The story made no sense, in that I didn't understand why people were fighting. I can understand the fog of war, but at least at the start there's got to be a reason for the war and having two camps. Next, Kirsten looked absolutely awful. That's probably not very 2024 to actually say it, but it doesn't make it less true. Next, the pretty girl looked like a kid, so from a love interest standpoint, it was creepy. The fat old guy was cartoonishly fat, ugly and almost entirely useless.
Next, there was no sexual violence. If history teaches us one thing, it's that men during war do horrible things, starting with rape. The fact there's none of that felt very sanitized. Next, the journalists keep jumping in the line of fire as if they wanted to catch bullets, which made no sense.
The whole thing ends up being dreary, dull and sanitized at the same time. Such a nothing burger. Civil wars, owing to books about them, are way more awful. Neighbours, brothers gutting each other open on the street and extreme violence. This was a farce.
