Matt Greene A perfectly frustrating capsule of everything infuriating about American politics, and specifically the 2016 election. Every single one of "Stone's rules" is the opposite of all that is decent and good, and I often found myself laughing at the sheer insanity of all this. A portrait of an evil genius who helped to destroy our political system probably more than anyone else.

zat-83174 It is an important documentary to get background information on the ugly politics business in the U.S.A. when it is voting time. Do we have to thank the film team for this effort? Definitely. But they couldn't have done this without the fundamental trait which is driving Roger Stone in front. His ego which want to be remembered in history and do not want to be forgotten. When his pure ego is getting predominant he gives information away he would definitely deny at another time. With additional intelligence on the consulting company of Roger the movie shows clearly how the Trump voters get fooled by the same people who are pulling the strings since decades. Is Roger Stone entertaining and the movie funny? - Everyone who gets a malicious joy out of the misfortune of other people will find it funny and thrilling and Roger Stone admirable. Others will find the movie educational - it depicts human hubris on large scale.

VandelayIndustries This documentary is a thrilling history lesson that paints Roger Stone for the persona he has created for himself -- a deviling political provocateur whose ruthless appetite for controversy and infamy influences all things he touches, for better or worse.Whether or not you're a Roger Stone fan, Trump supporter, liberal, conservative, American or otherwise, this documentary is fascinating to watch because Stone is such a unique character in an otherwise boring and mundane facet of society, the American political system."Get Me Roger Stone" is essentially a history lesson and mythical propaganda machine at the same time. Is Stone really to blame for all the political scandals he has a hand in? Or is he merely a larger than life figure who happens to revel in his own sense of political clout? The documentary does a pretty good job of letting the viewer come to that conclusion, albeit through an expectantly liberal lens. The editing, production, and musical score always play against (or with, depending on how you look at Stone's persona) the protagonist and while it does not overtly disparage the man, it certainly pulls no punches either.The only truly atrocious bias in the film comes from the brief clips of Alex Jones's expectedly erratic behavior which aims to align the "racist" "conspiracy theorist" and overall "unstable madman" with Stone's persona. I felt it was a very cheap shot, and while I'm not an Alex Jones supporter in the least, the footage they use is definitely cherry picked to make Stone's association with InfoWars to paint him as a fringe lunatic. If you watch the documentary carefully, you'll see that Roger Stone is anything but an irrational, crazy, or otherwise unruly brute who has a hand in nearly every political campaign in the past forty years. Instead, he's merely an ingenious machiavellian who will always play the political game as if he has nothing to lose. As a documentary I'd give it 6.5/10 As a character piece, I'd give it 9/10 Altogether it's a strong 7.

Belnick this is a 9/10, but I had to give it 10/10 because of all those that vote 1/10 out of personal hate.I like this documentary a lot, I expected it to be leaning left, left to the extreme, but it it is well balanced on right and left i thought considering who this was about.late night with steven kolbert got me to listen/watch a few episodes of Alex Jones, which got me to listen to Roger Stone. Alex Jones might have some crazy ideas, but it is easy to filter out truth from conspiracy by searching on both left and right viewpoint and go with the logical choice, but this was not about him, this was about Roger Stone.It is remarkable how much this man have influenced American politics for so long. did they create the cigarette smoking man from x files after Roger Stone ? I really enjoyed this one and if you have political interest you will like this too
