2. Why to watch

   • 'Civil War' is a road trip movie set in a horrifying what-if scenario
   • When: Civil War is in theaters and IMAX on April 12.
   • What to know: The latest from writer-director Alex Garland imagines a United States at war with itself.
   • The plot follows three generations of journalists — played by Kirsten Dunst, Cailee Spaeny, Wagner Moura and Stephen McKinley Henderson — on a dangerous trip from New York to Washington, D.C.
   • Garland wrote the film during the 2020 election but tells Yahoo Entertainment its release during the 2024 election cycle is coincidental and due to “logistical requirements.”
   • While there are some allusions to recent social unrest early in the film, the world of Civil War is wholly fictional and does not concern itself with present-day party politics.
   • Promotion for the film hints at a complicated backstory with multiple distinct factions vying for power — but one of Civil War’s greatest strengths is that almost none of this is explained and it is open to viewer interpretation.
   • Garland hopes Civil War will spark earnest conversation about the potential consequences of extremism, “because conversation is the thing that is really struggling to exist in public discourse.”
   • — Sam Matthews, executive producer

    Apr 10, 2024 · As it turns out, "Civil War" is mainly something else: a thought experiment about journalistic ethics, set in a future United States, yet reminiscent of classic movies about Western journalists covering the collapse of foreign countries, such as " The Year of Living Dangerously ," " Salvador ," " Under Fire ," and " Welcome to Sarajevo ."
