Hello, Movie Buffs!
10 years ago an alien race invaded Earth and since then the humans must adhere to a strict set of rules and their new overlords, the Legislators. In rundown Chicago, Gabriel Drummond (Ashton Sanders) joins the resistance, to ignite a war against the Roaches (Legislators). However, he soon finds himself under the careful scrutiny of police officer Bill Mulligan (John Goodman) who wants to crush the resistance’s plans for freedom and keep the “peace” going between the alien and human race. But Earth is anything but a peaceful place. Will the resistance succeed in their plans for freedom? Or will the Legislators’ succeed in crushing their resistance to the core? Directed by Rupert Wyatt (The Gambler) and co-written by Erica Beeney (The Battle of Shaker Heights), Captive State (2019) is an entertaining and surprisingly thought-provoking alien invasion docu-drama.
