American Chaos Reviews
I wish I had seen this more earlier
fascinating view. what was the most compelling is the authors desire to understand and ask questions (attempting) to exclude his own bias. I need to learn that.
I was very conflicted about this movie. I appreciate that the filmmaker was willing to listen to opposing views to his own, but felt he had a standpoint that even after listening to valid arguments he must've not been listening at all. It felt to me he was a one issue (climate change) voter and the fact that his brother tackled the issue for the Obama administration skewed his views.
If Republicans haven’t gotten enough whining from those idiot liberal demorats this movie is for you; if you are sick of listening to those sore-loser morons crying because they don’t know how to lose gracefully when their plan to take even more government sponsored control failed then don’t bother. The saddest thing about all of it is that the demorats don’t even realize they are the true disgrace to this country.
You may get an impression that it is not as much about Trupm's voters, but about the director himself.
I don't understand the admiration for Obama who was at best a Moderate Republican. The Dems had Super-Majorities in both chambers plus the Presidency, yet the best we could get was a right-wing healthcare plan with no public option...Hope and Change my ass.
I saw a test screening for FREE, otherwise I wasn't drawn to the subject. No surprise: it lived up to my low expectations. I'm uninterested in "exploring" the minds of those for whom racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, lying and concealing are NON ISSUES. Sadly, all the interview subjects come off as imbeciles or morons willing to embrace denial.
Powerful movie! A must see! Jim Stern is a brilliant story teller. This film is so important at this moment in our history.
