This movie would have been a major hit if it had come out a decade or more sooner. The pandemic obviously had a negative effect on the project. I cannot understand what people didn't like about the film, the story was full of suspense and twists, made me think, and made me laugh. Maybe too many people on the ultra-right saw it and didn't like it, because one could say the story is a warning to Americans about a certain elected official who would like to be the dictator of the USA and his misguided followers. If that was the case, so be it. I watched it on a long flight overseas and regretted not seeing it sooner. I don't know if it was nominated for any awards, but all three of the main characters - Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, and John David Washington were fantastic.
