For knowledge about what you think is real in your surroundings, and the lies that have become the building blocks our society.

LampLite, I love this movie, love, love, love this movie! Testing your mind is one way to put it, expanding your mind is another! Fantastic film and very revealing!

Thank you for having the guts to post it on here! I don't think I could have done it, at least not without quite a few drinks lol!

Everyone should watch this film, EVERYONE!

DJ,
Is it anti-religion or something?

In summary? Well, it's about understanding that where we think we came from, what we think we understand to be true and what we see around us every single day is mere illusion. There is a very fundamental and basic truth that underlies every single thing in our existance, those who say they want to "protect us" (i.e. government, religion, etc.), everything we have been TAUGHT to believe is not as it seems. We've been lied to and this movie tells us the truth, it gives it in the most unabashed and raw way. This is a deifinate "Parental Discression Advised" film, but once you learn these things, you will feel guilty if you do not share this information with every person you care about, and even those that you don't.

Criticism
In addition to attracting significant public interest,Γ] it has been criticized for relying too heavily on anecdotal evidenceΖ] and for using unidentified, undated, and unsourced video news clips, voice-overs, quotes, and book citations without page numbers.Η]⎖] In one of its few mainstream reviews the Irish Times called it "unhinged" and accused it of offering nothing but "surreal perversions of genuine issues and debates".Γ]

This was from wikipedia which is for the most part, an unbiased source.

To me it sounds like extreme paranoia. I would hope this video isn't shown to children unless more of it's claims can be proven or backed with better sources.

Children should not watch this film, I am saying that as a parent who has seen it. As far as wikipedia, they are not nearly as tightly mandated as you would think. Although by saying that, I am discounting some of the information I have already given on this forum lol.

Watch the film and then give your personal review.

I finished watching the whole thing now. I don't know how much of it I believe. But like I said it was well presented. I would have to see this from other sources first to believe most of it. It does seem pretty conspiracy theory to me.

Well dj, do the research for yourself. "Don't believe a word I'm telling you, research and discover for yourself", that's pretty much it in a nutshell (or nutcase, what ever fits lol)!

The truth can be very hard to swallow sometimes, what would the public think if everything they were forced to believe was a farce?

Actually I think this is something your children should see before our education system has it's way with them.

I don't watch tv, when it comes to the news.

Air America,baby...it's a radio station for commies, like me.

Making jokes about it isn't going to make it any worse. Please get a sense of humor.
