We've all seen the "solar storm" and "cyber attack" narratives being pushed for years. We know they did a nuclear PSA in NY. Well, this film puts it all together.
The overarching plot is about a power/comms/Internet/gps outage as a cover for the elites to tear down America from within under the guise of war, where our society was infiltrated from within and their soldiers are prepositioned before the attack. The prepositioned attackers give the illusion of civil war, and propaganda is spread to blame all of America's enemies, but a "global evil shadow cabal is responsible". The elites are given a heads up so they can leave, while we deal with the chaos. The movie is extremely, extremely slow but follows the plot we've been piecing together about their plans for the USA over the last 3yrs. This film should be seen by anons for discussion. It's certainly a predictive programming film.
The movie is based on a novel - a horribly written, depressing, cliched mess. I only read it because it was free and wish I had the wasted time back. I won't waste more time on the film, but from what I've read it strays from the plot to expand on the nature of the attack.
No other book has left me feeling more ... awful. Please don't make the mistake I did.
That's probably why the Obama's stepped in to produce it. They wanted the plot to reflect their attack with accuracy
"No other book has left me feeling more ... awful."
I guess you've never read "The Road".
Or literally any other Cormac McCarthy novel lol.
I have ... but McCarthy's work is satisfying even if devastating. He is an accomplished storyteller.
This was just garbage.
The Road is a depressing ride, for sure. But I do enjoy McCarthy as a storyteller. I've steered clear of the movie adaptation for fear of ruining my impression of the book...although I've heard good things about it.
The Road movie is a very decent attempt at adapting a difficult novel. It really captures the mood and features one of the bleakest and truly apocalyptic atmosphere's in any media I've seen.
Never read the book, saw the film. Will never see it again. That movie was horrendous.
