Alex Garland rarely fails to impress and Civil War is no exception. Politics aside, the film shows how important it is to document the truth - no matter how brutal things may get. And even thought he has but a single scene, Jesse Plemons continues to prove how great of an actor he is - but the main cast is also a solid unit. Given I'm writing this mere weeks before the 2024 election, just before Halloween in fact I'm also getting real-world chills - this is scarier than any horror film I've seen in a long time.

If the gripping "Civil War " feels too politically muted ar emotionally distant, that's most likely because it's neither about politics or emotions. But about the duties and diligence of journalists and the dangers that come with the job description.
