    Everyone being very careful to make this movie seem non partisan.

    Alex Garland rules. And Nick was incredible in Devs.
    It's a shame Alex says he's retiring from directing. Thankfully, still writing screenplays and novels.

    Just saw it in a special preview at a NorCal IMAX theatre. Excellence film. You feel as if you are in the midst of each action set piece. I felt that it was naturally partisan, without actually embracing either side in our current US political arena. That it reflected the realities of combat photographers harrowing jobs.

    "References to Trump"?! Yeah okay. Offerman's character uses the same language as Biden, but okay ... it's also his 3rd term, which implies Obama ...

      Offerman is one of the most thoughtful human beings in Hollywood... If you know his written work and live shows, he's definitely not the person you think he is. That's why he's great at what he does on screen
