Avis à la une
While there are a couple of adequate aspects to the film, such as the reasonable lighting, basically competent camera work, it's a fundamentally difficult to watch movie, both in terms of the story telling which is laboured, and quite frankly the premise of the film, as pointed out in many of the negative reviews here.
The characters are unlikeable, while at the same time being one-dimensional, existing only to serve as an unsubtle representation of what the writers feel are positive characteristics - which can be summarised as being of non-European ancestry, muslim, homosexual, or politically left wing.
The counterpoint to this is a depiction of those who do not share those characteristics as being evil, to the point of being comical. Think a depiction of Germans in a 1950s movie about World War 2, in terms of subtlety.
Dialogue is uninspiring. And often unpleasant, with scene after scene of foul-mouthed diatribes by primary characters, who seek to project those ideas onto the chosen bad guys - while actually demonstrating their own internalised hatred of 'others' outside their group.
And this is where the film becomes more of a political lecture, instructing the audience that there are good people, and then there are bad people - who are white, heterosexual, and Christian. With such heavy-handedness the film manages to score an own-goal, by being the intolerance it allegedly aimed to reject.
How you treat this film will depend on your political viewpoint, for example if you are left wing, then this will serve to reinforce your world view that white, straight men are evil. If you are politically right wing, you will shake your head at the misrepresentation of reality. Everyone in between will simply switch off after 15 minutes.

The movie has a weird story does not make any sense. I don't know what the movie is trying to prove. It has a bad plot which is dragged for 1hr 30mins. Please save yourself time don't watch this movie.
Surprising watchable. Obviously some people are going to take offense and feel attacked, triggered maybe, but it's not that bad.
The plot doesn't seem that far fetched of a reality. The right wing fascist beliefs and brainwashing in the world today could lead us somewhere like this. Xenophobia is strong in the US and a lot of other places.
The acting also isn't the best but Michael Raymond-James did a decent job. It does seem like more editing could have made this a little better. Maybe cut the length down about 20 min or so. Nadine Malouf very good as well.
January 6th is a good example of what might be coming.
6/10.

This one gave me more enjoyment than it should have because it's just so cringe and you know that the writers really thought they were being clever. It's like watching a person lacking in self awareness dunking on themselves over and over again while thinking they look cool. If I have one thing nice to say about the film its that i think some of the actors are pretty talented (especially Michael Raymond-James and Nadine Malouf). I had seen Raymonde-James before in some other stuff I liked and the Gabe scenes were probably my favourite... and despite the garbage plot i found myself liking the Zabi/Gabe characters the most. The conversations in the barn were like a refuge of sanity in contrast to the idiot-level takes spouted in the rest of the film. Maybe that was the point, who knows? Either way i wouldnt recommend this to very many people because there are just so many things wrong with the plot and overall message being pushed.
A good premise. Timely and terrifying. Too bad they couldn't follow thru with a plausible script. Why in the world would people who want a White, Straight, christian America prevent those who are not from leaving the country?? Major plot holes, lousy character development, tedious dialogue. I couldn't wait for it to end.
