TITLE: Civil War Review - I Saw a Movie So You Didn't Have To 
Развлечения
It was horrible all around a) character motivation = zero b) character say ANYTHING that make sense = nope Say "I'm from Hong Kong" if you wanna die instantly 🤣c) camera angles = bad d) character taking decisions or saying things that make sense AT LEAST % of the time = nope.
Random camera things were done to increase interest. They didn't.
great video but good god almighty...how long is that beard gonna get before birds move in and start nesting?! LOL bwahahaha
I think he grows it out so he can donate it to Jack Murphy.
It's getting to nest levels.
LOL!
His beard is a masterpiece!! I've never seen a beard that fine before.
It's getting there, for sure.
Nest party for 25k subs! Birds included!
I like the green screen glitch in your shirt. Thanks for the review.
Thank You!
I didn't see the journalists as heroes. They were just a vehicle to allow the road trip story and get us plausibly into the specific vignettes.
"plausibly" they are aimless, and their only goal, explained in two sentences, makes zero sense no matter the angle you look at it.
My years old boy write better plots and stories, TRUTHFULLY for real.
The whole film was agenda driven. It's like with the film "Leave The World Behind."@@Flitalidapouet
So the reporters were human MacGuffins 🤣🤣🤣👀🤡🌎
@@horseradishpower9947 A24 is pure agenda made by fart sniffing twatwaffles.
@@horseradishpower9947 What do you think the agenda is?

You saw a movie to make money off the RUclips review you’d make from it, not so anyone else wouldn’t have to see it. RUclipsrs’ opinions of a movie don’t dictate my decisions to watch a movie any more that film critics ever did.
I will be watching this movie, good or bad, because I want to. I will not be watching this review though, simply because of the position the title takes.
I dont do modern "entertainment"
How do you know there are not a lot of journalists out there of doing this job? Did you make a research? I am really curious.
Where can I buy a T-shirt like this?
My friends are horrible people, I mean Magic the Gathering players, and I think this would make a fine gift for them!
LOL... They will love it! I think it was from ThinkGeek or TeePublic... It was also a gift...
A much better executed concept is done and portrayed by Russel Crowe in the, of all things, Apple movie “The Greatest Beer Run Ever”. At least that had the backdrop of the Vietnam War and it starts off as one story and goes into “journalist as heroes” by the end and what they wish they could strive to be.
I am so gladd CC is so willing to sacrifice his time watching bad movies. Thanks for taking one for the team.
Thank you for your sacrifice.
The audience wins.
I win when I make up my own mind and seeing this movie.
Totally agree. Painfully noncommittal in any manner. Moderately well made, but not interesting and no stakes.
Ya, I regret checking this out even just for kicks.
I was watching it on a livestream, ping ponging back and forth
🤔 I might see this movie if there's nothing better available
I suggest rewatching 'The Hunt'.
I'll add it to media list.
F em
Indeed.
I would rather wait when this comes out and not waste my money. I would rather watch a little girl as a vampire attack people
the excellent sound design and visuals are incredible on the big screen. Even this youtuber who has disparaged the film said it was powerful at times. My opinion is the film was excellent.
Thr dumbest thing is Texas and California coming together. Won't happen.
the issue with this movie is that nothing is explained at all things are just happening. If they had given a 5 to 10 minute quick prelude as too what America is in a civil war and addressed key points before truly starting the story movie would've been much better. Things were just happening for the sake of it
@@alexandru5369I’d surmise it was made this way intentionally, same with choosing California and Texas as allies. Doing anything like you suggest would have involved some level of implication that likely would have alienated an unknown percentage of the audience, and probably for the best right now. There have already been plenty of people hesitant to see this expecting their positions/politics to be attacked in the film.
@@alexandru5369 lame
I had no desire to see this film, after Drinkers review and yours Culture, I have less than no desire to see this film. Thank you for taking the hit for me!
Sounds like you are comfortable in your echo chamber, letting someone make up your mind for you instead of seeing a movie and deciding what you think of it yourself.
Haven't been able to get online since Ghostbusters but was glad I could get online for your livestream last night. You mentioned dropping a review for this movie last night.
I hope you enjoyed the stream.
BORING!?! How can you say that? What about when they went dress shopping, and the tension built when she was trying to decide whether she was going to buy the green dress. Were you not entertained? The guy ALMOST bought a hat, too. Whew!
