Goodbye America is a gritty exploration of the geopolitics surrounding the U.S. Navy's withdrawal from Subic Bay in 1992. The film captures the tension and unease of a transitioning military landscape, with a palpable sense of foreboding as violence erupts following the announcement of the base's closure. The performances feel raw, grounding the narrative in a reality that blurs the lines of patriotism and loss. The pacing is deliberately slow at times, allowing viewers to really absorb the atmosphere of change and uncertainty. It's distinct for its focus on a relatively lesser-known chapter in American military history, offering an inside look at an often overlooked cultural shift. The practical effects and on-location shooting really immerse you in the setting, making it feel all the more authentic.
