such a hellish   year for us as you know oh you have no idea what  you're about to get into you are just constantly   anxious about your job because of all the budget  cuts so I went online this morning and I rented   us beautiful house out by the beach budget cuts  at business Corp all of this is going to feel so   minimal I thought I'd get a jump on it look at  the crack crack in the Blue Earth oh yes I fig   if I made the reservation and packed our bags  it would eliminate most of the reasons to say   no where are you escaping from woman I didn't want  to wake the kids so I haven't packed for them yet   but honestly I think they're going to be super  psyched about this it's an interesting symmetry   to the way they're shooting all this I'm down for  little vacay especially with the kids it's like   the Sun and the Moon oh look at it symmetry again  deep when I couldn't fall back asleep this morning   I came over here to watch the sunrise right right  and I saw all these people starting their day with   such tenacity then you had an existential crisis  make something of themselves I felt so lucky to   be a part of that oh we get so caught up in the  immediate moment but now this made me matters   wo trippy shot then I remembered what the world  is actually like and I came to a more accurate   realization like a 70 shot I hate people I love  her I love her one our faces faces so true damn   dude what the Obama produced this so this is  going to be environmental I have an idea for   a motion picture it's like an eye is watching us  and good catch good catch good

the board of the philarmonic he likes to  encourage everyone he knows to take an interest   in classical music oh my God he's this character  out of green book driving back to the city home   then something happen a blackout the lights here  seem to be working pretty good we have a generator   so there was a blackout and you decided to drive  all the way out here these roads they're familiar   I barely even thought about it so when we saw the  lights go I looked at Ruth and said that he would   feel better if we stayed here the implication that  she's suspicious cuz he is a black man yeah this   is way too big and nice a house for him to afford  on his own under the circumstances we we thought   you might understand of course masasa is sukasa  as our casa is sucasa we thought maybe if you let   us stay because again it is like our house what  she's trying to say is we wanted to be somewhere   safe uhhuh we could absolutely refund you your  money you want us to leave it's the middle of   the night my my children are sleeping upstairs  you come in here and talk about refunding our   money I I I think I need to call the company  whoa dude chill we're not saying you should   leave we're saying we should all sleep together  yeah 50% of what you paid you know there's an   in-law suite we stay downstairs downstairs 50%  I think we need 50% I am so Ethan Haw in this   position I be like yeah D 50% man yeah I don't  feel comfortable staying in a house with oh finish   that sentence should have listened to my wife and  had these labeled already yeah you better find the   right one quick though no that's good it makes  you suspicious like did he take the keys yeah oh yeah check off's gun and check off  M they would cue the audience in that   there's a gun there it's really they  break perspective $1,000 an now for   the night that should cover almost half  of what you're paying for the weekend $1,000 well you you you think they're lying  me it's a young woman and her father they look   innocent enough they're strangers they introduce  themselves they introduce themselves what if what   if what if the blackout and and and whatever  that's just all part of the story in the boat   going on the beach what if this was all them  what if they did all this to convince us to let   him stay here he had the keys remember so what if  he had the keys maybe he's the handyman she's the   housekeeper the housekeeper always knows where  the stash of money is you're saying some of the   most racist [ __ ] without saying without flat  out saying she seen the help okay she's doing   her part something is happening and I don't trust  them I think they are scared nice people who need   a place to spend whoa is that a security camera  what the hell is this shot yeah yeah you know I   might have a drink haven't touched this one yet  it's all yours oh thank you all right what's in it exactly that is a heck of a cocktail you should  try this babe I think you dig it I'm about to   knock out I'm drunk already I think I need some  fresh air he got some interesting tattoos I wonder   if they are hers or if they are for the movie  I like this this like acting toward to force   man everyone's so good it's such a good Rhythm  how long have you been here bought it almost 20   years ago now fixed it up about 5 years back had  a great contractor a lot of little details were   his idea whereabouts is your place in the city  we on Park between 81st and 82nd wow you talk   like a cop where's your wife curious if you're  worried about her in the city my wife she's on   a work trip

you were on your way home uh  this is a National Emergency all radio stations   and televisions will cease their programs during  this is The Purge yeah you got 12 hours we're   only talking about a blackout here a blackout is  not nothing it could be something be a symptom   of something bigger like terrorism or a bomb  like the one that you said your son would sleep   through she looks very familiar I think D you  should stay here tonight for $500 more dollars yes oh no symbolism symbolism what  do we get to do tomorrow there laundry wowe that's done nice a shitty basement  I mean yeah what a dump we need to get them out   of here we're not going to do that by scaring  them whoa they need to think everything's going   to be okay interesting they would cut this  perspective everything is going to be okay   isn't it oh when it comes time to survival  you just got to be with your own I don't mean   that racially be with your loved ones or chosen  family she was with us don't take it so personal   I don't think I can listen to much more that  snark even if this does turn out to be their   house well there is not one photo on the wall  not one not a wedding picture of the supposed   art dealer wife on the business trip or that  spoiled brat as a baby wolof why didn't you   say anything about what we saw at the beach today  that boat was an oil tanker it's not a boat it's a yacht oh Cyber attack oh yeah no they  said the naval radar the Curve the Navy thingy maybe it's not an apocalyptic movie  yeah still be an apocalyptic thing maybe   it's an AI apocalypse

nearly caused a meltdown what  the hell is she talking about the thing if it's   okay with you I would like to keep what's going  on between the adults the kids like the pool I'm   just going to encourage them to do that until  we know more I don't want to scare anyone but   I disagree with you disagree with me about what I  don't think this is nothing what is it that you do   I'm in advertising on the client side a manage  relationship this little girl takes command of   the scene man where's clay he went to the store to  get a newspaper or try to find someone to talk to   to see if they know what's going on Kevin Bacon  oh yeah Kevin Bacon thought I'd go over to our   neighbor's house the hugley you often see no one  here around this time but I'll drive over anyway   and check before you go you might want to hear  about the alerts alerts oh news alerts on my phone   this morning two of them were about the blackout  but then there was one that said something about   maybe hackers were behind it is he behind it in  some way I don't know trying to figure out what   it means when this camera starts looking down at  everybody I'm sure this will turn out to be a big   nothing like that love you bug this feels very  Twilight zoning what's a love you bug there's a   computer worm spread throughout the internet back  in 2000 people would get an email with the subject   line that read I love you if you clicked on the  attachment it would send it to all your contacts   oh cool turns out it was just two teenagers  in the Philippines poo Pride baby hey I

scare them into getting out I'm worried about Mom  you think her flight is going to be okay nah sure   matter of fact I bet she's been redirected to  some airport in Ohio what a transition through

really sneaky pan through the  window there and then they added the glass back man this over Reliance on  technology dude you're going to   crash into the beach with a GPS like that  you're going to crash into like 47 deer yeah the hu sleep send them all as a text h okay well I believe this really  is his house though at least I love how   there's like the composed music is in such  star contradiction with its soundtracks yeah you know hi what are you looking at get  they're just lurking behind the shrubs oh   interesting a dark horse not a p I need to  look up what a deer and a horse

Meg oh my God yo people need to  stop going to the beach in this yeah wao it's like North by Northwest wow  wow holy go what a shot what a shot oh   your daughter watches that show every  human watches are we are we about to criticize so much I could take careful what  you say next don't get me wrong I watched it   too it's almost nostalgic for a time that never  existed you know that's kind of a fair point yeah   I'll give you that it's a fantasy you want to  bet the last line of this movie is going to be   where tell you what I mean by that later little  no bad you got a parasite now boy it's the ruins   feel like we're watching The Book of Revelations  you going to tell us why you're soaking what tell   them what you saw I fell into the pool you fell  into the pool why why hide the information you   mind going to my study and getting me something  to wear afraid this is only change of clothes I   had downstairs oh he's going to protect her from  the information I knew something was coming what   do you mean the Dow was up in my line of work you  have to understand the patterns that govern the   world you have to learn how to read the curve  that's part two the title it's been as long as   I have doing it it can help you see the future  it holds steady promises Harmony also lates a   lot of money why are you telling me this did your  neighbor say something to you no he wasn't home he   has a satellite phone I thought could help us it  didn't work even though it had enough juice now   the whole point of a satellite phone is that you  always to have a signal if you have a clear view   of the sky which I did oh boy only reason why it  wouldn't work is if our satellites got knocked   out of commission spooky don't you think you're  maybe getting a little carried away I mean maybe   you just didn't use the phone right I saw a plain  nose dive out of the sky into the ocean thank you   yeah D pan over to the guy