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.

To me, the apoliticality was completely immersion breaking. The degree to which I was cognizant that the story being presented was written in a context where it was actively avoiding offending portions of its audience by not addressing the politics of the most political setting you could pick was just too much.

But the whole point of the movie was that the sides didn't matter, and barely any body even knew what the sides were. They were constantly asking what outfit the people were with that they end up interviewing and it's still a mess. I thought it was perfect.
