Episode #52: Assassination Nation

Welcome back movie lovers to another episode of the Reel Film Nerds podcast!  Today we review a movie that 90% of you have never heard of, Assassination Nation.  This movie has had a limited release and was picked to go nation wide from the Sundance Film Festival.  It is not for the faint of heart, but it is an amazing film.  Mysterious Mike and Matt also talk about press conferences, the late Sen. John McCain, LGBTQ, sexting, and hackers.

Assassination Nation is a dark, gritty, and eye-opening film.  It keeps you thinking during the movie and days after you witness it.  The sets are great, the acting is amazing, and the story is incredible especially the social commentary.  Matt and Mike were both surprised by this movie and really enjoyed it.  They once again agree on a rating, 4 out of 5 Reels.  Wait is this becoming a trend?  Assassination Nation is not for everybody but if you love film this one is a must see.
