Heislegend There's one of two ways to look at movies like this. From the mindset of an objective viewer...preferably someone who knows little to nothing about who these people really are. Then there's people who will watch it having already reached a conclusion and want something to "support" their views. The objective viewer will likely come away feeling sorry for the film's participants. The other type will scream and yell "I told you!!" as the film gets twisted up in their own warped sense of reality. People can believe whatever they want and that's just fine by me so I'm certainly not knocking anyone, but how can you call a movie a documentary when (at least) half of it's audience has already drawn their own conclusions before even popping it in? To make myself perfectly clear: do conspiracy theories exist? Almost certainly. Is Alex Jones the best guy to get your info from concerning them? Absolutely not. The guy's been shown time and again to be an absolute nutjob who will do and say anything in the name of sensationalism. Hell, he even managed to pull Charlie Sheen down with him. Plus Jones, much like Jeff Rense, has a whole league of followers just waiting to call you ignorant or oblivious if you disagree, but will blindly accept about 90% of what these guys say as fact. But oh well...all is not lost. If you never wind up with a significant amount of power you'll probably never hear of these guys. If you do gain said power, they will attempt to tear you down regardless of your political affiliations or belief system about virtually anything. They will go over every minute detail of your life and claim you are NWO/Illuminati/Freemason/Knights Templar/Bilderberg/Trilateral Commision/Mastercard preferred customer until some idiot believes it. That, or they'll just flat out lie. And someone decided to make these idiots the subject of a "documentary"? Don't waste your time unless you're already a follower or unless you like to watch people unwittingly humiliate themselves. So, in a sense, this film is not unlike an episode of cops. A bunch of people acting like morons and unable to figure out what anyone else sees wrong with it.

slanderer12 First things first, the elitist drivel I read in the reviews would have made me laugh if i felt like we even saw the same movie. ... The reason I say that is, this movie was objective, not sympathetic of the activists being followed because they are delusional (remember conspiracies happen.. Iran/contra..Pinochet...Watergate) but proud of the dedication it takes to actually live your ideals and be active in what you care about. the fact that the directors were surrounded with some of the most voracious researchers for so long becomes evident if you actually watch them interviewed on the Alex Jones show on infowars.com or in their other promo for this movie. They are along for the ride, you cannot forget that, they are the first audience to this film as it happens live. The fact that they don't get involved with the material itself is because that is not the goal of this film .. and totally uncalled for in a day where polls show 80 percent of the people don't believe every last lie the dick and bush team posted on their road too more then a couple mass graves/torture photos and emails/halliburton contracts ups in the mid east. I mean lets remember who we are talking about. this movies is perfect for anyone wondering what the rabbit hole is like on a day to day basis, but will never convince you there's a microchip in your credit card/phone/passport. and considering how stupid some people are it makes sense this movie would get praise from some people who don't even understand the point. i see it as such... That America might be eFFed up enough to murder 3,000 people ONE DAY, and beautiful enough for us to tell you why it only takes 10 minutes to scramble an F16 in June and an Hour by September THE NEXT DAY (pentagon papers put themselves in the way)

The_Secret_Skull I got the impression from comments here and articles elsewhere that this documentary would be another expose on the alleged New World Order and related subjects. But that's not what this is at all.This film isn't about conspiracy theories; instead it's an intimate look into the lives and mindsets of people who honestly believe in them. It's fairly objective and relatively nonjudgmental -- so much so it might even come off as a sympathetic review of what they have to say if you're already a believer.However, if you previously dismissed people like Alex Jones as kooks, you might gain a very different kind of sympathy here, and it becomes more difficult to call those "911 was an inside job" demonstrators stupid. While misguided, all the people featured in this film are depicted as victims of obsessions that have targeted each of their specific vulnerabilities. This documentary doesn't support their positions but instead demonstrates how such ideas can take hold in otherwise rational people.Again, this is not done in a mocking tone. It's actually hard to come away from this film without feeling sorry for all the people involved. By their own actions, admissions, and candid comments, those featured here reveal that they're the ones actually wearing the blinders they're committed to telling everyone else to take off. On some level Alex Jones even seems to understand this, but his occupation forces him to stay trapped inside his obsessions. For others not so invested, time might be a simple cure if they can get away from the cult-like reinforcement their obsessions have encouraged them to seek.

lastliberal The idea of "The New World Order" is nothing new. Conspiracy theorists have been shouting about "One-World Government" for a long time. There are a lot of people who really believe that the UN or some organization like it will control the World one day.We have heard about the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, or the Bilderberg Group. The so-called "mainstream media" has ignored the "threat" according to the theorists, but with the Internet we now have an opportunity to pass the word along.The constant wars, the current economic crisis, and the quest for oil has just fanned the flames of the theorists. Did our government cause 9/11? Did they kill Kennedy? Is the Washington Monument a Masonic power source? Waco? Katrina? Ruby Ridge? Are they all part of some conspiracy? But, this documentary is not about the theories, but about the people who spend their time promoting them. You can dismiss them as crackpots, but they are real people. What drives them to do this? Is it the same as those that ring your doorbell with bibles or religious tracts? Is it any different than those of us who scream that you gotta see this movie? The people in this film seem sincere. Are they just dupes of an angry Austin radio talk show host (Alex Jones)? As much as they try to make these characters real, it is still hard not to laugh at them, especially when they start telling their followers to buy guns and ammunition.It was very informative and no matter which side of the fence you are on, it is worth knowing about.
