I got about 8 minutes in and got a weirdo vibe that I felt the movie couldn't recover from, so I cut it off. I'm not saying that my assessment is accurate given the short viewing time, but I'm not surprised by your review.
Same, but then I decided to watch the rest of it and actually enjoyed it.
Me, too.
I was watching it and it just seemed like a fantasy of what a raid would look like.
Kill a bunch of Federal agents and leave a lot of immigrants in the desert with no supplies?
You're so close.
So the start is a dream sequence?
Meh.
It wasn't exciting or interesting. I've stuck with plenty of movies that were confusing at the start. It's not worth the reveal.
No, it's that the older radical violent generation is trying to live out a fantasy and they are making things worse not better.
Look at how not only does nothing improve during their efforts, but the mere presence of Bob disrupts the efforts of a well organized community who is actually helping immigrants.
And in the end the daughter does not pack a moltov and sawed off shotgun for a raid, she goes to a protest.
That vibe never change. PTA is the master at setting the tone. Whatever tone you get you get from the opening you will get throughout.
It is clear that the tone PTA wanted for this movie was ANNOYING.
