This is a fantastic movie
All the discourse surrounding it is exhausting it’s a fictional movie about war photographers and the tragedies of war and it is not a warning or “this will actually happen if we don’t fix things” movie
Kirsten Dunst is obviously great but Cailee Spaeny is the standout for me she is just so fucking good (can’t wait for alien Romulus that is going to be so cool)
The soundtrack is insane and songs play over the most harrowing shit you’ve ever seen that you would never think to put over those scenes but it works so so well
See it in imax if you can the gunfire is deafening and shocking and it is a great looking movie too (the incorporation of the photography throughout is incredible)
Anyone from DC or the surrounding area will be weirded out or at least I was seeing insane combat in the streets of dc and in the White House/lincoln memorial/Washington monument but it made it even more impactful for me

Dude I fucking love this movie.. JDW and Robert Pattinson are so awesome together. As the lead action guy JDW is super entertaining.. nepotism be damned the guy can carry a movie. The villain is entertaining and evil but not cartoonishly. Michael Caine is in it. I swear people who complain that this is a confusing movie stopped watching like 3/4 of the way through. Surprisingly coherent despite how intimidating time manipulation may be to some people. The second half recontextualizes everything confusing from earlier and by the end almost everything is tied up in a way that makes sense. Rewards rewatching.. I finished it and spun it back to the beginning immediately and loved it even more …. My biggest complaint is that the mixing is *horrible* which is apparently a hallmark of Nolan films designed solely for IMAX theaters. This needs captions or you’ll be completely lost.
