Watched it. Lots of long silences where characters stare off into the distance. Julia Robert’s is ugly and is cast as the white biatch. (Good casting IMHO).

Some disturbing ideas that show how fragile and disconnected from reality some in our society are today.
the viewer never really finds how what the truth about the conflict weather it’s the US imploding or an actual attack from outside.

The ending is a cop out, the youngest daughter finds an empty house, pigs out on candy and watches friends episodes while the world falls apart.

Its a story that’s been told before and much better. The term Predictive Programming comes to mind, get people used to seeing scenarios of destruction and chaos so they get desensitized to it.

two out of five stars, not enough booms for my taste and a blah ending.

The daughter didn’t find the empty house where the bunker was, that was one of the supernatural impulses that the movie sometimes interjected with no follow-up.

As far as what was happening, the black guy tells the audience while he is sitting in the car at Bacon’s house, it is a conspiracy to cause a civil war.
