A24’s Civil War is the eeriest movie I’ve seen all year. A24 has another banger on their hands…literally. The cast was full of stars and soon-to-be stars so I had high expectations going into the film. What I didn’t expect was for this movie to really “boom” like it did. What I mean by that is the sound design for this film was epic. When I think about this movie I don’t immediately think of what I saw but what I heard. If you ask me, that says a lot about Alex Garland’s approach when directing this movie. They cultivated a feeling that in some way you can’t put into words, you have to experience it. it’s almost like the old saying goes “You just had to be there.”