at the piano what the  apocalypse just happening around them wowe whoa dude from W yeah buddy I bet we ain't going to find out  jack [ __ ] about what causes yeah yeah yeah   yeah it's just going to end with them all lined  up looking at something we don't see what it is whoa the the subtle use of image stabilizers  in this is wild too yeah the way they mess   with the frame rates and way like like  this kind of slow motion is great yeah   great shaky can that's awesome one it's  like the shake to her footsteps yes oh yeah what noise noise noise noise noise I mean  whoever's causing this is stripping us away from   our resources that we primarily rely on which is  all this electronically should have covered my   ears sooner now my head feels weird oh was it a  um like a a plane breaking the sound barrier or   whatever that planes don't usually break the  sound barrier the Concord doesn't fly anymore   maybe it was a plane that we don't know about  maybe it was UFOs why don't you go cuddle up in   Mommy's bed and read that book deck out you read  when I have friends looming over me so when her   daughter watches that season 2 episode of Friends  when Julia Roberts yeah was seducing CH it's also   in the oceans 12 Universe Julia Roberts just  exists independently of all these other women   who look like jul Roberts since you're the one  with the crystal ball was that a bomb a missile   I don't know anything for certain yet you seem  pretty certain a minute ago with your haunting cqu yep fair point we wait for clay to come back  and we see what he's learned or we should fill   the bathtubs full of water or is there enough  batteries and Tyle and food and straw that makes   it safe to drink dirty water I think we shouldn't  do anything until Klay comes back what if he's   not coming back whoa I thought she was being  sarcastic yeah tell me what you're thinking   there's the blackout and then you see the planes  crashing and I think Mersa Le's trying to tell   us that we're not really going to get our answer  what happens next in that sequence everything I   know I have told you I haven't believed you since  you walked through that front door I wonder what   it is about us that makes you so mistrustful  you know what you're talking about don't you   well ain't that the pot calling the kettle black  roof oh what is she implying I just couldn't tell   you when if you find out then let me know he knew  at the market in town yesterday there was a guy   in the parking lot he bought cases of water and  canned goods oh yeah I would love that's Kevin   Bacon's only screen time yeah that's it just the  harbinger and he had 10 slabs apple wood smoked   bacon he a beard guy wearing an old Cowboy's Hat  oh yes he was wearing a Cowboy's Hat that's Danny   he's the contractor I was telling you about oh is  he the one worked on this house yeah he made all   the cool Deets what happened did you get to town  uh I didn't get far I you know and then I just   started to drive and then I heard that noise  and and I I came right back does it wipe the   memory still running water I did see something  I it was this huge drone you know up flying in   the middle of nowhere dropping off thousand sets  of these I I no idea what it says oh boy oh oh no God I really got to learn another language  death to America ug no kids come in handy I   don't know what the rest of this means but but  this part it definitely means death to America   I remember from a game I was playing oh good was  it a Call of Duty I make that first right this   a straight shot to the expressway with what we  know the city would be the worst place for you   to go we're not going to the city we're going  to my sister's in Jersey Jersey is even better   you have to drive through the city but to be  clear I make a right yeah it's exactly like   how you got here but listen to me please I love  how at first I wanted to get rid of them yeah   and now he's like no you should stay yeah I  I really appreciate you taking care of us I   do we have to do what's right for our family  oh my God this is in everyone's best interest   your funeral because you're black yes you really  should have told me what you saw but I'm certain   your mother's plane wouldn't be flying over  over here it wasn't the same airline that's   why he wasn't saying so okay yeah dude is she  gone I just told you it wasn't even the same   airline yeah but does it feel like she's gone  do you have special ESP Powers I bet we never   get that answer I would bet that you're correct  Sirens I thought you were napping honey no I can't   why not cuz of the sirens I don't think it's a  terrorist attack no it's something greater than that oh those look like a lot of  the same car a lot of Teslas up here this segment of the  film was brought to you part by the electric cars yeah you can't just throw  electric cars at the problem and expect them to   fix it they just all auto drove here self-driving  baby we're all brand new who hey someone's coming   in a white Tesla no one's actually drove the cars  that is selfing oh my God they did all just drive here but it has automatic you know  obstruction detection one would hope   but clearly not get right now oh  taking the wheel Julia Take the   Wheel should we flag them down maybe they  know something there's no one in that car W Jes shot holy [ __ ] this is like Elon  must wet dream yeah let's get some cyber   trucks in there wa who Jesus at  least we know the Teslas work yes wow you ain't getting in know City it's  like a painting right there that was gorgeous shot self that a short chapter yeah it is  biblical the flood cometh one of the fears   of the self-driving car you said all those  cars came off the lot they did that to every   dealership the main roads are most likely clogged  up that is clever we stay here till we know more   if they are terrorists these are very smart  terrorists we're probably in the middle of   a war zone people we know are likely dead like  your mom m in the plane she was probably in the   plane Ruth we can't sit here and do nothing  we need to go somewhere he try a in it's too   dangerous he's haunted by the fact that he let  that woman die but is that all he's haunted [Music] by dude she's going to die not having  seen the end of friends filling up the tub t not   really that's like marijuana they got different  kinds now like fruit flavors like marijuana don't mind if I do I always thought of myself  as a sophisticated man someone who had seen the   world for what it was I have never seen anything  like this I mean okay look I get it Humanity the   way have we have taken over the Earth has has  destroyed so much of how things naturally work   driven animals out of their take your line of  work for example trying to keep up with this   while giving commentary same that is most basic  my work is and always has been about people feel   real sorry for you then why is that cuz you ha  people are terrible look at the way I treated you and that makes it okay I am sorry for  what I said did thought doesn't matter   some of my smartest clients lost a lot of  money because they base their choices on   preconceived beliefs instead of truth that's  why I always say deals if you're a black man the quiet is so noisy yeah that's  a line found it hard to sleep not like   at home where you hear everything  Sirens traffic people living by   the freeway can be comforting I pull up  the sounds of honking on YouTube to fall [Laughter] asleep I am starting to like  you I'm seeing past your skin color and   now if you'll excuse me I'm going top off my  light what yesterday before the symphony my   friend calls me up and wants me to move  around some of his money oh no and as   we're getting off the phone I asked if he to  grab a drink he tells me he's going away for   a while you hanging with you evil cabal  this weekend thought that was only during   the winter solstice pagans that he doesn't  laugh and he always laughs even with bad jokes take care yourself almost as if you  felt sorry for me you go ahead and die are   you thinking that you're friend is somehow  behind what's happening here or he knew he   just knew especially when the truth is much  scarier what is the truth no one is in control   yeah he's just getting out of Dodge no one is  pulling the strings sure there are those like   my friend it's all just collaps in on itself  who might have the right kind of access to the   right kind of information but when events like  this happen in the world the best even the most   powerful people can hope for is a heads up oh  yeah it's Jenga he that is always the push pull   I'm feeling is either either somebody's deeply in  control or nobody is in control it's the only way   these stupid things can all happen in our world  I'm never going to find out what happens to Ross   and Rachel am I you're still on this [ __ ]  I'll tell you exactly what happens why do you   care so much about that show anyway they make  me happy I want need that right now don't you   if there's any hope left in this world we'll at  least find out how things turn out for them I'm   sure someone in your house has seen it the  way things are going you're not going to see   that show ever again so if I were you I'd find  something else to care about Big Brother of the   year I got lost today what do you mean you got  lost I thought I knew where I was going but then   there were all these streets that didn't have any  signs anywhere you know I turned around and then   I got just completely lost I I have no idea  how I found my way back here to be honest but   I did see someone uhoh it's going to confess to  her a woman on the road she waved me down she's   speaking Spanish she needed help and I left her  she have Vaped yeah truth comes out in the end I   really do I mean even if it is like an invasion  an invasion well or an occupation okay dude you   know what your word choices are like freaking  me the out oh who who who it's the lady from the road all the birds migration flamingos you want to  listen to Jazz sure why not uh cuz I thought we   were going to have some fun Jazz can be fun now  this looks like something a lady can properly   dance to oh come on that's not what I brought  you in here for I Love This Thread I wonder   if she could tell I'm hard right now ooo oh my my  God it's like that movie she just did with George Clooney Julie Robert dances like me they  wanted to get memed did like that's the   key to success how do we get memd if we can  make yeah get a gift out there we're drunk we   are oh we're married I'm married you have  a wife shead I really miss her you'll see   her again no oh no she it was her plane  must have been but if something happened   to her too I don't think I could live it  myself nothing is going to happen to Ruth   I promise she's riding a flamingo there is no  going back to normal don't say that we have to what no not the screen he's got fever is he okay he's a little  warm but I think he'll be