The Uncivil War: America Divided

Great honest view of both parties, packed into a good and interesting story. Talking about political views is always critical, that's why I loved this movie. I liked how I was able to understand both sides (minus the violence). This film is a wake up call for everyone to respect each other's reality. My reality might not be your reality and we have to respect that. We have to at least try to understand the other view. This way we can stay united 'not divided' <3. I hope a lot more people see it this way, but I think we are getting there. Because we need to put love first at all times. 'Make each other, don't break each other :)

This is a story about how American divided by political views. The political subject is in the aftermath of the George Floyd.killing by a policeman. The movie centers on how this effects of the longtime friendship of a conservative white man and his best friend who is black. Unfortunately, the exchanges were very superficial and there was never really an exchange of ideas or meetings of the mind. No one in the movie seems to change their position, they just stop talking about it. The film had a good idea, but squandered the opportunity ty being so superficial. More annoying was the dating overlay where cliche women with lots of cleavage and scenes with girls in bikini's having pseudo political dialog. It was suprising to see women depicted in this manner in 2024. A good try but it did not inspire thought or dialog. American was divided before the movie - and after.

Really enjoyed the movie. Well written, thought provoking with some humor as well. Great acting throughout. David Siracusa knocked it out of the park with this film. 100% recommend this movie. Liked the character development with the main actors and loved how Byron came back and stood up for his friend against the mob despite their disagreements and different viewpoints. Wanted to cheer for Byron at that moment. Not an easy topic to make a movie out of but the story was compelling and relatable. The movie does take you back to that time and how divided the Country was (or at least how the media portrays the Country). Great scenery of Tampa Bay as well. Go see this movie!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the premiere of "The Uncivil War". There is no way to paint a complete picture in the time frame that a movie presentation allows, but the writer David Siracusa and director Andrew Huff did a great job in offering a dual perspective without blame or shame on either side. I can certainly appreciate their open-mindedness and their desire to help viewers see both points of view. I was a little surprised that clips from the preview and sizzle real were left out of the final edit, as I was expecting to still see those missing scenes when the movie ended. I do understand why the clips were left on the cutting room floor and replaced with other scenes, as it could have caused unnecessary controversy that went against the movie's original intent. Again, I really enjoyed it. GREAT work!!

It's a fairly balanced account of summer 2020, but the lessons are still contemporary- spending too much time on social media and letting politics divide yourself from others isn't healthy, it could even kill you. While it leans conservative and ignores some points for more succinct storytelling, there were liberal viewpoints addressed. The dating aspect is very cute and lends a lot of humor to what could be a much more serious tragedy. Most in the audience couldn't help wanting a Pina Colada. ;) Another highlight to any resident or fan of the Tampa Bay area is trying to locate just where each scene was shot. It's great to see our backyard on screen.
