jonsmith1928 It's sad that Jon Voight ad James Woods,two actors who I've always admired in the past,chose to waste their talent and sully their images by appearing in this trashy, obvious garbage. I guess Woods has always been strident with his political viewpoint but what the hell has happened to Voight? Wasn't he fairly Liberal-or at least not so insane? Between the insane accusations that President Obama is a "secret Muslim who hates America"and his appearances in crap that is quite beneath his talent,he has lost my respect. Where have you gone Joe Buck? My wish is that artists just play to their strengths and not to their ideologies.Everyone is

cbl12 Offensive in some ways, and Historically unfair on Neville Chamberlain, whom I admired for not wanting war, considering the horror the Great War had been, but he is maligned unfairly by many Historians, yet JFK himself stuck up for him in his book. I will admit I am also not certain about some of the Historical claims made in this Film. But it is interesting these days that Hollywood would even bother trying to show a more Conservative point of view, which I think is about time, although I will admit it would have been better had it been in a more serious film. I am prepared to admit that not everything in Hollywood is made by Liberals, but it seems that a fair bit is. Only now are some people moaning about this when one finally gets a film that does not entirely slam Conservative values when no one cares about all the Liberal rubbish we have to sift through that comes out of Hollywood especially. As I admitted, this is not always the case, but if Hollywood does have a Liberal lean, which I know it does, it is their choice, but at least have the decency to admit it - which also goes for those Conservatives also who put their slant on things. To me, this film hit the nail right on the head. What, are Lefties upset about the apparent Right of Centre opinions in here, or even the fact that those who disagree with the Liberal Left should even have one ? Get over it. You may think you can brainwash everybody, but some of us like to think for ourselves. I am not an American, and I have admiration for the good things about both Your major Parties, and do not endorse one or the other, as my views are a bit of a mix. I agree with the idea of Universal Health Care, and if the Rich Right do not want that, then pay your workers a decent wage, and make sure there are jobs for everyone. On the other hand, I do believe in traditional Christian values, and will admit that a lot in this Movie was not Christian, but I do not believe in forcing Christianity on people - it is always meant to be a choice. It just seems that when we Conservatives are genuinely expressing our own ideas, you assume we are deluded, just because we disagree. If you can think for yourself and come to your beliefs that way, fine, but at least have the courtesy to extend that to others who may disagree - I do.

David Curtis (david0453) I saw this movie by chance on Danish TV last night. And I enjoyed it. It is from an openly conservative viewpoint, which I found refreshing, and the parody of Micheal Moore is quite good. It is also quite funny. It probably sets off all the 'politically correct' alarm bells - but I quite like that :) It has a similar structure to many other 'parody' movies and uses big (ish) names in cameo roles - so it is not ground breaking or new in that sense. What is new is that several actors were prepared to be in a movie that could have damaged their careers in some ways due to the political stance that is taken. However, I personally feel that far too many otherwise good movies are dominated by a 'politically correct' agenda.

rvershay2112 IMDb gave this film a 4.4 out of 10, and the few reviews I've read seemed to support this rating or even suggest that it be lowered. I give this film a solid 6 out of 10. *NEWS FLASH* I consider myself a right-winged conservative. I disagree with many ideals which the left and Michael Moore hold, but I do respect the effort they put into their work and have not let my personal prejudices impede my effort to give this film an objective review. That being said, I shall digest no further.I have seen this film three times and each viewing has been enjoyable. I would not rate this film as one of the greatest comedies of all time, but I do believe it holds its own alongside many titles of this decade. As hinted by the title, the plot applies the popular novel by Charles Dickens to relate a story based in modern-day America to present a right-wing depiction of dilemmas faced by Americans today. Popular celebrities are used to enhance this effect, with some making cameos while others are presented by character depictions (Michael Moore for instance). Using this outline the film runs smoothly as both characters and plot are clearly defined and depicted. In short, "An American Carol" is a solid film with many laughs throughout.The chief problem many reviewers have with this film lies in their inability to understand the film itself. They seem to overlook the fact that the film serves as a satire, and become offended when it portrays the left as zombies (are there zombies in the film? there may or may not be, better watch and find out). Ultimately, this film has the same effect as SNL portraying a president, or "Hot Shots Part Deux" portraying Saddam Hussein (of course Saddam didn't wear the same socks as the Wicked Witch of the East). Viewers need to realized that the film will make fun of left-wing liberals, and use outlandish examples to further certain points; yet this is the process of satire, and the viewer does not have to agree with the overarching themes to find the jokes amusing (I laugh every time Family Guy makes fun of Ronald Reagan). In closing, "An American Carol" is a good film which provides an abundance of quality jokes which most viewers would find amusing; and although it may take heat today, I honestly believe that in years to come it will serve as a classroom depiction of a common mood in America today.
