Movie's Confused Political Identity
- The film constantly shifts political and religious positions, making its message incoherent and surprising.
- Hosts conclude it ends up pro-Muslim despite earlier anti-Semitic and conspiracy elements.
Actors Reading Off Camera
- Hosts recount noticing actors reading off-camera and inconsistent eye contact across scenes.
- They compare the performances to actors following cue cards, making dialogue feel staged.
Low Budget Obvious Onscreen
- Zero-budget production signals show up as missing logos and shabby sets, undermining credibility.
- Background people blur with extras, making it unclear who is acting and who is just present.
