... View MoreI never knew this movie existed till it popped up on AmazonPrime. After watching it, I was blown away that it had such a low rating from IMDb. Consequently, I decided to throw in my 2 cents. The Movie: This movie was created to show the significant role America has played in the history of the world and to address some of the modern-day criticism of our country. D'Souza addresses them chronologically, starting with Christopher Columbus, and lays out the counter-arguments in 20 minute or so blocks of time for each selected argument. Its mix of dramatic and documentary-type filmography was both different and entertaining for me.Accuracy: I've looked up some specifics from the movie that I found particularly interesting, such as the magnitude illness affected the Native Americans (including the origins of the comparative Bubonic plague), number of indentured Irish servants who worked alongside the slaves, and some of the more autobiographic moments depicted. All of them seem to stack up to my findings. Political Slant: Although the movie had a conservative perspective, there was nothing in the movie that I considered slanderous. Most of the political referenced made by D'Souza were supported through the video footage from TV or other various forms of media he provided. A viewer might not like what the film says, but nobody on any website that I've seen has garnered a solid, factual argument against his points. Overall: I am politically disenfranchised with both parties and both 2016 political candidates. Being in this position might explain how I could view the movie as optimistic and hopeful. When I finished watching it, I really did feel proud of the accomplishments my country has achieved and the influence it has on the world. It made me feel like I lived in a place where people really could be whatever they choose to become. This is a view I want my children and grandchildren to have of their home in years to come. I would watch it again and I would encouraged others to do so.
... View MoreI couldn't believe what I was watching....a 145 minute propaganda highlight reel from an immigrant who has become naturalised that then asks you to see ' both sides' of the story?Nice try..I think a 30 second commercial advertising Dinesh D'Souza would be as equally distasteful, but mercifully shorter.When D'Sousza says that as many blacks owned 1,000 or more slaves than whites in Louisiana, I actually wanted to vomit.When he featured a lone black self made female millionaire as someone who is a symptom of the benefits of slavery, I had decided that I no longer wanted to spectate D'Souza's cloudy agenda and personal highlight reel.Avoid this rubbish....seriously...just avoid it.
