A second American civil war scenario can make for a good movie, except in this case. I will give the company credit for casting Dave Bautista. That was a perfect choice. Your female lead Brittany Snow was miscast. A thirty year old playing a twenty year old grad student--wrong on two counts.
Plot holes you could drive a truck through. George A. Romero used the radio and TV to fill in the story and save money.

You need to establish a back story for your movie to make any sense. The spacing, action and plot got lost. How does a neo-confederacy come to attack NYC? Why was there no government involvement and or intervention ? How did a local militia armed with lacrosse rackets bring down a helicopter? Why do the invaders let the locals hit them with bats when they have guns....
To the writers / directors / producers of this movie: If you are going to use combat as a mainstay of your movie you might want to find a technical adviser. Preferably a person with combat experience or a sense of reality to clue you in on what works and what doesn't.
Bottom line, you need to tell a plausible story. Twenty years ago today Sergeant Pepper taught the band to play and this production company produced a movie that made sense.
