American Carnage

Incredibly boring movie... terrible acting, terrible writing... I volunteered to go help my daughter with something just so I could get away from it for 5 minutes. Whoever was in charge of the sound mix should never work another day in their life... the score at times is so loud is drowns out 99% of the dialogue. Not that that matters cuz everything said in this movie is garbage... watching it on mute is probably the best way to view this film.... If you really want to view it correctly mute the film and then gouge your eyes out... and you're set.

The film can be described in one word - trash. I don't know who wrote this script and who agreed to shoot it.

This is the moral here - all white pagans, egoists, cannibals. While emigrants are cool heroes.

I have nothing against other peoples, but this is clearly overkill. And stupid jokes just finish the project.

Really disappointed in this film.

Started off with potential and then they get to te Care Home and it just gets stupid and lazy.

Some really irritating cliche characters.

It tried its best to have a message but because it was Troma level bad it was lost amongst the dross.

It had moments of GET OUT in there but without any of the suspense or good writing, acting or direction.

Extra points added purely for attractive female leads.

And the one scene where a patient twists and consorts which was kinda cool.....but want explained at all and just added as an after thought.

The villains were almost scooby doo level cringe.

Who was the target audience here?

It seemed to fail in every area. The CGI was very cheap and fake looking.

Once they got to the Care facility it was fail after plot hole after fail. Like they just didn't know where to go with it.

It had no fun element and no comedy.

The 'Dog' character was so overracted it became irritating.

A huge blot on Ortega's resume.

Avoid.

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.

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.