You had a ton more praise then me. I was bored to tears
Well... did you get a nap.. I watched one person fall asleep... forgot to mention that... very few folks in the theater.
@@CultureCasino I couldn't sleep. I was distracted by the underwhelming payoffs for each of the setups
Not a film about war.
If you’re starting there, then you are completely missing the point of the film.
it was marketed as a war film so why shouldn’t people have expected that be the point.
@@Hilaire_Balrog It was marketed as a film.
Not as a war film.
It’s the perspective of the main character(s) that determine the view in which the audience should also see the film through.
That perspective is what set up the theme of a film. If anything, this film is anti-war.
Movie was just eye candy.
Love your closing theme! Staying away from Civil War.
I watched it on the high seas. It was meh my favorite parts were when the "journalists" got deleted.
That did happen. It was very convoluted.
The preview looked stupid I won’t waste money on it
I was very disappointed
i think you missed the point. i would be happy to explain the point. give me a call.
This movie was anything but boring.
Stupid is probably a better word
It’s like a Walking Dead episode on steroids.
People who are saying it is boring missed the point entirely. They are the same movie goers with no critical thinking skills who need the whole story spoon fed to them.
Yes! It was simply BORING! Good thing I saw it on a free streaming service. 2/10
What rock did you crawl out of! WHAT, are you blind??
I'm not a Tim Pool fan but stumbled on his "review" of this and decdided to see what he thought. He did see more politics than you, but he also thought it was a fair representation of the adrenaline junky/moronic nature of some of the journos he has worked around (which is NOT a compliment). And he addressed the movie's "factions" making no sense and noted an earlier promo map had the states aligned more rationally around present political trends. Perhaps that part was rewritten to try to make it look like the director wasn't picking on his political enemies...? 🤔 Anyway, not my cup of hemlock, so not planning to see it anyway.
I bet there's a "Woke" cut.
You don't even know what that word means.
His first film was better
.
Journalists as heroes 🤮
journalists and freedom of press are a necessary part of a healthy democracy. It might behoove you to criticize the conglomerates that own the vast majority of the media in the USA for the divisive position it is in.
The reason so many things were left vague is because the writer/director did not want to spoon feed the audience (he mentioned this in an interview). You were supposed to make your own inferences about what started the war. Enough information had been given to tell you the President was a fascist by taking a third term. Enough information was given to tell you Jesse Plemons' character was just a racist, using the cover of war to kill indiscriminately, as he was clearly not a part of any official military on either side. It was heavily implied that some people already walk among us who are just waiting for the chance to do the same (car wash scene, golf course scene, boogaloo boys scene). It did not feel linked because it was supposed to feel like chaos, which is what would happen if a Civil War did break out here. I agree with you about the Jessie scene at the end but I think they were trying to show how horrified and frozen with fear she was at the beginning of the movie but had become hardened and unfazed by the end. I agree it did not play well at all. I was shaken at several scenes but maybe because I live in Florida and we have active Nazis waving swastika flags on our overpasses and daily threats of violence by white supremecists on our local news on a weekly basis.
taking a third term while u constitutional would not make one a “fascist”, a tyrant, sure, but. It automatically a fascist. people throw that term around without understanding what the ideology really is.
@@Hilaire_Balrog goodness, this makes no sense
Culture had to "tap" all his green mana for this video! Thanks for the review, and I'll pass on this movie with "constipated" Dunst. 🤣
The movie left you with a whole in your heart?
Green mana apparently matches your Chroma Key.
First off, beard is awesome! Keep your signature style. As for the film, since the Obamas were reported as being involved in producing it, I am giving it a pass. If Trump produced it, I would pass on it too. I don't like political messaging, regardless of how subtle, in my entertainment unless it serves the actual story and doesn't replace the story. If you get conspiratorial on this film, there are those that claim that before a major event like war, pandemic, terror attacks, etc. there are films and TV shows and even editorial articles in the media to sort of "prepare" society for those events. One channel last fall discussed the use of cyber-attacks on infrastructure in this film and we have more than a few of those real or suspected happening. Not sure if the cyber-attacks happened in this film as the channel claimed or not, again, no plans to ever watch it. These days I grade films into three categories, the big screen, TV, and trashcan. Few films like Top Gun Maverick deserve the big screen. The filming, the story, the acting deserves even demands a big screen to take it all in and to really immerse yourself in it. A large portion of films today feel and look like a TV show rather than a film. Stories are shallow and use worn out plots and resolutions. Acting is standard or bland as Kevin Costner when he doesn't have an excellent co-star to play off of. Story twists so standard I can pretty much predict who is what and what will happen before the second act. For instance, the ever-worn-out idea that the true bad guy of a film is almost always one of the first people seen and close to the "hero" of the story. Crime stories are especially bad for this. Unfortunately for today's viewers the bulk of entertainment falls into the last group, the trashcan. No explanation needed if you are remotely not in a cult of whatever issue is the flavor of the day. Enjoy the channel and appearances on other channels CC. Keep up the awesome work.
