The movie doesn't make all the "alliances" really clear, but yeah, this is absurd; makes no logical sense at all. But, it also isn't really the focus of the movie.

I knew I couldn't be the only one.
They blew the damn op to start an awesome genre. If it would have been better there would be 5 more U.S. Civil War type copies coming out in the next few years.
Aside from short opening and final scenes, you get little sense of who is who, what, and why.
I heard Civil War doesn't have a single Avenger in it, or an infinity stone, so I'll probably give it a miss.

Does it have a "Strong Female" lead character?
If not - are one of the major supporting roles a character from an under represented social group?
Does climate change play a part in this dystopia?
Does a prominent anti-gun Hollywood celebrity shoot a firearm?
These are things I need to know before I give it a go.

^^Yes to half of those

Battle: Los Angeles. One of the most realistic depictions of a Marine infantry platoon both in culture and tactics. Prove me wrong.
The Ministry of Ungentlemenly Warfare...HELL YEAH! Go see it!
Between this movie and The Gentlemen, maybe I'm a Guy Ritchie fan...or maybe I just like shows with the word Gentlemen in the title?
I was patiently awaiting your verdict after you said you were going to see it.
I like Guy Ritchie stuff quite a bit as well. That said, in all honesty, his films are typically not a Maverick or Star Wars in terms of needing a massive screen and theater atmosphere to fully enjoy. Worth it to go out of my way to see while it's on the big screen?

Agree, not necessary to see it on the big screen, especially if you have to go out of your way to do so. But, it is worth seeing...total smokeshow Eiza Gonzalez, gratuitous Nazi killing, Henry Cavill deadpan delivery, all very loosely (with many liberties taken) wrapped around the story of Operation Postmaster, what's not to like?!
I see it as paying money to see it in the theater with the hope that "voting with my dollar" results in Hollywood making more entertaining films like this as opposed to most of the garbage I've seen from them in recent years. There really aren't any other films I'm really looking forward to seeing right now, based on previews.
Who is that?

Well, helllloooooo dere, Ms. Gonzalez!
I wouldn't leave my wife for her, but I'd probably spend a mint on Tiffany.com when that story broke.
Outside of fucking Philly, Pittsburgh and York/Harrisburg, we ain't fucking loyalists. Lol

No rhyme or reason to that map. Ohio aligning with the North Eastern coastal states politically is not even 2 fucks of reality.
A trailer for a trailer... fucking genius!! I've got a Geek chubby already.
And the trailer!

Special Bulletin, a 1983/84 flick about a terrorist nuke going off in Charleston, SC. I found it in full on YT. Scared the shit out of 15 year-old me then, scares the shit out of 55 year-old me now.

Maria and I watched Asphalt City last night.
Technical advisers did pretty good job for movie. Pt. interactions with EMS were realistic and funny.
Movie kind of slow though. Ending left you wondering though, I felt as if the rookie medic found his way in a busy, shit system, that's my take away, Maria was not fond of ending.
