Civil War was surprisingly good and not what I expected, or what most people would expect. For those uninterested for similar reasons I was, it doesn’t get into ideologies, pick sides, or get into details of the sides. It’s about journalists in a war zone who have to lean on their perceived neutrality to gain access and that doesn’t always keep them safe. We all know what differences of opinion might cause a civil war here, but most (not all) of the time you really don’t know who is on which side or based on what beliefs.
A conservative friend of mine got wind that CA joins forces with TX and that blew his mind, but in the movie that was just a passing comment. I had to repeatedly tell him that they don’t get into it beyond that comment. It’s like he really wanted the movie to be about what I was grateful it isn’t.