fine I keep thinking   about one westwing episode there's this story  someone tells the president you watched The   West Wing the story was about a man who lived by  the river in a van down by the river he hears on   the radio that the river is going to flood  the town and everyone should leave but the   man doesn't go anywhere because knows that God  loves him and will say him but then the flood   actually happens helicopter comes flying by the  pilot lowers a ladder but the man tells him he   isn't going anywhere after that the man drowns  in the flood and so he goes up to heaven and   he's really angry at God this all happened in  the westwing I pray to you every day I thought   you loved me why didn't you save me and God says  I sent you a radio report yeah pay attention to   the signs and a helicopter what more do you want  what's this about Rose this situation I think I'm   done waiting I'm I'm going to find a DVD of  friends physical media is the only way it's   just us now isn't it the [ __ ] goes down do you  trust these people that are in our house a that   boy was sneaking pictures of Me by the pool  that little girl keeps staring into the woods   like Donnie Darko and I'm pretty sure the husband  wants to me hell yeah he's not actually going to   do anything he's not that guy but did he want  to Absol lutely my point remains I don't trust   them Discerning jeez I'm not going to let anything  happen to you if that's what you're asking she's   so observant I'm asking for you to remember that  if the World falls apart trust should not be DED   out easily to anyone especially white people fair  just what exactly was the point of letting them   back into the house was the right thing to do  and that right there what going to in the end   yeah oh stri that's cool you're watching like the  process of what leads to the survival instincts in   an apocalypse you know totally normally you kind  of just skip to and this is like what Humanity   has come you're watching In This Very isolated  situation the evolution of it where's Rosie I   don't know she got up before us I'm going to go  look around she get up she's going to check all   the neighboring houses for DVDs oh you're not  so warm now really cold does your throat hurt   oh no good

God ew ew ew ew e ew God with the  roots my teeth yeah something's wrong with Archie   what is it oh the exactly what I said uh my my  my teeth just they feel weird and I and I oh   know not okay not okay not okay one wait were  we in a part four already I guess we were what   was part four uh the the water oh yeah I right  part three was short yeah yeah that's right a   bug bit me yesterday in the woods that must be it  then probably just a tick lime disease I've seen   stranger symptoms Stranger Than This and we need  to go to the hospital there ain't no hospital the   expressway is the only way out of town besides if  the road are jam don't want to be there to help us   anyway well we have to do something Archie needs  to see a doctor put your hands on her I'm telling   you I have looked everywhere and she's not here  she's not down there she behind the painting she   wasn't outside but I think she may have taken  one of the bikes from the garage a blockbuster   she she saw some deer and she wanted to go look  for them so maybe there I don't know I'm going   wor St to cover your ankles oh my God I'm coming  with you no it's not safe you cannot leave me here   by myself he's sick Bo don't you see that Dad  you will never come back a set a timer 1 hour   I'll be back actually doing it too that's good  I'll be back for you before this goes off oh boy that means we have exactly one hour left  in this movie oh Jesus a long movie I was so   into it until you told me I was damn got to  watch more of this now [ __ ] hour this is   it's got yeah swirl to it almost it's like  a spiral it's like Uzumaki but what does it   mean I want to know what the is the plan I want  to know that we can find my kid and then get in   youring expensive car and drive to an actual  hospital and then we can just all go back to   our house yeah well what if that's not possible  yeah you don't care that I'm here and my mom is   probably at the bottom of some ocean I don't have  anyone else I have nothing to go home to but them   do you do you understand that a I care I do I  don't know what I'm supposed to do about that   but I do care Huggers some what do you get out  of being so angry all the time protection from   her actual feelings no people just suck and she  gets to stay away from them my whole job is to   understand people well enough so that I know  how to lie to them so I can sell them things   they don't really want cool when you really see  the way they treat each other well you see what   they do and they do it without even thinking about  it you have to kind of just see the wors in people   I think deep down we know we're not fooling anyone  deep down no it's pretty obvious and agreed upon   mass delusion to help us ignore and keep ignoring  how awful we really are absolutely I completely   agree with the sentiment here here that's why I  buy beyond meat fixing the problem oh whoa the deer she Now commands the deer yes she's going to  come out riding them sorry to bother you at home   like this I'm going to need you and your comrade  to step off the porch and stand by your vehicle   your comrade off the porch and buy your vehicle  man Kevin Bacon and Julia Roberts used to be such   nice bading actors now they're playing [ __ ]  racists what can I do for you just checking on   you if you heard anything about what's going on  yeah I'm clay my family ran at gh's George just   at home we're from the city oh no well we came out  here because my son needs help uh he's vomiting   he's he's lost his teeth and they just fell out  can't explain it thank you well it's got to have   something to do with that noise you know something  about the noise it's not all that the similar to   what happened in Cuba while back microwave weapons  they call it produces a kind of radiation that can   be beamed out through sound what something is a  foot now what that is exactly I don't know maybe   this is as much as we're ever going to know maybe  we just need need to sit tight pray whatever works   for you I'm going to watch the Cowboys like clay  said his son isn't well we're going to need more   than just prayers knowing how primed you are for  these kind of situations we're thinking you might   have some medicine that'll be able to help you  what I got isn't your business survivalism you   telling this man not to take care of his son  nothing makes a whole lot of sense right now   when the world doesn't make any sense I can still  do what's rational which is protect my own yeah   that's what I was saying earlier you got to stick  to your own of course and I meant not as a racist   thing yeah yeah my son's really sick he needs your  help he's 16 years old dude Ethan Hawk is such a   good actor oh dude he's he's probably my favorite  actor now like he can like do any role yeah I love   E's the hawk you're in a difficult position I get  it I would do anything I had to for my family so   that's what I'm doing yeah but you were prepared  man come on Danny you can't desert us like this   haven't you been picking up watch me we've all  been deserted everyone's being deserted make her   Your [Music] Leader what I would like all of you  off of my property oh boy we're not going anywhere   till you give us what we need oh my God he's  going to shoot you dude this guy's been waiting   for an excuse to shoot [Music] somebody oh [ __ ]  that's right Put the gun down all right we'll find   another way to the hospital there is no other way  besides he's not going to shoot us uh sounds like   he's going to shoot us what is going on they just  want to scare him away but also like I would not   resort to this hold on I get out of the way I'm  trying to reason with him he's white I can talk   to him in white people terms all the roads are  blocked we're in the middle of God knows where   there's no one else around I have no idea idea  what I am supposed to do it's kind of the point   I am a useless man and that is the point of the  movie what would you do if it was your family   that's what I'm doing it's the only thing I can  do just kill them Kevin Bacon please help my son they did it it was them for sure  yep definitely th% it just takes enough screaming I'm your mom now yeah seriously  bonding experience he took the money oh my   God this guy Jesus Christ he took the money God  oldfashioned barter system was to be expected at   some point wow dog hey I got another tidbit  for you free of charge if you want it it's a   Koreans behind all this who makes you say that  just trust me the Chinese one of them oh God   right underneath the right underneath the whole  Glory baby the Chinese one of them you know what   those Asian countries they're all the same big  drone dropping these everywhere it means death   to America so we're thinking Iranians I remember  hearing something on NPR once about their cyber   capabilities pledge Drive baby NPR before the  phones went out I heard from a friend of mine in   San Diego about a similar event drones dropping  pamphlets except they were in Korea or Mand any   like I said he couldn't tell which seeing as he  did four tours in Iraq he sure as sure would have   known if it looked like that we made a lot  of enemies around the world maybe all this   means is a few of them teamed up ah cool we've  created Unity yeah the we were here to do all   everyone United against us we're the coach of the  world Man United States have United all the other countries that house that's got to be where she  went oh she sees Rosy's body I don't know but   she was looking at that house earlier no matter  how far this thing goes I need to know that we're   good cuz if what just happened here is happening  everywhere we need to get to that bunker Danny   told us about and we need to get there now what  are you talking about he's saying that you need   to team up and survive together had a sneaking  suspicion but I wanted more information first   all SIDS were there sure but I whole movie holding  out on his man it would have made more sense if we   were on the brink of an allout invasion but this  I didn't think we'd actually let something like   this happen I thought we were smarter than  that n no there's not that much order in the   world cuz my primary client works in the defense  sector I spent a lot of time studying the cost   benefit analysis of military campaigns go there  was one program in particular that terrified my   client the most three-stage maneuver that could  tople a country's government from within dialogue   they give him first stage was isolation disable  their communication and transportation ation make   the target as deaf dumb and paralyzed as possible  that's us yep setting them up for the second stage   synchronized chaos terrorize them