It 100% is. This is a movie about war correspondents, with an emphasis on the photogs. It could have taken place in South America, or Sub-Saharan Africa, or the Middle East, or Southeast Asia, in a real or imagined country, in a real or fictionalized war.

I've loved him since he played Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's grandson in the short-lived tv series "New Amsterdam." If you're asking how that's possible, its because the future Jamie Lannister played an immortal.

Jesse Plemons needs to stop starring in psychopath roles 😂 He is always so amazing on screen we might get real close to failing to seperate the actor from the role hehehe.
so apparently you haven't seen him in "FARGO" or "KILLERS of the FLOWER MOON" or "FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS" or "THE POWER of the DOG" then... (to name just a FEW non 'psychopath' turns). 😳
I presumed rural red California probably overthrew the blue cities and some sort of genocide happened afterward. Got to figure which side is the one with the guns and presume that side would win.
Not even close. Plemmons is good, but PSH had way more range to show off in his filmography and was a great loss. Anything from a self depricating loser to a cocky son of a b or just being plain funny and likable, Hoffman got right 👌🏻
That "Nick Offerman without a moustache..." bit very nearly killed me. Pro tip: don't try to drink anything whilst watching these honest trailers; the snicker-jabs are quite whimsical. 😂
I was really disappointed when the reviews came out. I might watch it eventually, but it doesn't sound like it has much to offer me. The movie feels like a waste of a premise. Pretty yet pointless action scenes are boring.
@@196cupcake”waste of premise” is a good way to put it. I kinda get what they were trying to do by solely focusing on the press’ perspective, but not giving us any context for the war made everything seem so meaningless and we had no sense of closure. Like in the end they kill [insert spoiler here] but I’ve been given zero reason to care. Did the war end after that? Who won?
@@justinrodgers9928I think that that’s kind of the point, there is no meaning, there is no closure, the senseless violence doesn’t get wrapped up in a neat bow. I agree though, parts of the movie felt directionless.
@@wagonballz1176 That's what a second civil war would be like. There is not clear issue here like the first one. There is no slavery or clear secession to stop. It won't be north vs south. It'll be rural vs cities and in each state there are plenty of that beef to go around. NYC vs the rest of the state. Rural Cali vs a handful of large cities that dictate their politics, etc. I'm not saying that's a good thing, it's just is what it is.
Outside of the politics not making sense, this film is also kinda tame. It's not bad by any means, it's just not what I wanted. I've been intrigued by a modern American Civil War for a long time, and nothing has scratched my itch outside of an excellent podcast called "It Can Happen Here". Which has a more terrifyingly plausible war that's more complex.
You should check out the DMZ comic series. The TV adaptation unfortunately didn't last long enough to really develop into anything interesting but the comics are a fascinating look at how a civil war could play out.
Phillipines, Brazil, Argentina, most Eastern European countries, Russia, wow the global sociopolitical landscape is pretty much f**ked no matter what angel you look at it from.
I object...Australia has some really weird things. Like that one time a Prime Minister was dragged out to sea and disappeared, and it took them a bit to notice...perhaps on purpose depending on how conspiracy theorist you want to be.
The Australian Prime Minister position was basically a revolving door for the past decade. It's only been the last bit that we've actually had a singular prime minister STAY in power.
THAT'S what you consider weird about Aussie politics? What about the time the Libs tried banning adult content that featured A-cup actresses because they believed it encouraged paedophilia? Or the time Gogh Whitlam got deposed by the US because he didn't bend over for the Seppos?
Awesome review, Honest Trailers, you nailed exactly what's hollow in this movie! They go on and on about how all that matters is getting the picture, without even once looking into the real power of war photos, of what photojournalists hope to ACCOMPLISH by capturing an image. It's a film that says absolutely nothing. "Mmm, war is bad, mkay?" Yeah, except a lot of 'Muricans are convinced they're totally ready for war and that they'd be the ultimate badasses. Garland says "everyone wants stability" bwa ha ha...He's so naive. How many 'Muricans really just want to watch the world burn?
once enough people flee California by voting for higher taxes, they would move to Texas and do the same, thereby putting them in the same boat. This is actually happening but very slowly. In recent years, people are moving to Florida over Texas through.
This film had so many moments. There have been way more violent movies, but that one gunshot from Plemons’ AR-15 rang through the theater and people audibly gasped. Absolutely terrifying.
Journalists have shown themselves to be completely inept at noticing, defining, and defeating fascism in the US. If it gets them clicks they’ll gladly love tweet their own executions while still trying to blame “both sides.”
I feel like doing so neutered the whole concept they were going with. We have this big striking imagery in all the advertisements, and the name CIVIL WAR implying it's a film that won't shy away from portraying the just how divided this country is. (A highly militaristic country, and one that still has a good portion of the nation waving the battle flags of the secessionists from the last civil war). And yet rather than an interesting story about the collapse of safety, or showing how a ramping up in polarization lead to this, the actual Civil War aspect of the story feels more like a backdrop to a war road trip movie. (Also I feel whenever someone says "didn't take any explicit sides", I feel like they're afraid of whatever take showing some uncomfortable truths. Maybe humanizing a type of people that one aggressive side feels is automatically the enemy.)
Civil War was the CSI Miami of war journalism movies. Obviously three random ap photographers lead the seal team into the final battle! Just like how lab techs lead swat teams into raids!
The point is that ANY scenario for a second American civil war would be bad for everyone. It doesn’t matter who started it or why, in the end everyone loses.
The movie HAS a point! Just not the it seems people wanted it to have. People wanted statements and commentary on the current issues of the US and Alex Garland wasn't interested in talking about that.
@@Excalibur01 All of the world. Have you seen Brazil? India? Argentina? The Philippines? A bunch of far-right populists are running the show and the people are falling for it. I swear it's the internet. Each country has its own memes and "Alex Jones" types spreading misinformation.

