Some Critics Quotes:

"A House of Dynamite stands strong as one of the best depictions of the modern political climate on film."

"The Oscar-winning director and screenwriter Noah Oppenheim scare the pants off of us theorizing about just what might happen in a very plausible real world life or death scenario, the epitome of a damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't situation.."

"A House of Dynamite is an exceptional, anxiety-inducing thriller that is one of the year's best. Every single time Kathryn Bigelow makes a movie, she reminds us that she is one of the best directors."

“Kathryn Bigelow, the thinking person’s action director (see The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty), returns to cinema after an eight-year absence and delivers an extraordinarily accomplished feel-bad thriller."

Important Note: Masks are optional in the theater. We will sit separately and Meet after film in lobby. Weekdays have fewer people which makes it the best time to go to the theater to minimize exposure to Covid.

Movie Description

A House of Dynamite : Political/Drama/Thriller

A House of Dynamite is a political thriller about the U.S. government's frantic, high-stakes response to an unidentified nuclear missile launched at the country. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow, the film is divided into three parts, presenting the same 20-minute crisis from different perspectives as officials race against the clock to identify the attacker and decide on a response to the impending, catastrophic disaster. The ensemble cast, including Idris Elba as the President, navigates the "nerv-shredding, pretty infuriating" nightmare scenario, emphasizing the fragile balance of power and trust in the face of mass destruction. 2025 112 Minutes