with covert  attacks and misinformation yep without a clear   enemy or motive people would start turning on each  other that just happened hey we're all a part of   it done successfully third stage would happen on  its own Civil War oh War that's what I just no you   guessed that I just heard in my head you thought C  and I said soil War s this program was considered   the most coste effective way to destabilize  the country because if the target nation was   dysfunctional enough it would in essence do the  work for you America is doing it on itself yeah   cuz we're just that dysfunctional can't agree  about [ __ ] whoever started this wants us to   finish it so you're like purging Society yep  essentially you know forced upon you from the   outside 1 hour pedal to the floor my dude oh is  the house over there the same one with the Panic Room the one you said he'd sleep  [Music] through cool thought this   movie would hold out on us show this  in some like [ __ ] news report yeah   everything was returned swiftly to  normal after some random technical   glitch I bet these guys own all 10 seasons  of Friends in a special Blu-ray collector's pack yeah what do the Thorns have let's  go she broken glass means nothing to   this [Music] camera oh my God you're just in  here having the best time straight chilling   this is like buddy the elf's greatest dream  this is what paid for this entire mov here   all the products on this table I have the set  engraving for poptarts and Reese's and Ocean Spray wow good touch oh I would love to build  one of these oh my God the Thorns got it hooked   up oh my God they got jugs of ant Jima they  don't make ant Jima no more one problem with   these basement you know apocalyptic ones they're  always gross whoa hey elevator radiation levels   where are these reports coming from just  going to get friends oh my God they have   friends puffy come on find the DVD byebye  birdie Center Stage they like tab Gilmore   Girls friends frays it's alphabetized got at the  final episode she found a DVD physical media this   the real message of the movie is buy all your  favorite films on DVD or shows weird message Netflix this is just one long ad for them bringing   DVDs back to Netflix and then they  scratched the DVD for anyone who   hasn't finished friends is a real bummer  about to spoil the whole show for a you know please end right here please end right here  please tell me they did it tell me they did it yes yes I love it and that was the name of the  Final Chapter right chapter five was called   the the final one or the last one I think  so wow damn killing it well Rachel got off   the plane oh just spoil it for everyone I got  off the plane I mean I figured the whole movie   Out can't believe I did it you did it dude you  should write movies like this for Netflix where   you'll get paid and residuals and all that other  good stuff now but you know when you are dealing   with an apocalypse like this yeah sometimes it's  scared to go outside yeah having to forage for   food and things yeah sometimes you just want  that food delivered fresh to your doorstep   yeah in a way you could stockpile and hold on to  for any occasion no matter how simple nor world rending we have to interrupt this broadcast  with a special message from

movie yeah yeah   I want to make sure we talk about every okay so  let's go over the ending okay and then uh what   what else do we have to interpret or do should we  try to find meaning of uh okay so just what was   really going on yeah what is this apocalypse what  other things happen that we should dissect the   meaning of animals Animal symbolism yes definitely  oh God it's going to be hard what else we got uh   we got color symbolism jeez racial subtext oh  yeah man this is going to be a tough one damn   you know class commentary and uh go performances  performances tone Direction and cinematography   yeah yeah okay all right let's go with the ending  one first ending ending explained yes watch us do   this without any research just just absorbing  what the movie's giving us uhhuh we can do this   ending explain all right so Rosie goes down to the  rich man's bunker uh and then finds the friend's   DVD watches the last one I think there's multiple  meanings here guys get ready for this Greg's about   to sound so smart smart Greg incoming Rachel got  off the plane I think the wife got off the plane   okay I think wife survived that's it's a simp yes  it's an Easter egg of sorts it's it's just such   a weird ending to end on her getting the DVD cuz  there's so much emphasis on it okay let's try to   be sincere for one second John there is this like  there is this emphasis on uh when they find Joy   through certain forms of escapism right and she  I mean the daughter has this whole thing about   like world sucks but I like these friends people  and it's the way a lot of us describe the show   Friends my favorite show of all time and I would  describe very similar experience that this this   girl uh describes friends being as then even when  um MERS Ali and Julia Roberts they're dancing it's   via through the form of art through the music  you know so I think that even in despite these   chaotic toerist times that they are living in uh  to put it lightly that their source of Happiness   can still be found in some form of art yeah I  would say I think that's maybe what the the the   choice to end on that specific note ultimately  is about like she finds a genuine smile in that   yeah in that heartbeat of a moment you know and uh  like she pigging out enjoying the junk food so and   but beyond that I think with ending on friends  which is an art firm trying to see this like a   third time where they find Art like I like how is  the music in that is there another moment well I   mean there are other things like she says that  like oh they love the pool I just want them to   focus on that then it's like forms of recreation  and like simple little things it's a record it's   dancing it's swimming it's being outside it's  finding your favorite show or whatever it might   be and yeah it's those little thing it's like  in a situation that is like asking you to find   impossible solutions to what seems like the  most insurmountable set of circumstances it's   the simple things whether it's a world rending  scenario or just personally intense Stakes   it's the little things that give us respit from  that that's a very solid point I think we have   explained the ending indeed friends communal  what have we got here friends people who have   become friends even though at first they were just  strangers to each other that's true and they're   all kind of you know inhabiting the same building  like in friends they don't you know sleep in the   same room but they're neighbors kind of if you  make the house an apartment building yeah you know   what I mean and then uh you know rich friends and  then uh uh uh Kevin Bacon is Gunther you know he's   down the road at the cafe fair enough he gives  there were six people at this home six members ofs   I think the show Friends has way more to do with  it than people realize it does it does I think   you're correct about that and then for a show  that was often criticized for being just only like   white folk yeah got a little bit more diversity  here that's right this was diverse friends this   was diverse friends is what we watched I'll be  there for you have that song playing over it when   the question posed at the very end with mersy and  Ethan Hawk was will you be there for me will we be   there for each other when all this [ __ ] is truly  hitting the fan yeah and are you on the level with   me can I trust you will you be my friend that's  that's what I yep yeah it's beautiful man that   was good saying that's probably what it's about  right I think we have explained the ending and so   and you hear Julie Robert's voice outside who was  on Friends emphasize this enough yes we hear her   voice as uh as young uh Rose is sitting down to  watch the show so we can assume that she's going   to be found by her mother and that they probably  all will hold up in this Panic Room for as long   as the resources can go around I think they I know  that we didn't get to where they find her but they   see they see where the house is it is their house  the timer is set they are going back they say that   they need to go to the bunker I think it's safe  to assume that they will they all end up bunker   down there together and then fight over what we  watch on TV okay what was the name of the people   who were there in the house the ho the Thorns  the Thorns yeah where were where were they I   don't know they got out of Dodge maybe we we're  not explaining it see that's the thing is maybe   because they were Rich enough to already have this  off the books Panic Room maybe they had Panic Room   underneath the yes or maybe they went someplace  else even more secure they have like a private   island someplace and they got out early cuz like  you know maybe they gave Kevin Bacon a a heads up   you know because he was like Hey you know here's a  little piece of information for free your friends   the Thorns why don't you go check them out huh so  do you think Mahaw Ali was right we're moving on   in that category uh right about which thing about  him saying he was breaking it down for Ethan Hawk   uh gotcha gotcha of saying like this is what's  really going on this three-step thing you know   and the implication is that the United States is  doing it unto itself or we are being attacked and   this is this is their plan well no the message  I took from it is is if we follow these steps   we cut everybody off from everything and then we  create you know uh simultaneous chaos everywhere   then the people this divided nation of people will  will take care of the rest Naturally by you know   destroying and eating each other basically perfect  I love to hear you're so pent up here in the here   in these divided states that uh yeah they'll just  we'll take ourselves down you know all they got   to do is introduce a little chaos and then you  know the misinformation the Lea flits all that   stuff give us a million directions of where to  point the finger and then you know pretty soon   yeah we'll just all be Scavenging and and looting  and all that stuff wow wow and you believe that's   what was really going on I believe it he seems  convinced it seems convincing and it also doesn't   seem like it it's both to me it's like I think  logically speaking yeah it is some kind of you   know uh tech-based attack because of course that  that seems like a very Salient message we rely so   heavily on these interconnected things that we  don't fully understand the nature of that if we   were to be removed from them we would be many  of us quite helpless and uh and so yeah it's   like that seems like a very conscientious way  to take down you know a country or whatever it   is and you see the bombs going off so it seemed  