So the "heroes" are the journalists and the dictator third term president gets executed and Charlottesville is a prominent town in the movie. Nice work.

Those seeking a statement about our times from Civil War beyond a blanket suggestion that Americans would be insane to engage in a second will likely be disappointed. But folks in search of a gripping mid-budget action movie posing an interesting question will be thrilled. It’s the first really interesting movie I’ve seen this year.

sorry. This guy magnum nor anyone normal has ever heard of, is a liar and or a retard
TDS the Movie...sorry, 'Civil War'
Anyone thinking this might have had some entertainment value or redeeming artistic features was being overly generous with their extension of the benefit of doubt.
\[spoilers below\]
Plot-wise, the movie itself is basically a relatively uninteresting (given the scope of what a US Civil War could have offered) road trip that doesn't actual portray a 'civil war' but rather "what will happen to America if Trump is reelected", i.e. 'the Resistance' and culminating with a leftist, wet dream assault on the White House and the Gaddafi-style execution of the Trump proxy.
There could have been a good movie made, about how tensions on both sides could get pushed to he point where violence occurs and escalates (like the Texas standoff between Feds and National Guard). The tensions between families being torn apart by differing views, people wanting to remain neutral still being impacted by violence, efforts of people inside and out to deescalate things while extremists on both sides carry out acts intended to further escalate the situation, etc. Lots of room for something with value, all squandered to say little more than; "Orange Man bad, Orange Man hurt USA! We hurt Orange Man!"
Its not simply a bad movie, or an overly heavy-handed propaganda piece, it is quite probably the most irresponsible encouragement of political violence I have ever seen. It doesn't just promote the continued delusion that Trump is a threat to people's actual lives but reinforces it and pushes it to the point where there is a real possibility this movie will be quoted in some left-wing loon's mass-shooting manifesto. In other words its not just a bad movie, its malicious fear-mongering, blatantly created as an election year tool of psychological manipulation during a period when the USA needs level-heads to bring some stability back to its politics rather than jackasses like the cast and crew of this monstrosity who (likely correctly) expect to be lauded by their Hollywood peers for running in with a can of kerosene and a zippo and shouting "things need to get worse before they can get better!".
Edit: Just to add (now that I've seen some critic's reviews of this) the 'official' consensus seems to be that the movie is presenting a balanced approach to the story that shows both sides being equally bad (with some leftist reviewers complaining this 'balance' is its weak point. The movie does show each side doing similar things but it goes out of its way to explicitly highlight the Trumpist side's crimes as a shocking war crime (carried out by racists) while utterly ignoring similar things done by the 'heroic' side. Ending as it does with the storming of the White House and the Gaddafi style execution, there is no way any rational person could take this as a balanced and unbiased story. The fact that so many critics still take that stance only goes to show how deranged they are. When a center left person discusses politics with someone on the far left, they get denounced by them as being "far right". This is the same way most reviewers approach this movie, a very left wing movie that wasn't extreme enough for some.

of course it is. I laugh at anyone who would believe otherwise
