistic

gross

Kinda hard to follow who was who sometimes, but an interesting storyline

Amazing yet terrifying movie! Sound and picture are superb! It was haunting, terrifying and a must watch! Definitely recommend!

Bad ending

If you go in to see a war movie like red dawn, you’re going to be disappointed. However, the movie is very good

The trailer baits you into thinking it’s a good movie

Disappointing. No background on the story and horrendous music choice

Not at all what I expected, and yet it was a lot better than I expected. I really thought this was going to be some cheesy Red Dawn style movie. I was on the edge of my seat with the story and also enjoyed the great visual effects.

A24 is a hit or miss on films. This was ok.

Eh

Completely disappointing. There’s no story, just following 3 journalists who travel to DC to interview the first journalist who gets to interview the president. Movie was slow, the actions scenes lacked action. Doesn’t even give any backstory to why civil war broke out.

Waste of money

disappointing

Dumbest movie ever. Worst thing I've seen in years...maybe ever. Save your time, save your money, stay away. I want my 2 hours back.

The story was just ok but the visuals were really good

it was okay, it mad no sense from a political stand point.

had to walk out before it was done. way to graphic and morbid

Mid

A grim & grisly look at the future

Boring. First movie I walked out on.

This movie should have never been made. It’s gross, has inappropriate timed 60’s music, terrible plot, and nowhere can entertainment or education be found. We deserve refunds.

Kirsten dunst is my favorite character

First hour of the movie could’ve been cut out and it would’ve made no difference. Most of the movie was very slow with little plot development, but then occasional short tense scenes.

The movie had no story line on why there was a civil war and why states had succeeded. It was not at all what I expected. The movie was just about photojournalists and had nothing to due with a civil war except they were photographing it.

It isn’t what those people will think it is. It’s something better, more timely, and more thrilling — a thoroughly engaging war drama that’s more about people than about politics.

While bound to spark hundreds of think pieces, Alex Garland’s stirring Civil War will undoubtedly go down, too, as one of the most provocative films of the year. It’s also an early contender for one of the best, offering a stunning warning: no matter what the cause, war is hell.

The Film Stage

Garland may have just delivered one of the most vicious and unrelenting watches of the year, one that I’ll keep debating and untangling both in my head and with others for a good long while.