relatively reasonable to assume that that what   he is saying is happening is probably the case  however you'll never know or you until it's over   in a situation like this I imagine you wouldn't  really know and so I think yeah that that little   piece of ambiguity suits it but it does certainly  seem like that three-step scenario he was talking   about yeah I mean a lot of the themes also seem  to about dealing with reality of the situation   yeah even right down to it's probably on the reac  highlights and I'm going to watch my words here   even right down to um the teen boy in the midst of  everything is still like oh I'm going to go look   at my phone and try to touch myself a lurk on this  girl here yeah yeah like but he can't ultimately   uh continue to do so um and so but again and you  know like even while they're dealing with stuff   and they're drinking and and vaping and whatever  that they're they still try to find like forms   of escap is and when so much of this is about  trying to face face reality deal with reality   the cigarette The Vape all those things yeah man  so um that's one one theme oh man this movie is   so multi-layered it's it's it's it's got you  know it's got some layers it's based on a book   is it I assume so uh didn't it say it was based  on a book it was adapted or something there was   some like line at the beginning yeah adapter for  the screen or something like that there was some   some text there that implied based on something  yeah uh okay so we have that themes that's some   good themes yeah well and yeah and at what point  do you accept that the I I think that was a good   theme that they brought up the idea of like oh  is there a shadowy cabal of people who run the   world or is the scarier alternative that no one's  in control and all these things all these tenuous   agreements we make collectively that form Society  are that are ten and can be rattled at any moment   animals animals yes well for me I was thinking  about I mean I've tried saying it but I would   get so caught up in oh my God I feel like there's  important lines happening here yes so I need to   kind of talk while also try to absorb lines to  me brings it back to the uh roots of Earth for   us sure like when you when you think about like  the land of animal there like this should be a   planet that is an humans are just another part  of the animal kingdom but we have created this   distinction between humans and animals yeah  and through this distinction we have created   metropolises and technology and all these things  that have slowly corrupted and destroyed our Earth   in turn destroying the land of our um our uh our  neighbors animals and that's at least what I was   taking from it that was my interpretation of why  there was all this emphasis on animals and messing   with migration and stuff like that um so yeah I  don't quite get what deer means I don't understand   I don't know the actual Association of like what  does what does horse symbolism mean what does deer   mean let's do some deer symbolism deer symbolism  in many cultures the deer is a symbol of Spiritual   Authority during the deer's life antlers fall off  and grow again and uh the animal is also a symbol   of regeneration and Christian imagination the deer  is a symbol of piety devotion and of God taking   care of explain to me what it means in the context  of this movie John well all the deer and that   is one of the more overtly Supernatural feeling  elements of this movie that does flirt with that   tone I guess to me it's perhaps the animals sort  of uh maybe recognizing like Hey we're already out   here we're away from the city we're in much more  of Nature's Domain than man's domain even though   you have this fancy house here maybe they are  recognizing like hey you're kind of being returned   to our community in a sense we are sort of here  to recognize you and I feel like the daughter both   of the daughters are the ones they seem to most  communicate to so maybe there's like a a mother   nature thing both of the daughters though they  have very different Vibes and functions within   the story seem aware of and kind of attune to  things in a way that other characters aren't   or it seems like they're at least not trying to  delude themselves the way other characters are   so maybe it is that they have that direct link  to the fauna around uh you know in some kind of   spiritual kind of sense I mean that is that is  the point at which the movie does get the most   sort of abstracted and and you go like okay is  this this must really be happening given how this   movie has presented itself thus far so there must  be like a hundred of deer here uh so that part of   it is is interesting to me I'd be curious to hear  about people's interpretation of how overt that   symbol is used but you also have the flamingos  you know which uh which I don't know if there   is a direct Flamingo symbolism I'm way ahead of  you there oh what you got what you got symbol   of beauty Grace and a sense of otherworldliness  the presence of flamingos in the story serves as   a contrast to the chaotic and unsettling events  that occur they represent a connection in nature   what I've been getting at here a reminder of the  Tranquil world that exists beyond the chaos of   human existence again bringing us back stripping  us away from these man-made Creations yeah they're   just here going all I really that's what every  animal sort of means here in some sense I mean   yeah especially the more unless you're in a story  that is very removed from the trappings of modern   life especially modern Western life uh yeah feel  like there's always a little sprinkle of Spanish   speaking woman uh well I mean that'll be another  thing is is our I I guess that's a heightened uh   version of our inability to communicate in a  crisis scenario and you can't help but imagine   maybe if Ethan Hawk had kept his head H you know  he could have been the person we all hope to be   not just the person that we think we would  be given the kind of attitude his character   displays much of the time and lead up to that you  would expect him to be the guy to be like get in   and we'll figure this out but at the same time  he's getting overwhelmed she's I I would love   that one of those things where I was sitting there  going man like a Spanish speaker in the audience   probably has like a little nugga of context the  rest of us don't and uh and I think that's cool   I think that that at least yeah zero in on the  fact that a chaos situation like this there will   be yes literal language barriers but in the more  figurative sense there will just be communication   breakdowns when everyone is in a panic and people  are going to handle that situation sloppily   that's part of the Controlled Chaos that they are  introducing here I guess it's also the start of   like the fear of the unknown yeah mhm yeah exactly  and I mean it it height it zeros in on some of   that xenophobia certainly not in the most doesn't  exist in this movie not in the most malicious way   but in a way and and what fear does to you and I  mean too yeah like uh I don't know there's this   was from an earlier point but there is a certain  amount of bargaining I feel like everybody in this   movie does where they're like no no no there's  somebody out there like someone's going to take   care of his there is an order there's a hospital  we can get to and it's you know everybody is sort   of getting how far does things need to progress  before you get to the point where you're like   well all we have is what we have right here in  front of us you know yeah yeah movie kind of   hits the nose on hits the nail on the nose head  hits the head on the nose nail when it comes to   you know the stuff like the electric cars and  um no they're saving the world me one you got   with the Tesla billionaires um it's okay it'll be  rivan in a few years from now but but I think it's   I think it actually spoke more to the point of I  just love how it was like the automated version   of the electric car well and that's a slight leap  because I don't think cars do that yet they they   they test that technology and that's not been  implemented yet for my understanding because it   uh like fully self-driving no driver intervention  or no driver intermediary just like fullon no they   usually need to I mean they I'm sure they can  uh but in order for them to usually operate you   need a human body in the driver seat in order to  do it yeah because there are just certain things   but I'm sure they can program it where they don't  need a body in there well they're they're doing   it now and the reason it's not been made consumer  is because they haven't been able to fully rectify   the machine's inability to account for certain  anomalies so it will still hit stuff so part of   me is like okay this is a bit of a fantasy because  they're not just selling Teslas that self-drive   but I mean it is the exact fear you have about  those aside from it just malfunctioning somebody   like maliciously using them to jam up all the  roads is like diabolical everything crashing   in on itself and that sequence was so was very  intense very intense and also with um yeah like   when Julia Roberts is spouting about of like  how we do these things thinking we're making   a difference when we're not and that is us in a  nutshell and I was I was just listening to um John   Oliver's uh um segment about chocolate oh and I  had no idea just the amount of child labor that   goes into the production of our chocolate industry  and yeah that was quite eye openening I've been   very blind to this and I I love chocolate so I  was like let me buy as much chocolate as I can   before I finish this video before my guilt kicks  in and I stop buying chocolate any well I have a   year supply of chocolate it would just be a waste  a waste now so I should at least starving kids who   would love to have that chocolate I should at  least finish this chocolate you should or else   those poor people they're their hard work will go  to away yes you don't want to spit in the face of   all that hard work cuz they just get compensated  with the joy of knowing that you're enjoying the   chocolate make me question myself though like  oh maybe I shouldn't buy chocolate anymore holy   [ __ ] I have to only buy very specific ethical  and probably quite price but even to that point   though it guys get to a point where even they  there's only so much even for the most ethical   of companies there's only so much mandating they  can do to ensure that like the way how through   the process of this to this to travel to this  that their chocolate is of the purest non child   laboring chocolate you they they've even had it  covers that like they even they've had to there's   only so much they can do to ensure for the most  ethical ones uh and and so my point being is that   with what this movie is talking about you know  that what perhaps what