I echo what others have said about the teenager girl character; the character is silly & unauthentic.
There is an unauthentic feel to the whole film. These 4 people neither look like or act like war journalists. The closest to a war journalist, probably is the female lead character.
For this film to work, it was so important for the audience to relate, to connect, in order to believe. This film plays like an earnest middle-class teenager's idea of the USA in the midst of a modern civil war.
This also watches like it was created by someone who doesn't know Americans. I am not an American but I'm married to one. I have spent a lot of time in the country & have travelled around it. The vast majority of Americans, regardless of political views, strike me as warm & welcoming. Reality is, they are just like others in Western first world countries & beyond.
America has its extremist eliminates like everywhere else, but, I don't buy into Americans, on mass, acting like Hillbillies on a buck shoot.
Americans love their armed services.
A US civil war wouldn't happen in this way & these 4 don't behave like war correspondents.