Thank you for your kind words. This film was predictable and I have never seen an actress be so committed to such a dour facial contortion for an entire film. What's strange is it was just an amalgam of war scenes from other countries.
A civil war without some causes and history behind it would just be a computer game shoot-them-up. The reason I'd go to a civil war movie (either the first 1860s one, or the possible second) is my love of history. Journalists lost their luster back in the 1990s. I lost any faith and trust I had for them, back when the Blue dress was proven to actually exist. At least the ally dividing line could make sense... California and Texas? in which dimension of reality? --- certainly, not this one!
It would be political suicide to suggest to Texans to support California.
Filmmakers: Damned if they do and damned if they don’t. I suppose the people who watched this review would have preferred this story take real world issues in this nation and turn that into a Civil War film, demonizing one side, killing its potential box office and further alienating an already strained nation.
Instead of, you know, just trying to provide some entertainment.
Anyone: Have you seen Civil War?
Skyrim belongs to the Nords!
What?
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden Turn your volume up if you can't hear.
@@maestrochi I hear just fine.
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden Glad to hear it.
Thanks for taking the hit for us CC! 😂
Not gonna waste my time on this. Journalists haven't been heroes or even risked much of anything since at least Vietnam.
Christiane Amanpour? Ben Brown? Dan Eldon? Richard Engel? You can not be serious with this comment. This is so disrespectful.
Really saved me here, I usually like A24 films and was excited for this one but man, this director is something else. Texas and California united? Wishful thinking or just plain stupidity? A movie called “Civil War” written as a love letter to the same disgusting people that are 90% responsible for society being literally on the brink of a real civil war is not only the most contradictory but also the most disingenuous idea someone could come up with in today’s world, absolutely disgusting
So instead of seeing it and forming your own opinion, you will just let a reviewer make up your mind for you? That is how we stay in echo chambers. To be clear, this is not about the main stream media at all. I happen to agree with you on that front. This is about war journalism which is a completely different thing. Maybe give this one a shot.
@@floridafamilyfun1597 I get it, and I liked his film “Men” so I was really looking forward to this one but with today’s games and movies, it’s more of a case of saving my money and time instead of wasting it on something I’ll either hate or that just won’t do anything for me. So I actively seek spoilers and reviews before deciding on whether or not I’ll watch/play/buy it. Passed on a lot of opportunities to buy a PS5 because there’s simply not a single game on this gen that I want to play (that might change with GTA VI but it’s unlikely I’ll buy a console for a single game). My family is pretty well of and I’ve just started my first job so it’s not a matter of necessity, it’s more about voting with my wallet plus avoiding stuff that doesn’t interest me. From what I heard about this film, it lacks purpose and meaning and the message behind it is not something I can get behind so that’s a skip. I don’t even know if you’ll be able to read this because for some reason YT hides all my replies unless you look at it in your notifications on the bell icon.
instead of blaming journalists maybe look to the few owners of the media companies then you will see the problem. In fact many of my personal friends who were journalists are now working in commercial jobs owned by these very companies to make a living. We also can blame the general populous a bit too for getting suckered into it with their hate and negativity while being distracted as these oligarchs steal their future. The film was excellent. The comments here and on the A24 trailer really prove the film's point.
@@floridafamilyfun1597 I was looking forward to this film since I really liked “Men” by this same director but from all I’ve seen about this one (not from only one reviewer), it lacks purpose and frankly has a message that I just can’t get behind.
@@brendtbarbur2318 most msm journalists are complicit with their oligarch overlords . They know who pays them and why and they are fine and happy with it.
