The movie is fantastic btw. It's a love story to war journalism and an actual fantastic depiction of what civil war here would be like.

One of the few movies I've watched repeatedly.

You’re one of the few people I’ve heard have as high opinion of that movie as I do. I love it, but basically everyone else I know hated it.

As a Canadian, I loved it. It feels like it would bring up a lot of difficult emotions and cognitive dissonance for a lot of American viewers. It's not that they hate the movie - they don't like how it makes them feel.

Fair point, but I think a lot of it is more because of how they marketed the movie, leading people to think it was about something different than it was.

I'm hard pressed to understand how anyone could have misinterpreted the marketing. The trailers are pretty unambiguous.
