Alex Garland is one of my favorite writers. Wrote Ex Machina - a masterpiece. His style is not for everyone, but I love it.

Civil War doesn't explain what caused the war, and that's a creative decision that I like. At first my curious side was annoyed for not knowing. What happened? Who's in each side? How many sides are they?

But my wife explained: it's so you can not blame the democrats or the republicans.

That opened my eyes. And not just that, it was so chaotic that it felt like it didn't matter who was shooting who. A scene on a street decorated with Christmas brilliantly represents this.

Great performance from all but especially from Kirstin - one of my favorites. Puts so much into each character. So much depth.

Blasting sound. Sound on the shooting scene at the end elevated several levels the strength of impact. And then came flying a helicopter or plane and it elevated everything one more level.

I'm going to watch this movie again. Highly recommended.
