People's behavior during the pandemic is why I'm absolutely sure there will never be another civil war.
What are these idiots going to do when they find their first empty grocery store?
They think they're going to go hunting in the woods. But they forget that even if they do manage to catch something they don't have any way of preparing it or cooking it without taking it back to civilization. They think gas just turns up in stoves and electricity in wires.
They would probably fall apart long before that though, all national guard would need to do would be to turn off the internet in that area, and they'd be stuck. They have no way of organizing themselves except on social media less than one in 100 of them will own and know how to operate a AM radio.
I kinda figured that’s why some of Meal Team 6 is kept around in reserve.
They were too busy snorting toilet paper and getting relief loans.
that's all the maga and far right do.. parrot each other ad infinitum
Correct, because they are incapable of actually thinking for themselves.
If they could, they wouldn't be conservatives.
Thanks Obama
Not even knowing that the Obamas had anything to do with it (like it matters at all?), I thought I was a refreshingly well-done movie in a genre I enjoy. Haters gonna hate.
I'd give it a 7/10. Didn't blow my mind but it was entertaining.
For a few years now, I've purposely sought out movies and TV shows on RT and Metacritic with very high critic ratings, and super low user ratings.
The only time this really happens is if reviews are brigaded. If the user reviews were honest, it's pretty rare that you'd see more than 20-30% difference between critic and user score (MAX). So when you see a critic score of 95%, and user score of 1.8/10, then I know I'm in for a good time. Same with games to a lesser degree.
I'm not even kidding, this is almost always a sure way to find a film or show I enjoy. In fact, I wish they'd introduce a "Controversial" category with things that have a big gap between critic and user scores (though when it goes the other way, that is high user score to super poor critic reviews, it's almost always PureFlix-style Christian propaganda garbage).
Can you give some examples? I'd love to discover some gems.
Word of warning - I usually find that movies on rotten tomatoes with low critic scores and high audience scores are hitting the midweek sweet spot for me. Low cerebral requirement, high distraction. If you get me.
I've found the same thing, critic scores are harder to use as predictors because there is too much variance between their individual special opinions about the importance of character development vs the average user enjoying a movie for what it is. Obviously crap is crap, but a 56% critic and 82% user score is usually more appealing than vice versa
Rotten tomatoes doesn't get the average of all critics scores, they only look whether or not the review was positive or negative. It doesn't look at their individual special opinions.
This timeline is full of morons and faildogs. Hate it.
Holy deranged
Don't even consider watching this movie!!!!! Horrible movie. If I could leave zero stars I would. I would say the Obama’s should stick to politics but unfortunately I can’t say that either. Regardless, this review sums it up very well: Zero stars needs to be an option. One reviewer posted an excellent review of this movie, so I had to copy and paste. "If you care about using your time wisely, then avoid this film like the plague. But if you like watching terribly written media, then by all means grab a snack and relax. Because this film is the embodiment of utter garbage. The first, and to me, the greatest red flag is seeing the Obamas as executive producers. The movie just changed far too many times, giving you more questions than answers. Family on the beach, a supposed home invasion, planes crashing, a brat obsessed with Friends, hackers start the end of the world, animals migrate for no apparent reason, son is poisoned by radiation yet no one else is and not to mention the blatant racial themes etc. Just a heaping mess of a pile. None of the characters are developed and slowly turn against each other. Situations like these would bring you together, not force you apart. You’d come to hate a few others, such as the daughter who treats Friends like a god and the other daughter, Ruth, who not only has a spoiled attitude but she assumes things on everyone and also believes you should never trust white people. I wish I were joking. And I quote: "I'm asking for you to remember that if the world falls apart, trust should not be doled out easily to anyone, especially white people." This had no relevance to the film at all! If this statement was flipped around, watch how things would go. I guess her name “Ruth” is short for ruthless. Because she did not act nice to anyone, not even her own father at times. If they removed her from the script, it would have made this film somewhat better. But not enough to save it. But the fact this made it through production baffles me. Then again, remind yourself of who the executive producers were. As for the “terrorist” act itself, it just isn’t clear which nation is the main driving force of it all. First some Arabic country to then either Korea or China. No idea because this is never answered. Nor were a lot of things. Where was the military? The actual forces of the nation. Apparently they do not exist, so everyone has to fend for themselves. Granted we do live in a technological world, but planes wouldn’t be crashing nor boats intentionally grounding themselves if everything was hacked. Analog exists. Pilots can still operate a plane without working apparatus etc. I’d go on but other reviews capture the level of frustration this “movie” brings the table. It’s bad. At least the daughter got to watch the last episode of Friends, after running off with neither brains nor brawn. Ate a large supply of food and somehow, found a VHS tape that oh so conveniently had Friends. Leaving her family to die. I wonder what she’ll think after the episode is over. Probably happiness, not a care for her family, as a show takes more priority than the end of the world." If I could give this movie a rating less than one star I would!!!
This is a perfect simulation of unhinged 90s/00s chain emails your aunt would forward you. All it’s missing is a title like “FW: FW: FW: FW: OPEN, very important!!!!!” and instructions to forward it to more people.
God it even sounds like trump
Trump would never use a big word like "apparatus" when something more at a 4th grade reading level will do
Wow that review is being copy/pasted everywhere and reposted to multiple review sites under many usernames. I thought the movie was pretty good and it’s based on a book that doesn’t answer the questions that the viewer is asking. That is part of the story l, not REALLY knowing what is going on. It’s like the whole theme, not to know for sure. It mentions the military in the final scenes so we have a guess on what they are up to.
It feels like somebody get a printout of the events of the story without any context or meaning. Like the last comment says the girl left her family to die. No. The entire family is meeting her at the bunker.
Makes me want to go watch it. Racist idiots gonna be racist idiots.
It's worth a watch. Don't read anything else about it before watching.
It's not great. Definitely more than 1 star but I watched it the other day and couldn't remember a thing about it until looking up the plot summary just now. It's one of those movies that could be amazing if it stuck the landing but I personally don't feel like it did. I voted for Obama twice so my opinion is not politically motivated.
Excellent movie. I only watched it because a friend referred to it as “that Obama movie that says don’t trust whitey” I figured that’s gotta be a must watch lol
It seems extremely trivial for Google to automatically delete all those identical reviews. Why they aren't doing this? On play store many times they delete my reviews because they think it's irrelevant to the product, here where they're all identical?
This is why we can't have nice things
Nice of them to make it really easy to filter from good faith reviews.
My local trump trump supporter LOVED it and recommended I watch it. Despite the Obamas involvement (his words more or less).
He has the whole survivalist kink thing though.
The movie is pretty bad tbh.
Solid movie. Watched it a week ago. Had no idea who was behind it.
Okay but it is definitely a garbage movie. The plot is terrible. Come on, guys.
It was alright, suspenseful but I didn't get the deer part
I have read that it somehow symbolizes nature trying to warn us about climate change or something but that doesn't make sense to me.
Eh, it wasn't great, but far from "garbage". There's more than 2 scores.
