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.
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.

No idea what the point of this was??? I spent $7 to rent this and as far as I'm concerned it was pointless... just a character study of several people in a no win situation and a little gay stuff thrown in...
If there was a negative value available to rate this movie, I would give it less than 0. The premise of this movie is so absurd that it deserves to be thrown immediately in a dustbin of history.
And there is no pun intended here. It is not so much a philosophical question, but rather: what do you want to from the movies you watch? Do you want them to be different? To make you guess where they are going instead of being able to guess every single beat? And yes there is predictable things in this too of course, but it is quite out there overall - again no pun intended.
Considering some of the decisions made recently by the Supreme Court in America, I wouldn't call this future right here that dystopian or too much in the future. Fortunately there are still more than enough people fighting the good fight. And by that I mean that metaphorically speaking, not actual fighting.
Actual fighting and action scenes can be seen here though. Because after all this is supposed to be a movie that even with the heart on the right place and a good message, has to entertain you (while schooling you - which admitedly is not the best plan). There are also some flaws in the acting department and some other things you have to suspend your disbelief with ... if you are able ... then maybe you'll find the idea is strong enough to carry the whole thing too.
