Rightwing Terrorists Are Never That Bright
As a thriller, it's entertaining in spite of huge plot holes. It would be far better if the bad guys had been obsessed for personal or psychological reasons. But then this film couldn't pander to right wing conspiracy beliefs.
IRL right wing terrorists are pretty stupid and obvious. The OKC bomber rented a truck under his own name. Ruby Ridge terrorists got their own kids killed in a standoff with feds. Jan 6 coup plotters were dumb enough to livestream their attacking cops.
But no, in this one (and I'm not spoiling anything), there is a needlessly elaborate plot that takes months and requires every single detail go exactly right.
Not believable at all, unless you already are a conspiracy nut. But entertaining if you turn your brain off.