we think we're doing as   the real contribution to change is is truly not  enough that the impending doom of it all because   there's their environmentalism talks here uh I  think this whole thing of world decaying in on   itself is very much an environmental allegory in  a lot of ways there's a lot of different things   they're talking about but at the end of day it  keeps coming back to like it starts off with our   character of Julie Roberts who is essentially  our main character saying she hates people but   in the end of it all when everything's stripped  down we will need to rely on each other the the   few who we can trust yeah cuz that's all you  have either way as people yeah yeah and that   is kind of like the nebulus of humanity I think  it was Darwin oh could be wrong here careful but   I'm going to say it it's up to you if you want  to research it I don't want your Pagan theories   that there are things about um I remember the  meaning at least is that uh it Humanity has   thrived through cooperation that's how we Thrive  so when you strip us down to our Bare Bones that   love is kind of in our DNA of cooperation that's a  love sentiment yeah it's a bunch of [ __ ] I don't   like it at all [ __ ] not in the real world not  out here in the Mean Streets not when the chips   are down and everyone's desperate um and let's  talk about performances um I loved I loved it   I love I mean it was like watching a play yes  I love Julia Roberts's work here it's been a   while since I've SE like I saw her in ticket to  Paradise with George Clooney and much as I love   watching my old celebrities fall in love what uh  you didn't love the movie I liked it a lot okay   all right I do I like I like romcoms I liked  it a lot good um for anyone who doesn't know   I I watch a lot of romcoms it's like I don't ever  react to them but I'll go through my pH where I'm   like watching nothing moram comes and and I love  that I quite enjoyed it it was a lot of fun it was   a little different too and and uh what's wrong it  hit me finally hit me where I recognized the actor   plays Ruth she's on that episode of Black Mirror  she's the second episode yeah the documentary one   yeah yeah there you go yeah Netflix keep it in  house don't pay residuals right that's how we   do it we stable of actors we don't have to pay  much and there you go always ways this is kind   of a Black Mirror esque episode very much um and  uh yeah so I think Julia Roberts was excellent   here showed the most growth yeah and a character  that that is not the most glamorous to take on   but requires a lot of subtle chops from an actor  yeah yeah she was excellent her and Ethan Hawk I   really believed as a couple I think Ethan Hawk is  absolutely excellent he's a fire in every role the   guy ever does yeah no matter what genre he really  is like a chameleon he's special he's he's a true   true Talent yeah cuz he's just so he just seems  so natural in any role he slips into yeah and   even here is like he's not the tough one in the  relationship ship oh that whole useless man speech   broke my heart and I was like yeah that's a lot  of us yeah yeah that's me all the time yeah it's   like I don't know and and early on he even says  that thing he like your mom's the tech whiz you   know I'm just a thing he's just a thinker guy yeah  loved his work Mersa Ali commands as usual sure   yeah um I do love the dire it smart it was smart  of the movie to not to create an immediate plot   of like a horrible of like a terrifying Airbnb  situation gone wrong right yeah get barbarian   with us get barbarian make you suspicious of  like what's really at play here is it going to   be about these people caving in on themselves as  the movie does lose sight of it's like a mediate   plot and become all about what's going on in the  world and commentary like it does not in the last   like hour it does just become about that it's all  symbolism and topics I guess we're all who we say   we are there's chaos happening all around I did  kind of wish the movie focus in a little bit on   how do you keep it about what's really going on  between the people in the house yeah and that   plot and then letting the commentary also coincide  with that versus let's really just make it about   what's going on out here yeah and Fun Stuff um  so yeah that was one part of it but the performan   has remained as strong as ever from beginning and  like everyone had chemistry the children writing   children I I think writing a like uh I don't  like to criticize a child's performance and B   I don't uh I I I often fluctuate on a criticism  of writing children because I I don't ever go   that's not how children talk because I don't know  children and and I don't work with children so I   don't really know like I think about how children  now as opposed to when we grew up uh they grow up   with cell phones and iPads that give them access  to um all kinds of media that would that might   make their the way they speak and their vernacular  and all that be much more um more advanced wide   ranging than how when how I grew up because of  the amount of exposure they have that I some   people think it limits one's capacity to learn  but at the same time it could also enhance one's   language just due to the amount of exposure they  have you know it makes a lot of things more second   nature and it is interesting because we live in a  time where you know you have the idea in your mind   from my you know from our perspective I'm sure of  like movies where kids talk like adults and it's   a Trope and it's and it's a precocious child yeah  but we also now live in a moment where kids or at   least younger and younger kids are able to speak  with more and more adult inflection and vocabulary   because of the vastness of the internet they have  access to and like yeah yeah I think you you said   something during the movie which I think is true  it's like you know it's hard to write kids partly   because you're probably drawing from kid talk  from when you were a kid which was probably a   while ago and now we live in a time where more  so I think than ever before just again because   of what the advancement of the internet and every  kid having an iPad or an iPhone is like yeah there   is a different it's not the same as precocious  child of yesterday year but it is like a different   tonality of of characterization I guess and  it is hard to nail down certainly and I mean   between the two I I think I preferred Rose to the  brother prefer the character yes yeah I thought the we hear audio doesn't matter doesn't matter  doesn't matter as long it's not on   the video um so yeah I I think the  the teen boy god what the hell is his name it's definitely coming from in the computer  though what is this what is happening right now   yeah it's come from in the computer where is  it we're so late in the video it's on this   confusion is happening what's going on out there  John running it can't be uh I'm it doesn't make   any sense I'm just going to close out all of our  web Windows just close it all out shut it down   all right I mean there's only so many things I can  shut down now shut it shut it all down something's   playing on a loop it's Coy's voice from some other  earlier recording and I don't like it I don't like   to hear it nope I don't like to hear a vager  even if it's not in our our little record even   if it's not our headphones there's a tiny bit  I don't like any of it John it's bothering me   it's gone it's bothering all right cool let's  just keep talking we're fine it's gone we're   fine um so teen boy like while like very much  no depth at all to that character no not even   like an attempt at depth anti-de depth yeah he's  just that typical teenage he's a horny teenager   and like what else is there to and my sister's  a drag and I'm going to do everything I can to   not open up to her yeah yeah uh I didn't really  care for him uh but I weirdly found the writing   on him more believable just because of the cliche  of a teenage boy and I know what it's like to be   a teenage boy so even though I didn't behave like  that when I was a teenage boy I know known enough   teenage boys when I was teenager to get that  and uh and her like that that was my point of   of of like I can't sit here and tell you that  little girl wasn't believable because I don't   know what it's hard for me to wrap my head around  finding this little girl believable even though   I'm sure there are little girls out there who are  just as like hyper intelligent and precarious and   thought-provoking but I still liked her character  enough um to enjoy when she was on screen the   rose character the the young young one yeah I  I I guess I was maybe drawn to her a bit more   just because of how like strange her vibe always  was she almost reminded me of the little sister   from hereditary but like way less you know sort of  intentionally like oh this is a strange character   um but I don't know I I can't disagree with you  watching all the West Wing yeah it was great u   i mean her whole role is TV but I guess I kind  of only this Aon soring episodes I was like okay   this is a little too self-aware for my taste right  now yeah it's one of those things where I'm like I   don't necessarily put it Beyond a character like  this to have that level of observation or detail   or digging to her interests or whatever uh but  but that's a very writerly thing is to to name   check and just because you have Julia Roberts  being like you watch West Wing suddenly makes   that believable I guess um Ruth lamp shading a  little bit Yeah Ruth I liked Ruth I thought Ruth   I mean Ruth has to occupy the in between space  between the young kids and the adult adults and   uh and I liked the inter I mean I liked her  kind of vibe because she is the most uh the   most contrast from everybody else and I think that  her presence does interesting things for all the   different characters and yeah like I I like they  should have ridden her to be more seductive that   would have been more cliche so you could have  been more tempting to Ethan Hawk's character   yeah yeah we can turn this into knock knock  all of a sudden yeah I don't know like I like   that they flirted with that stuff and didn't go  there I like that she's like yeah he's not that   guy like he wanted to but he's not that guy uh I  liked things like that and I thought the interplay   between her and her father it's like even though  they are presented as a unit and you know there   is a very Us and Them between you know the two  pairs at first us or them damn Coral uh but I   thought that their tension between each other was  also a nice detail like a microcosm because of   course he's going to try and be managing her  expectations but also she's super sharp not   very complacent not likely to be the kind to just  accept whatever ever Comfort is being sold th% and   I mean you know in terms of all the characters  even though mersel Lai seems