A movie that shows how sanctuary cities breed radicalism and terrorism and turns everyday people into sympathizers and criminals. Let’s have a movie about attacking ICE detention centers while that’s currently happening in America. This isn’t going to stoke any radical flames.. not at all..

I'm going to be in the minority here, but I really did not like it. Yeah, the cinematography was great, but was it worth three hours? And the comedy aspect didn't feel funny at all, rather it was a little too on the nose given the current climate.

What exactly is this film trying to sell us? Are we genuinely expected to believe that terrorism is suddenly acceptable in the United States as long as it’s framed around supporting illegal immigration? The premise is not only absurd, it’s insulting to the audience’s intelligence. The movie drags on for a bloated three hours, testing patience at every turn. There is no justification for the runtime; the story, political sermonising included,…

Bob: "Be careful." Willa: "I won't." Wow. I’m honestly not sure how to begin this review, except to say that this was fantastic. One Battle After Another is a brilliant and chaotic cinematic ecstasy from start to finish—an American Odyssey that’s never felt more timely in our tumultuous political times. Rather than relying on heavy-handed messaging, the film explores political themes through sharp satire and engaging storytelling. I’ve seen it…

This movie did not live up to the hype. The first 30 minutes were terrible and super horny for some reason. It picked up a bit toward the middle and end, but it was still terrible. This movie was all over the place with terribly fleshed out characters and a god - awful plot.

My gosh you can tell immediately that this is going to be a terrible movie. The score in the background is horrible. The characters are ridiculous. The scene with Sean Penn is really unbelievably bad - Guiness Book bad. Did you really name yourself Chase Infinity? Is there no limit to these thespians moronicabiltiness?

I really don't get the appeal of this movie. I'm not really into US politics. Is the show highly praised because it leans towards certain political ideologies? Even then, the satire seems to be very on the nose, and comes off as glorifying domestic terrorism. Also, did the film really need to be 3 hours long? What was even the point of the first horny hour of the film? PTA is a great director, but this was a big miss. What a weird disjointed…
