It felt more like a heist film rather than a "Fight Club" manifesto on the need for radical environmental terrorists. So it's not as preachy as it could have been - quite frankly, I think it could have used a bit more Tyler Durden spice; but it's a minor criticism. "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" is pretty much what it sounds like, a group of environmental activists decide to take action and blow up an oil pipeline in Texas to help stop climate change. Will this film plant some potentially explosive ideas for people? For sure! Will it cause conversations on the environment to erupt? I certainly hope so. But is it a good movie? Absolutely yes! Think of William Friedkin's "Sorcerer," or Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" combined with "American Animals" and "Hell or High Water." It's an exciting film that will keep you duct- taped to your seat like an explosive device waiting to explode. Catch this one in the theatres before time runs out - trust me, it's the bomb.
