One Battle After Another (6.7/10)
The Plot
The movie introcuces us to a group of freedom fighters who try to fight the system. I kind of had the same feeling when I watched Civil War where I didn't fully understand why there was a war while watching that movie which took away from my initial enjoyment. However, that movie really grew on me afterward, while for One Battle After Another it still doesn't really make much sense to me. The story in full however, was pretty clear and well worked out and you don't exit the theater with the feeling thinking "what did I just watch" needing to look for an explaination.

The main female lead played by Teyana Taylor also was a character that annoyed me for some reason so that didn't help. Dicaprio as always was great and the supporting cast also did great. The way Sean Penn played the charicature Military dude to me was just too weird and felt really strange from start to finish.

Conclusion
I didn't hate this movie and kind of enjoyed it for what it was while at the same time it makes me avoid any other movies directed by Paul Thomas Anderson as there was just something weird about it which isn't my thing. So a respectable 6.7/10 while I'm surprised that this continues to get a 8.2 score on imdb.
