The moviemakers, by design, bent over backwards to keep from choosing sides, and I felt that at times that stretched the credibility of the narrative a bit. I mean, a scenario where Texas and California team up to overthrow the government? 'Whatevs,' as the kids say. Still, technically it was well done and the acting was fine. Any reservations I have, and they weren't dealbreakers for me, lie with the script.