to have the most   concrete actionable knowledge of all of our main  characters she does seem to be the one with like   the most pragmatic attitude oh for sure um and I  thought her performance was uh was quite good too   so I don't know I I like that character I liked  her too I liked her too um everyone was really   good I thought the direction for for this was Sol  I actually really appreciated how we would see   actual outside world stuff instead of just only  keep like I I like the stories where they just   keep it contained in the house don't get me wrong  like I I'm a sucker for that and there's there's   one part of me that's like o I would have liked to  have seen that version yeah um but uh as it stands   I do think that this version that we got is pretty  compelling and I like the glimpses we would get   when they would be like on the beach or when they  would be on the road and the tesas are crashing   or when they see the outside world uh New York New  York City uh being destroyed feel convincingly cut   off from everything yeah yeah what's this movie  called again Leave the World Behind Leave the   World Behind sorry guys got to prep some footage  of simultaneously while talking cuz time crunch   oh we got Kevin Bacon too Kevin Bacon I think um  I think as Kevin Bacon has gotten I I wasn't a big   fan of Kevin Bacon when I was a kid okay but when  he's got as he's gotten older I have really grown   to like like the older Kevin Bacon performances  a lot the grizzled Kevin Bacon World weathered   Kevin Bacon is is a very good bacon I really like  I mean I've always I've always kind of like that's   a lie I've always liked Kevin Bacon but I've never  but I've especially liked him as he's gotten older   yeah I've been way more drawn to his like older  man performances yeah no because he brings a good   amount of like presence and and and yeah he can  show up and and it it feels like effortless but   also like he showed up and here you know it's  like you see him in that one shot and the movie   was compelling enough that I forgot about him for  a long time and even though he's only in a brief   sequence you know meaningfully uh I thought yeah  he still showed up and really kind of you know   fully committed to the kind of character who he  is and it's another aspect of the movie that is   certainly playing on and I like that this movie  played on and used but didn't get lost in not get   lost in but I don't I think it's it's appropriate  the way the movie used the sort of appearances   and the suspicion based on appearances you see  this guy and you're like okay of course this is   the guy who would be prepared for all of this and  of course for the two of us the the yepy city guy   and you know person of color out here on your  American flag doorstep you know maybe there's   some precariousness to this situation and uh it's  all together different feeling than you know when   they have the first meeting with you know Julie  Roberts and Ethan Hawk on the porch um but yeah   it's like without it manages to encapsulate a lot  of the fears and paranoia people have some that   are Primal and you know everybody has and some  that are more societal and some that are based   on yeah like cultural reservations and prejudices  and what notot yeah I thought it was great and I   think the dire so I think the direction overall  was excellent um I think there's a lot of like   really wonderfully shot sequences with um some  distorted angles and um some beautiful symmetry   rout and they managed to make and when they wanted  to they have to make play scene movies feel very   like cinematic and they did yeah and and I think  too when they did do sequences that uh were like   out on the road or whatever on the beach they  weren't like overshooting their load like it   felt very much like oh no they they know what  they're doing and this is really composed um music   I thought was excellent all the hearkening back  to like old school types of horror again I kept   getting like Twilight Z own flares from from it  uh really enjoyed that sound design flourish they   kept going for oh yeah sound design uh was great  too yeah um now I guess and the the needle drops   were were nicely contrasted for the most part now  I guess the one thing left to talk about is did   you like the movie I did I did it's it's a movie  I'm going to keep thinking about it it's a movie   that I can you give me that hard drive certainly  uh it's eced enjoyed in an immediate sense like I   I love the kind of movie that makes you sit there  and makes you sort of Wonder and puts you in the   paranoia and it feels like some big conspiracy is  going down and it's it's kind of neat to me that   a poit what is essentially a political thriller  about a terrorist attack or ostensibly is that   they cut to the moon at one point could be aliens  who knows uh but you know it's almost like a   political thriller without is interesting did you  did get the sense of like is it an alien invasion   yeah and it's fun cuz in that way it feels feels  like you're watching yeah an Apocalypse movie or   maybe an alien invasion movie or maybe some weird  the happening or whatever the house knock at the   cabin ended up being or something The Cabin  in the Woods yeah at the last house in the   cabin you didn't see that movie did no I haven't  but it's it's it's very I mean that one's more   I don't want that one's more religious based um  sure but but but at least from the trailer that   sort of like something is coming and there's  we're isolated and paranoid and this will be   kind of like a play maybe th% uh yeah so I I love  that kind of a Vibe and I like that this movie was   able to kind of keep you guessing as to like what  version of that are we watching I thought it was   appropriate where they landed to give you pretty  much the idea without fully confirming the idea   as we've sat here and talked about it it's sort of  uh uh uh calcifying in a pretty agreeable way with   me like initially the way where it ends I was  like oh it would be such a meme if they end it   right here but also in thinking about it I'm like  where else would I have ended this because it's it   it ends off in a way where part of you is like  well this could easily keep going you know but   I think at least tonally right now I kind of feel  satisfied with what it is I don't know exactly how   great I would say this is compared to what its  aspirations are but I don't think it's falling   very far short of its aspirations and I think  it's at least right now I thought it was pretty   good I'm going to see okay uh I haven't seen the  audience score yet okay right now it's got a 75%   on uh Rotten Tomatoes I haven't seen the audience  score okay uh I just want to get my opinion before   it's influenced by the audience score then I got  to change my entire point of view you update it   for the the crowd um but before we do that John  um here I'm creating this little fold what did   you think of Obama's producing I think he's trying  to uh you know have another career post presidency   yeah he's just got nothing now he's just out here  hustling trying to get a buck uh can you put this   in there yes of course I do think it's fun and  Charming that this is what they chose to produce   uh sure I think they produce other stuff um but  you know I think it speaks a little bit I I think   it it makes it puts it in a certain kind of lens  Obama is secretly telling us what to look out for   in terms of apocalpse I'm giving you government  secrets in this movie guys ex I learned this this   is text keep this close and learn from it uh I  I like I did like the movie I I enjoyed it and   um I was really into it like the first hour and  15 hour 20 minute Mark um and and I kind of did   you know sort of reveal already like where movie  started slowly losing me a bit was when it does   get bogg down more in the like everything stays  strong like solid Direction uh and the acting just   remains phenomenal the acting really I think helps  save a lot of that last hour for me um and while I   like the plot while I like the plot and everything  they're commentating on and and and stuff and and   sometimes the writing it's weird this movie is  one of those things where and it's all open to   interpretation it doesn't ever it's it's a a ver  it borders on becoming so expositional about what   its point is yes and then it also simultaneously  leaves you with it didn't quite tell you what   the point of the movie it didn't quite leave you  with the answer like I it it weirdly leaves you   in this terrain of exposition heavy and ambiguity  like at the same time and normally you don't get   both and and and it kind of leaves you with both  it it definitely is one of those movies that is   is doing a big contrast of like here's the plot  stuff and we're not going to spoon feed you the   actual story stuff like yeah and I and I think  that um I I could have used a little bit more   character driven narrative and not not lose sight  of that basically as where it kind of seemed like   it wanted to talk more about its ideas and then  it would remind itself the storytelling maybe   it's like it in the book I don't really give a  [ __ ] we're talking about the movie all right   um that it would remind itself like we got to be a  little bit about the characters and the intensity   of what's happened to the characters uh like  everything with like Maha Ali going to the beach   and all that and the suspicions and then can they  trust each other and should they go should the you   know Julie Roberts and Ethan Hawk family should  they leave that was all so gripping to me whilst   doing the commentary of what the hell's going on  in the outside world like I was really enjoying   that and and then when it it it kind of brought  it back around to the scene with Kevin Bacon at   the end of like that immediacy and I was going  like I don't want M Le to die right now and nor   do want Ethan Hawk to die I don't want anyone to  get shot right now yeah totally like I hope none   of these guys get killed yeah um and it's not  like I ever stopped caring during the film but   I did start to feel its runtime at a certain point  yeah because I wasn't as invested in the character   narrative and I was finding it be more about what  it wants to talk about than it does want to tell   it through the lens of the characters and and  and I and that's the one thing about its focus   that I wish it it honed in on a little bit more  sure so overall I I really did like it like I   think there's a lot of craftsmanship to it that  I really enjoyed and you know for a stream for   in a day and age where where Netflix dumps like a  billion originals and and and whatever uh I could   see why this one stood out why this one became  a conversation uh not only because of what it's   conversing with this audience about but because of  its caliber of film making that it does you know   and like there is some real