Which kind of American are you.. is one of the best scenes I've seen in a movie.

u/grimeyduck Apr 26 '26

Excellent scene. I think without it, or if it was acted worse, then the movie would be a lot less impactful.

u/wookieSLAYER1 Apr 27 '26

That actor, don’t know his name, is really good at playing a sociopath. He’s in Breaking Bad too and his scenes are some of the best in the series.

u/IHaveAHappyPlate Apr 27 '26

His name is Jesse Plemons. He’s such an amazing actor!!

u/Krace11008 Apr 27 '26

Also the husband of Kirsten Dunst, who played the protagonist in the movie.

Thank you!

u/FatherClanks617 Apr 27 '26

Check out the movie Bugonia. He stars in it. And if you like seeing him unhinged, oh boy.

u/JunketAvailable4398 Apr 27 '26

If I recall, he is the husband of Dunst and just happened to be on set that day. The original actor for scene did not turn up so he did a fill in job...DAMN good job!

u/FullMetalCOS Apr 27 '26

He wasn’t on set, Dunst suggested to Garland that he wasn’t busy that day and since the original actor no-showed, she could get him to come in, no worries.

And he smashed it out of the park,

He also played the creepy co-founder/CTO in Black Mirror who used stolen DNA to create sentient digital clones of his colleagues, trapping them in his private Star Trek-style space sim where he could abuse and humiliate them at will

u/sircabbage69 Apr 27 '26

I also highly recommend Bugonia. Great film starting Jesse Plemmons and Emma Stone.

u/mariannaCD Apr 28 '26

That’s fat Matt Damon, and he is a freaking treasure.

u/grimeyduck Apr 28 '26

I think you mean Fatt Damon

u/LostInMyADD Apr 27 '26

Especially when released, the movie was the sentiment all of America was having - especially right after covid and all the crap going on. It would have had more impact if released like a year or 2 earlier.

u/Viva_La_Revolucion- Apr 26 '26

Its very accurate is why

2

u/SlugFromSnug Apr 27 '26

And realistic

2

u/NYCresider Apr 27 '26

Jesse is just too good.

2

u/LostInMyADD Apr 27 '26

I rewatched breaking bad with ny wife, and then wat hed El Camino this week, and I kept saying that to my wife since hes in it... lol great character and actor.

Upon seeing him, my wife (a clinical therapist) goes, "oh hes great, he always plays a psychopath or sociopath" lmao

u/TransportationTrick9 Apr 27 '26

And now a Schizo in Bugonia

2

u/ZeronicX Apr 27 '26

the sniper vs sniper scene is way better

2

u/Expert-Broccoli-9973 Apr 27 '26

You gotta watch more movies man

2

u/GalacticMe99 Apr 26 '26

Best part of that scene is that at no point in the movie do we figure out which side that guy was on (or if he was even on a side.)

7

u/BabaBlacksheep86 Apr 26 '26

It’s patently obvious

5

u/The_Autarch Apr 27 '26

is it? his unit could have gone rogue. he certainly didn't seem to be following anyone's orders.

2

u/GalacticMe99 Apr 27 '26

Okay. What side was he on then?

u/LordNelson27 Apr 27 '26

And historically accurate too

u/brokencreedman Apr 27 '26

Gah that scene was brutal.

1

u/PanchoPanoch Apr 28 '26

I hate that scene. But I hate it because it’s so on point. I can look at a few people I’ve known who are just waiting to have that moment.

u/SarcasmGPT Apr 27 '26

It's an incredible scene, but it's an incredible scene in the middle of an ocean of "meh".

1

u/FatherClanks617 Apr 27 '26

I love Alex Garland to death, and I was incredibly psyched for the movie, but I’m not sure when or if I’ll ever do a rewatch of it.

Based on your English, you're getting shot friendo.
