Civil War (2024)

‘Civil War’ is a Frightening Look at a Possible American Future. Writer-director Alex Garland issues a stark, terrifying wake-up call to the U.S. – and to journalists everywhere – as ‘Civil War’ hits close to the bone.

‘Civil War,’ written and directed by Alex Garland (‘Ex Machina,’ ‘Annihilation’) is a deeply upsetting and frightening film – and we mean that in the best way possible. Set in an America that looks and feels very much like the one we’re in now, this brilliantly made film presents a harrowing vision of a nation tearing itself apart – as well as the story of a small group of journalists determined to witness history no matter what.
