Driftless

People seem a little put off by this fictional film, a drama, not-non-fiction, account of people and problems. A microcosm of society, American or not. A complaint to the diversity of rangers: there is quite a bit of diversity if you get out of the Midwest and this could be Anywhere, USA. Problems happen in state and national parks and this is an example of when things go wrong.

If you feel like being brow beaten with a perverted political point of view, this is for you. Otherwise skip this insufferable waste of video storage. Amazon should credit enceinte that watched this one month of free Prime. I can't stress enough that this should be avoided. Tell your friends, your family and neighbors, even if you don't like them. You can't hate them enough to let them watch this.

I appreciated the fact that it didn't get graphic in the movie -- no dead bodies, flowing blood, slow motion killing. The storyline is a good tale, with so many vignettes going on, from Magas to supremacists to stoners to naive hikers to survivalists and then the backdrop of the heartless bureaucrat ignoring the river pollution. Well-structured. The striking drone shots were nice interludes. The best was the campfire scene--that was sort of the climax of the movie, actually, where Nova came to a realization. And a nice plot twist at the end! Good acting; well-edited.

If you've come here for a Fourth of July movie, you made a mistake. If you came for cringe political/environmental propaganda that makes CNN look like a top-tier production in comparison, you might be in the right place.

Do yourself a favor and watch The Bay instead, which actually implements a movie around its message instead of vice versa. Not that this should be classified as a movie so much as non-actors who cannot act simply reading aloud their cringe scripted lines. You will likely see more talent in your local High School plays than this monotonous propaganda trash.

The driftless area is so beautiful, but this movie is literally the worst thing I've ever seen. Period. Such horrible stereotypes and pathetic scripting. I cannot believe it got produced. Soooooooo BBBBbBbAAAAAD!

Go visit the area. You will love it. You will love the people. Skip this awful, garbage movie. I cannot say enough how bad this is.

It ended up being simply laughable and so bad my husband and I had to see it through to the end. The least they could have done was show more of the area. That would have at least been interesting.

The Mississippi River coupled with the insanely lovely rolling hills make it.

The House on the Rock was also weirdly worth the time and money.
