American Carnage

It's a movie violently made in Trump's image. What if Trump were way more evil and disgusting? The answer is simple : a very interesting story will be born. Although the ending is rather predictable, I can still enjoy this movie a lot. Give it a go, you won't regret watching this one.

Well, if you are like me who watched almost thousand movies and all the good ones and you ran out of movies to watch, this one will not disappoint you. The political discourse is well established and relevant, the characters are likable and fun, the plot evolves mathematically perfect way. The scenes are well-shot. I mean it is good for fun, just grab some driks and sit on your favourite couch. It feels like the director, actors and the crew didnot want to scam the audience, instead they just delivered a decent job, instead they did a good job, the best the is possible for to be called as a watchable fun flick.

I'm seeing a lot of reviews complaining about this film being unrealistic, stupid, cheesy, etc. Well....duh!

The plot basically tells you up front that this is an unrealistic, completely fantastical, outrageous story without any promises of intellectual social commentary or political agenda.

So if you're watching this expecting ultra realism, and deep character driven exposition you've set yourself up for disappointment.

There is some genuine comic relief with a couple of the characters and Jenna Ortega, as always, is a bright spot of the film with her typical snotty and rebellious attitude

If you actually take the time to WATCH the film and understand everything it turns out there is actually some relevant social commentary regarding the treatment of the elderly, "weak", or undesirables of society and how large corporations and the government see the general public as simply a means to an end. That end being financial gain.

The fact is, this film delivers what is promised and nothing more. It is a comical and unrealistic fantasy made simply to entertain. There MAY be a message buried in the mix but that can be avoided and ignored easily and you can enjoy the film for the stupid and humorous ride it is meant to be.

The concept of the movie is a wild one. I definitely didn't expect the big reveal. It's a new angle on a twist in a horror movie thats built around immigrants. Lol, you can also tell they aimed a few parts at Trump lol.

I feel like this movie was not meant to win any awards, it was a playful low budgeted film thats supposed to entertain you. Which it did. The Chemistry between the cast was spot on too. Jenna is always fantastic and My boy, Jorge is dope too.

I gave it a 7. I think I rated it correctly. It wasn't too out there, it wasn't a gore fest. It was good story telling and fun at the same time.

American Carnage was a good watch, especially if you like movies using political satire, like Hunt, etc. For those among us who believe equality should be everyone's right, and don't agree with the backwards direction the christofascist minority is trying to take the U. S. today, this film is a bitter pill in that respect. As a whole the film was well acted, the practical effects were excellent, and the story, it wasn't unique, but worked well. I enjoyed American Carnage.
