This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
... View MoreThrough painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
... View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
... View MoreOne of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
... View MoreReally bad accounting about half way through the movie where they try to dispel the fact that most of the 2009 deficit was inherited from Bush policies. For instance they try shift a $410 billion omnibus spending bill to Obama. Folks, an omnibus spending bill is no more than an congressional appropriation for funding the departments of government that have been approved under a budget -- that 2009 budget was Bush's.** They add another $60 billion to Obama for the auto bail out. The auto bail monies were funded by Bush's TARP before Obama ever walked in the door. I'm surprised they didn't try to shift the cost responsibility of the wars to Obama. After all he was the Commander in Chief when they made this so called documentary.** (Yes there was about $8 Bil in earmarks tacked on for Rep & Dems -- but let's ask Bush about how many earmarks he approved during his tenure)
... View MoreIt is good to hear more information/history on the US. With so much media around trying to persuade our minds, it is refreshing to hear from the other side as to what may be really happening, because ultimately how well we are informed is how we vote, and how we vote determines our prosperous or pathetic future. There were some impressive patriotic passages from Reagan. I wish more of the 'rewritten history' examples were discussed in more detail to expose their who, what and why. School teachers from the past have encouraged students to seek from all media ... " When you read/hear any piece of media, the article SHOULD answer two questions ... 1) who is going to make money from what is about to happen, and 2) who is going to gain power from what is about to happen. If the media does not answer those two questions, then you are being lied to." I would also say that if it does not answer those two question, it is media propaganda, or media BS/brainwashing.
... View MoreMuch has already been said by other viewers that I need not repeat. This is a pointless waist of film, because the only viewers it will convince are the ones who already agree with the viewpoint before even watching it. But there's one additional factor that should be an obvious sign to anyone considering this film...Look at the so-called external "reviews"; It's amazing what garbage ends up on IMDb. I can only assume those critics (NOT) have their own agenda in hyping this piece of tripe. I know thoughtful and intelligent republicans who are my neighbors and friends. Nothing from them is in this film or those pandering reviews.
... View MoreVery simple message backed up with facts and speeches from Democrats and Republicans...I do feel that you can't tax your way to prosperity..it has to come from tax relief to the business sector...Democrats don't realize that and so they continue with stimulus packages. I did like the 9.5 million going to finding Aliens from out of space...and they can't close off the borders to aliens coming through Mexico into America. This is insane government at it's best. When you leave you will know both sides of the political street...Nov 2 is an important date that will decide the course of America into the future...as Obama said, That is what elections are for..
