    Hand me the keys ya cocksucka

    Needed more Benicio and less Kevin Spacey

    Civil War

    ★★½

    Just a confusing style and take on the whole thing. Overall messages such as how terrible and violent a modern civil war are perfectly valid to deliver. But there’s no story, no real character development, and just an oddly cut together movie. Riveting action sequences but there’s no context. Jesse Plemons scene clears

    And Texas and California alliance against DC? Where are the other states? Who came up with these political divisions? No strategy discussed. To me the movie is marketed as heavily featuring tactics and weaponry. But the movie just ignores that and occasionally you see a cool weapon in the background

    Pretty sure I’ve seen this movie already. It was animated, dealt with a multiverse, returns of beloved characters, all without garbage effects, oh wait…

    ★★★

    I actually did like the distracting style of editing. Exemplified the craziness of his life and the energy of his concerts
