Brace yourself for a riveting, disturbing film. Alex Garland, the brilliant British filmmaker behind Ex Machina and The Beach, is about to unleash Civil War on cinema audiences. A terrifying trailer shows the US collapsing into violent chaos as the “Western Forces” and “Florida Alliance” clash with the state. A paramilitary soldier forces a family to put their hands up at the roadside. “We’re Americans, OK?” the father pleads. “OK,” he drawls, with a chilling disregard. “What kind of Americans are you?”
The United States is not yet 250 years old. Is this how One Nation Under God will tear itself apart? Empires end, the film warns. Early viewers have described the film as an unflinching “masterpiece” that is “scary as hell”.
