    boring

    I found this movie McVeigh boring,it was similar to the recent September 5 movie where we don't get to know any of the characters in the story in this case the innocent people ,what they were doing before this guy decided to kill and change everyone's life affected by McVeigh's actions forever. One reviewer said there was no judgement, and sometimes that is a good thing ,but not in this case especially in the heated political times we live in with all the hate in our country right now in 2025,it would have been nice to get a deeper understanding why he did this, of course we know the story, it was about Waco, In the film, it's there but it's vague, shown a few times on TV news footage ,the story should have been told as if none of us know the details from the actual event, and perhaps sending out a warning doing bad things even when you think you're making some good political statement, has consequences...innocent people died including children for McVeigh's political statement. The movie did show, this guy had a black heart ,no emotions,just a waste of a human life,it did show how he got the supplies to make his bomb, but that's where the movie stops, in fact the movie basically ends McVeigh driving off in his rent a moving truck, and then we see some real TV footage of McVeighs domestic terror act....but again the story would have been better if it was a re-enactment of the event as if i knew nothing of the event, where did he park the truck, how did he set it off,etc.what did he do after the event, did he go home and have a beer? His arrest and perhaps even his execution...for me it was just a boring movie, the guy was emotionless ,heartless which i am sure probably in real life he was but that left for a boring movie.

    Predictable

    Very predictable. I knew how it would end before the title card.

    OK, jokes aside, this movie was super flat. It left everything very 2 dimensional. Nothing felt really explored.

    I remember these incidents, and honestly, I feel I could have written a better movie, with more insight into the events based solely off of my recollection of the news from the event when it happened.

    It didn't really answer anything, and felt like it didn't even know what to ask. It was honestly boring, slow, and uninspired.

    I didn't go into it with high expectations, but DID know there was a rich bit of storytelling to be had here. Instead, it was barely paint by numbers regurgitation of the story.

    Lot of fake in this movie...

    This movie seems to weave a lot of fake into it's story-line... I can not find where McVeigh visited some Richard Snell in prison at all. That seems to be fabricated just like Tim's girlfriend "Cindy" in the story. Far as I can find, he didn't have a girlfriend (past High School days) and claimed to not know how to talk to them. Who was the Fredrick person ?

    The dialog/script in the movie is wonky, like any gun person (especially a decorated top shooter in the army) would ever call a handgun magazine a "clip". Only Hollywood does that, certainly not a gun enthusiast that travels in gun circles and cherishes the 2nd Amendment.

    How about the scene where the movie protrays Tim as upset over an encounter with a black fellow, and plots to shoot him... I can't find that in any fashion, the film seems to make up stuff as it goes along...

    What we do know is Tim was a person that kept to himself for the most part and was laconic with others. This is portrayed excellently in the film and that he bombed a Federal building... that is about all this flick got right... We don't get to see him at Waco being part of the upset folks.

    This movie is as much fiction as it is non-fiction, thus why I rate is so low... If you wanted to paint a picture, at least use crayons from the correct box to paint that picture.

    There is Nothing on screen

    If a movie could actually be beyond boring, this would be it. Timothy McVeigh had to be more interesting than he is portrayed here because in this movie he barely exists. Alfie Allen was an extremely poor choice to play McVeigh because while he is given nothing at all to do on screen, he is too old to play McVeigh and looks nothing like him. The film is just a montage of trailers, dated wood paneling , seedy bars and diners. We learn nothing about McVeigh or anyone else. The entire movie is the lead up to the bombing but virtually nothing happens. For some reason a romance is thrown in that I don't think happened and Allen as McVeigh just seems to wander from place to place looking miserable, disturbed and suspicious. The movie is so poorly made I had no idea who the characters were suppose to be in real life. There is very little dialogue, and it seems as if they decided recreating a time period was enough. An awful film with zero redeeming qualities.

    Slow with bad writing

    Seen this and was stoked. With a good cast but man it was slow as molasses. And I understand slow burns and what not but the writing was just atrocious. That may be too much or too harsh because I've seen way worse but it just seemed that the writing was minimal to say the least. Long drawn out scenes trying to build tension but it just didn't work. Felt bad for the actors a few times because they are all good. Bummer. Six out of ten still because I watched it all.....barely.

    Tracey Letts always is good and was able to lead his role, even though it was from a seat the majority of the time. Tough not too see ole Game of Thrones in Alfie.

      The film is based on real people and real events. (Even the film's poster says, "Based on real events".) However, the end credits say, "The characters and events portrayed in this motion picture are fictitious. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or to actual events is purely coincidental."