I thought the title was what killed me but after "Coup, there it is" you hit us with "Somehow, Spectrum survived"
Thanks for validating my total absence of interest in this film
the action scenes were top notch tho
i wish it had more of that “pew pew boom” kind of american film than boring talking american lecture of a film
*Please* do Airplane! (1980)!!
In this civil war they called Captain Nascimento (from Brazil)
Still my favorite Wagner Moura's role.
The Bear Honest Trailer WHEN
Finally I now know who was fighting with whom in the civil war. Thanks for the map.
I'm glad they don't get into specifics. Because social media would have started debates and turned people off from seeing the film.
The jokes for this trailer were top notch
Yeah, somehow, they just are.
You can bing bong brexit out of this one, buddy! 😂
When are we getting a Doom Patrol trailer? Or Titans? Lol
I kind of liked that the movie didn't take any explicit sides or talked about any specific issues. Also love Jesse Plemons.
I feel like doing so neutered the whole concept they were going with. We have this big striking imagery in all the advertisements, and the name CIVIL WAR implying it's a film that won't shy away from portraying the just how divided this country is. (A highly militaristic country, and one that still has a good portion of the nation waving the battle flags of the secessionists from the last civil war). And yet rather than an interesting story about the collapse of safety, or showing how a ramping up in polarization lead to this, the actual Civil War aspect of the story feels more like a backdrop to a war road trip movie.
(Also I feel whenever someone says "didn't take any explicit sides", I feel like they're afraid of whatever take showing some uncomfortable truths. Maybe humanizing a type of people that one aggressive side feels is automatically the enemy.)
Civil War was the CSI Miami of war journalism movies. Obviously three random ap photographers lead the seal team into the final battle! Just like how lab techs lead swat teams into raids!
It's still insane to me that out of all the kids in the amazing show Friday Night Lights only freaking LANDRY went on to become a huge movie star 😂
"Here's a good idea: have a point. It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!" - Steve Martin
The point is that ANY scenario for a second American civil war would be bad for everyone. It doesn’t matter who started it or why, in the end everyone loses.
@@PMbarbieribad? For everyone? HAH, tell that to putin and xi jinping.
@@Pancasilaist8752Lol fair enough, but I think they were referring to the American people
The movie HAS a point! Just not the it seems people wanted it to have. People wanted statements and commentary on the current issues of the US and Alex Garland wasn't interested in talking about that.
@@Pancasilaist8752
I meant in America, of course a lot of external powers would benefit from the fall of the USA.

@@Excalibur01 All of the world. Have you seen Brazil? India? Argentina? The Philippines? A bunch of far-right populists are running the show and the people are falling for it.
I swear it's the internet. Each country has its own memes and "Alex Jones" types spreading misinformation.
This is one of your best ones in a while.
Another two hours saved. Thank you Honest Trailers 👍
I highly recommend this movie 🤪🤟🏻
It’s actually a really good movie
Its like missing Interstellar but sure
It could have been a movie about the war, or it could've been a movie about war photographers, somehow they missed both.
Yes it sucked.
This is the most accurate one yet.
Called a guy British, when he's from NZ only off my 11,500 miles 😅
It’s time to do “Falling Down” with Michael Douglas Mr. Voice!
That would be a masterpiece
I love how that movie is getting more love these days.
This channel is why I knew I had to watch the movie first and then comeback for a good laugh!
Please do an Honest Trailers on Challengers.
I enjoyed the movie way more than i was expecting 😂
The fact that that wasn't even the worst of UK's politicians hits hard
+ The guy he called British is from New Zealand... & we don't have huge shouting matches on our news between politicians other than Farage raising his voice here & there.
@@HarryWessex Wait, who's a New Zealand "British" guy?
@@lewisirwin5363 I've mistook him for someone else
I do have strong feelings about the Futurama clip, it was amazing. Thank you for that.
I'm really proud of who ever wrote "Coup, there it is!" it's just perfect, no notes.
I just laughed out loud. IRL and without hyperbole for at least 20 seconds straight after seeing Kirsten Dunst watch her career collapse in a moment at 1:58 like Ralph when Lisa rejects him.

Give me the chills with the line "Welcome to PlayPaintChill. You just gained honor +2 for following us ! ".
Haha love the Parks and Rec reference thrown in there at the end!
one of the greatest scenes was when one of the characters died during a wildfire, it was sad yet beautiful.
Huh?
