      Americans are not much smarter then livestock these days. Reminds me of the movie idiocracy !

      • +5

        love that movie

      • +5

        A lot of hate in America. I guess there's more hate than reason, among people eligible and motivated to vote anyway.

      • -5

        This comment doesn't make you look smart either

      • +7

        We aren’t much better, the liberals were in power for 10 damn years

        • +11

          The Liberal party is nothing like the modern Republican Party. A more accurate comparison would be to One Nation.

        • -5

          In Aus we have a left party and a far left party.. the right party would be one nation :)

          • +2

            @vid_ghost: No, we have:
            * Far left: Greens
            * Centre Left: Labor
            * Centre Right: Liberals
            * Slightly more Right: Nationals
            * Far Right: One Nation

        I think that movie is quite profound. As is Office Space (also made by Mike Judge)

      • Cos its got electrolytes!

  • +8

    Topical haha

  • +2

    Good one

  • +11

    Watched civil war last week after seeing good reviews. Expected it to be handy but I thought it was pretty lame.

    • +2

      Agree. Had higher expectations. Was disappointed

    • +2

      I agree it was lame. weird like there was no
      ups and downs/intense and quiet. it just moved along almost just like a documentary following journalists? with some “hey youngster I’m a journalist this is my advice”.

      the ending just happened at the same pace and the movie ended. where was the movie !! 😡

      I watched it early, just based on the summary thought it would be interesting. wrong.

      if you were disappointed with civil war, and want to watch something similar.

      • Leave the world behind
      • How it ends

      both Netflix exclusives but were better than Civil war imo.

      • +10

        Enjoyed it but for opposite reasons, that it showed the banality of the conflict and indifference shown as to who they were fighting and why. Also disagree about the pace for the ending, that clearly ramped up.

        I could have done without the younger journalist focus but understand what they were going for.

        Will need to check out how it ends as haven’t seen that one yet.

        • +1

          Also disagree about the pace for the ending, that clearly ramped up.

          I remember the shootouts and some explosions towards the end but didn’t you get the feeling it was very unmovie like? how do you describe it like it just happens in real time and is over before you know it.
          and it’s the way it appeared which was kind of amateur phone footage like?
          I got that vibe from it like they filmed a movie like you would follow with handheld camera like in a documentary? maybe that’s what they were going for to make it feel more “real”.

          Will need to check out how it ends as haven’t seen that one yet.

          yeah without spoiling it they all three share the theme of america under attack by unknown enemy. I watched it not expecting it to be great but it was decent imo.

    • Yeah basically a road trip movie but I still liked it enough for what it was.

    • +1

      Though we may see the ending irl at some point over the next four or eight years.

      • -2

        Agreed. But there is always hope.. At least that's what I tell my self in the middle of the night, when all I can hear is the beating of my own heart!

        Trump will not serve out full term!

        • +1

          Well at least the rest of our lives won't be boring. I'm too old and uncoordinated to fight in any war, and especially too cowardly.

    • +4

      If you're expecting it to be about a civil war, especially in the American context, it's a total let-down. Given that's how it was advertised, it was a let-down for me.

      But as a movie about conflict photographers (whether that be Vietnam, Eastern Europe, etc) it's a great movie. It dives into the ethics of it pretty well; how photographers moralise to themselves that their ethical duty isn't to fight on the right side of the war or to provide any aid, but to document it (and get paid/fame).

      A similar movie is The Bang Bang Club, which I recommend despite the bad reviews. If you don't watch the movie, you should at least read about Kevin Carter.

    • Sounds like they were aiming for a mocumentary?

      As in, they were re-enacting the likely events that would happen in a modern US civil war, as opposed to making it cinematically dramatic.

  • +2

    Haha good to see you still active @Scrooge McDeal

    • +2

      Still around, not very active. But checking all the deals I am missing out 😄

      • Now to quantify the savings on money not spent from the missed deals, is that still in the ozbargain spirit or did I over-meta it?

        • Ozbargain spirit always around. But feel bitter when I can't get all the good deals.

  • +2

    This was beyond bad. In fact, I'd rank Madame Web above this movie.

  • +6

    Prey 15/11

    was the predator movie right? it was good.

  • One of the worst movies I've ever seen, I don't think you can even watch it ironically

    • +1

      yeah it hurts more if you paid to watch it. 😭

      should have waited until on Prime like this deal and watched it when they offered another Free month trial.

      the summary and trailer had me convinced it was going to be decent. they tricked me!

      • Them taking from the little free time I have a worse offense! If I had paid for it it would've been double upsetting.

    • +1

      Yeah terrible movie

      Saw the trailer and wanted to catch it at the cinema, ended up streaming from a mate's Plex after it had pretty much passed by and was glad that I didn't waste any money on it

      • +1

        Saw the trailer and wanted to catch it at the cinema

        I had the same reaction. kinda like “this story will show you what the worst case scenario in modern america looks like in a movie” and that wasn’t wrong except imo it was missing a lot of what makes a movie a movie. don’t know how to say it, but the aesthetic and story was so documentary like that it had no appeal and excitement. 💁‍♀️

  • Jesse Plemons scene was the only scene in this movie worth watching

  • +1

    The Atmos track was good, movie was mediocre.

    • Ooph yeah. Great sound mix.

  • -5

    What's worse, this movie or dumb ass Americans not voting. Change your constitution you idiots. Voting should be compulsory!

    • Voting should never be compulsory in a free country. The only countries with compulsory voting are almost all in Latin America.

  • Haven't seen yet.. thanks op

  • +1

    Looking forward to the sequel in 2025 with Donald Trump.Hahah

  • Thanks Sportsbet for limiting my bet lol

    • Sportsbet sucks. Soon as you show any signs of winning they limit or ban you.

    • I noticed that Sportsbet were putting the odds in favour of Trump nearly a month ago. How did they know?

  • +1

    Well shot, but otherwise hollow film.

    So the main characters are photojournalists, but the film deliberately leaves out one of the five W's of journalism - "Why". Why are they fighting? Who knows and who cares, apparently.

    Furthermore, any desire by the viewer to gain insight into this is shut down by proxy in the film when one of the fighters insults a journalist ("Oh I get it. You're retarded").

  • +3

    Movie was marketed terribly, implied it was going to be something it wasn’t. I enjoyed the movie a lot, just don’t expect it to be primarily a war film.

  • +1

    This is rather timely, huh…

  • +1

    yeah good timing, queue up paid Soros groups like antifa to start rioting with Trump in office.. out you go puppet Kamala!

  • -1

    Thanks OP, but there's a reason why these movies go "free" with a Prime subscription.

  • -3

    Film was meh. It had some good moments but it could have gone so much further.
    Also, Trump FTW!

    • +1

      Also, Trump FTW!

      Yeah.. he'll do that alright.

  • Hope the real life version has a similar ending.

  • -1

    Another US propaganda lol!
    Captain Ameriga
    white house has fallen
    london has fallen
    marvel movies
    Rocky bilbao
    hollywood's cheap propaganda movies etc etc

    They live already in their illusionary, dystopian paranoid world.

    They cannot make ameriga great again. Once it declined, it would decline.

    $79 a year prime , so it’s not free and having seen it I’d definitely not sign up to prime to watch.
    The movie itself has the wrong focus and expectations because of the title , civilian news people interactions around a conflict would have been more accurate.

  • Streaming video. lol

    Anyway sounds like a good movie, I like historical films.

  • The only show worth watching on Prime is Fallout. Prime is more useful for free delivery. I like to order $2 worth of stuff from Amazon and get free deliveries.
