Ploydsge just watch it!
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Amy Livingston (alivingston-16543) All you will hear from this film is everything that you don't want to know. But Michael Ruppert said it anyway. It's easier to not give a damn to everything that he's saying and everything that's happening anywhere. But he has shown that it might not be good idea if you aim to live and not just exist.
Mister Brooks I can't believe I just found out about this doc now, but I'm sure Michael Ruppert wouldn't be surprised. Compelling not just for the information, theme and messages, but also for time spent with a complex, highly intelligent, interesting, troubled man who has refused to abandon his cause, his integrity, and his drive to get the information he has in his head out to the world in order to wake us up, against all the forces that would rather this information not get out and those who would just rather not hear it. He's been right before, and while some of his predictions may be slightly off in terms of timeline, or some events, based on the current state of affairs, I somehow think he may not be that far off the mark.
Bearish78 While Michael delivers some stunning insight about the direction of our society, most of the information is not new, and he offers no solution. He is in essence like any other political figure - he reiterates known issues, and offers no viable solution. Well that's not true, he offered a few and then slammed them down. He speaks in absolutes which is indicative of a closed-minded individual and not the critical thinker he claims to be. He completely negates humans ability to adapt, but speaks of evolution. Again, if you get a rush from being told that you're probably going to suffer and wither away, and that there is nothing you can do about it, then this movie is for you.
Carl The best documentary I've ever seen, Never got boring and sets the impending alarm bells off. What he talks of could effects 99% of the human race.... and all within a lifetime.The truth does hurt and ignorance is bliss. But ultimately people should know the likeliness of truth. Capitalism is the main culprit in all of this, as well as laziness, wastefulness of resources and an overpopulation. It won't be the end of the world, it will be the end of us, as we are now. A lot of people will struggle, way more than they do now. He ain't a prophet as some will suggest, he's just thinking for himself and coming to the conclusion he has. His points are valid and I admire anyone who can stand up and shout from the rooftop, of the stuff people/companies/governments brush under the carpet. Even if his time-lines are inaccurate, I don't think people should disregard his claims and regard him as a crackpot. What he says in this astonishing interview is weighing up a likely outcome that will effect virtually everyone on this planet.