film making to this I  could have seen this as a theater experience you   know uh it doesn't feel like made for TV or made  directly for stream like I could have seen this   as a theater going exper I think they I think if  it was the theater they probably would have wanted   a more concrete ending they probably would have  wanted something that lays it out a little bit   better for its audience CU I could see a scenario  where some people feel like it's abrupt the way it   ends M where where you were able to cuz I didn't I  actually didn't think it was going to end when it   ended yeah whereas you were here going please let  it end now ple and it did and you were satisfied   and for me I didn't even get an inkling that it  was gonna end right there sure and I bet a lot   of people might not because because you watch as  like a bunch of got a low ass audience score that   is really that is really low Holy balls that is  a low audience score cuz you do watch a bunch of   things that are Loosely together like really  kind of scatter and then the movie ends it's   like they're all separated and they're all seems  like most people are pretty upset cu the ending I   bet cuz you get this quick 5 Seconds of scrolling  cuz you reach this Crescendo with all the deer and   you're like wow where you and and and something  happened with the son I guess he just did have   lime dis like a lime disease fast acting teeth  falling like like yeah you have these crescendos   of like they've run off into the woods and they  have this thing with the deer and she's looking   off at the beach and the explosions happening and  then Ethan Hawk and MERS they're all down the road   and there was Kevin B and the girl she's in the  Panic Room and uh and and yeah it ends at a point   where Everything feels I think innately kind of  like you're in the middle of something you know   and uh and yeah I think it's a thematic end point  that at least again to me right now I I'm not 100%   clicked in on but I'm like yeah I I appreciate the  The Quirk of this choice but I can also absolutely   see people hating that because it it gets you  to that point where you're like the only real   Direction you have is when Ethan Hawk and Marshall  Ali are leaving Kevin Bacon and they're like well   I guess we're just going to go back and we got  the medicine but the rest is all like you know   they're they're shouting still trying to find Rose  and Rose is off doing her own thing and like yeah   I can it just all it all feels like a bunch of  big things presented and then it's and then it's   immediately done you know yeah yeah I because I do  think that sometimes the I do feel like sometimes   the dialogue overall while again like so much goes  to the the directors especially I mean the actors   especially and then occasionally certain Choice  with the directors uh with the direction like like   um when like when Mah Ali is first giving this  the Spiel spiel about government agent defense   person and not saying who it is yeah and then  there's this little moment where he like put   puts his hand on her to stop her from getting her  drink and he gets a little more serious and the   camera Clos I'm like okay that was a good way to  make that more interesting yeah um cuz sometimes   it feels like they're it could be easy for some  moments when I pull out to go this kind of feels   like rambling pretentiousness sure sure sure  sure but I didn't ever fully get there uh with   any with any moment even though at times that's  what I meant by how it would ride this line where   I feel like I'm getting so told what this movie  is about and then going what is this movie about   exactly yeah yeah totally I get you cuz yeah it's  like you have to look at everything and assume   that most everything we were being given or shown  is important somehow and I didn't think we needed   the like as much as I felt like Kevin Bacon played  that role and this is coming from a from a man who   identifies as liberal or right I'm tell you this a  guy who identifies as liberal and and as funny as   I thought the moment was I thought it was really  funny um oh God the Korean or whates yeah as much   because this movie is produced by Obama yeah um  and Hollywood is full of a bunch of leftists you   know that's right Bry I think that you could  have Sav yourself a lot of when already a lot   of this is very much like leftist Scare Tactics  or whatever the [ __ ] you want to call it right   as much as it's already there and so much of the  sentiment we obviously agree with right I think   cutting that out probably would have helped the  movie points get across a little bit because then   it's especially for that to be so close to the end  of the film yeah that does kind of cloud a lot of   I'm like because you don't need to like if if this  movie wants to be about its messages if this movie   wants to be about its commentary yeah to some  extent right and like I think doing something that   specifically obviously is going against you know  like your your your typical right-wing personality   um which I think was in the form of Kevin Bacon  at Le that's the way I saw it big American flag   or like the Korean or tiny you know [ __ ] all  sorted out yeah it's meant to appear a certain   way at face value yeah yeah yeah so uh and I mean  I I think having that line excised probably would   have saved a little bit of blowback perhaps yeah  I'm curious cuz I mean you know maybe I'm read   more into it than I need to I I personally just  feel that way I'm I am I don't know I'd be curious   to hear people's thoughts I mean I think it does  draw uh the main I mean Julia Roberts and Ethan   Hawk I feel like are drawn as kind of a a yepy  neoliberal couple in a way that def isn't overt   as it is in like a get out but like in a way that  is clearly commenting on them as people and and   hey even though they might appear you know like  this you know uh both beautiful and also you know   like uh I don't know they they they get to the  dysfunction of their family later but you know   they appear as like you know a hip and with it  couple and he is very open and accepting of things   and and and all that and and yeah they're not  really all that they want to sell you that they   are uh and then yeah you have Kevin Bacon who's  like a much more bold-faced sort of yeah it's just   a thing you would expect from a character like  that and so the one is more subtle and the other   is not yeah because you have like Julia Roberts  who was pretty much admitting to like yeah I   had subconscious racism definitely factoring in  when I first met you like she's her character is   admitting to that and the whole I hate people in  general you know I hate people in general or even   like I I could see the Spanish-speaking Woman  as a fear of the unknown again with you know um   yeah like I I people coming into our country all  people but when I have to deal with them I don't   know what to do and I don't feel like we are as  the same as I would say in poite conversation or   whatever yeah yeah and you know again to hammer  in that point of the movie of we aren't really   doing enough yeah and we can say a lot and we  could think we're contributing but we're really   not yeah and there's so much we do every day that  is kind of meaningless and performative and all   that stuff yeah I think well when you when you  get to that whole thing at the end with Kevin   Bacon's character which is those little couple  lines uh it's like yeah a little a little much   it is a little I thought it was really fun I  like the delivery intentionally funny like I I   thought delivery was so good know yeah um but I I  do think that you you're already like pushing the   boundaries your political point of views here this  movie is very political it's extremely political   yeah and it's not and and it's not like without  that beat you wouldn't be able to communicate the   idea that the leaflets that Ethan Hawk finds you  know being you could still establish that the same   thing happened with leaflets printed in Korean  or Chinese or whatever uh and that it's all part   of a misinformation scheme without that little  character you know Nick of like oh yeah and he   doesn't care what the difference is sure sure you  know at first he seems so sure it's Korea and the   second someone's like are you sure he's like well  I don't know it could be anything which again I   I guess I'm I'm torn because it is funny and it's  like a real thing and it serves the moment in that   initially you think again oh this guy must know  and then it's like well he doesn't really no he   just has like a vague piece of context which  is about as good as you're going to get yeah   but yeah I mean at the same time it is one of the  more uh directly caricaturist is elements of the   characterization here yeah even though he's the  one who's a survival one he was the one who had   was ahead of the curb here and he helps out I mean  he does eventually take the money and give them   the kill even though but and I just think oh but  then taking a jab at that uh kind of negates like   like you're already painted this guy already like  not the greatest light yeah you don't need to do   like that additional stuff because we already  know what's better about Ethan Hawk and mshel   Ali being able to team up where clearly this guy's  not going to be willing to team up with y'all like   the contrast will be there whether we have that  yeah beat or not yeah man but um overall I liked   it overall I thought overall I really enjoyed it  and um it's a good time and uh maybe one day I'll   watch it again maybe it's no bird B s De maybe not  a movie I could not finish oh a movie I haven't   even started couldn't do it a I was like I'm going  to put it on and I was like 40 minutes in was like   I don't think I like I don't think this mov is  for me wow I'm excited now I check it out I did   not like the there was so much about it I really  didn't like it really yeah just kiding I'm bored   with it oh I have so many questions now as the  movie we'll leave you with um I think I don't   know stop 40 minutes in definitely question finish  it couldn't stand characters man couldn't stand   it that's fair that's fair like that felt like a  streaming movie to me for sure this felt way more   above that okay okay did it feel uh even though I  know people like Bird Box way more than like this   movie I was going to say did that movie feel very  high on its messaging did it feel very like we're   doing profound [ __ ] over here in the bird bu I  don't recall thinking that I just remember really   not finding the characters believable and and to  me it was the characters I just didn't like the   characters okay good to know and I didn't think  the good actors um were enough to elevate it or   help me see past how terrible the characters were  Sandy didn't save the movie I don't remember who   that is Sandra Bullock oh yes the lead you did  not
