Netflix’s “A House of Dynamite” Movie Premiere at the New York Film Festival

Netflix‘s A House of Dynamite was a captivating film that questioned the power of the government.

Director Kathryn Bigelow brought an edge-of-your-seat film to the silver screen. A House of Dynamite, starring Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson and Anthony Ramos drew the audience in with its unique angle. The plot was showcased chronologically, but in a unique way. Instead of focusing on one main character, the same plot played over from the varying point of views of the military, the security and the president’s office, which piqued my interest. It emphasized the way that we all deal with challenges in a magnitude of ways during a crisis.

The movie’s captivating take on experimenting with point-of-views drew me in immensely because it was extremely realistic on top of being cinematic. We witnessed each department’s struggles, conversations, breakdowns and decision-making when it came to threat of a nuclear power. Kathryn humanized each character by going beyond their title to showcase their day-to-day problems, family interactions, and personal relationships in order to set the stage on the bigger picture. Without giving away the ending, I will say that it was conversation-worthy. It started a debate and important conversation amongst movie-goers, which proved what Kathyrn set out to do. She didn’t just want to create a movie; she wanted you to be a part of it.
