Flynn disappoints on multiple fronts, failing to deliver a balanced or engaging narrative. The film is marred by a one-sided portrayal that seeks to glorify Flynn and cast him in a heroic light, often at the expense of nuance and factual accuracy. It indulges in excessive self-aggrandizement, presenting Flynn as an ultimately infallible figure, a narrative choice that feels more like a public relations exercise than a genuine attempt at storytelling.
The script is laden with clichés and lacks the depth needed to explore the complexities of Flynn's career and controversies. The direction is uninspired, with scenes that seem designed more to bolster Flynn's image than to provide an objective account of his actions and decisions. The portrayal of key events in Flynn's career is overly simplistic, glossing over critical details and controversies that are essential to understanding the full picture.
Moreover, the film's pacing is erratic, with slow, tedious stretches that fail to build any real tension or engagement. The characters, including Flynn himself, are depicted in a flat, unconvincing manner, making it difficult for viewers to invest in their stories. The lack of critical examination or balanced viewpoints leaves the film feeling shallow and unfulfilling.
In the end, Flynn falls short of being a compelling biopic or a credible historical account. It comes across as an overt attempt to rehabilitate Flynn's image rather than a genuine exploration of his life and career. This approach not only undermines the film's credibility but also alienates viewers seeking an insightful and balanced perspective. Overall, it is a missed opportunity to engage with a controversial figure's complex legacy in a meaningful way.

An amazing authentic heartfelt documentary about a real American patriot who loved his family and served his country with honor and distinction, despite how the Washington swamp tried to do all it could to destroy him and what he loved the most because he got in their way. This is an in-depth look at what really happened to General Flynn and by extension, the country.
The film not only moved me to tears, it left me feeling encouraged that good people who fight for the soul of America and suffer grave injustice for their service can still prevail.
The documentary is not only intriguing, feeling like a political thriller throughout, but at many points it's raw with emotion. It's hard to imagine any honest person watching this would not be moved to want to cheer at the end for the underdog.
The message I got from the movie was about how faith is tested and how heroes and leaders are forged. It's a reminder that what it means to be an American is not the U. S. Government. It's in the hearts of people like the Flynn's and all the those who sacrificed and dared to do the right thing, even when the most powerful forces were against them.

Simply amazing. We'll worth the watch - you will get a lot of context to the other side of the Trump years. Every person who has formed an opinion about Trump and his Allies based on media narrative should take a look at this film. Wether one agrees with it or not is irrelevant, it tells the other side of the story and that is something we have been lacking in the US.
Flynn truly seems to be an outstanding person and deserves an apology from everyone who has played a role in attempting to ruin the Flynn families lives. It needs to be a very loud and very public apology so that every corner of the US knows that Flynn has been vindicated.

This movie shows haw corrupt both Political Parties in the US are. Anybody who is politically aware, knows that the Russian Collusion, in the Trump, administration was One Big Lie. The ones who were accusing Trump, and General Flynn, of collusion with the Russians are the ones who fabricated all of the Lies and have proven that they are guilty, and all the concrete evidence against them, is out there. After the 2020 election, Pence, showed his true colors and now is one of the most hated politicians in his party. General Flynn was going to expose the corruption and stop some of the pork spending, and the corrupt politicians on both sides of the aisle did not want to be implicated, so they went after General Flynn. They were also trying to go after General Flynn, by implicating that his son who he was in business with, committed a crime. The pathetic, corrupt politicians, do not care how many innocent lives that they destroy to accomplish their goal. They have also done the same to Alex Jones. This movie tells what General Flynn, had to go through to prove his innocence and show the corruption in the government, which is being exposed more everyday.
Every voter should watch this movie to understand the lengths that the Deep State will go to protect themselves and ruin a good, honorable man. They can use the full power of the Justice System to falsely accuse and prosecute innocent people, even if they have to break laws and rules of the Court to do so.
This movie describes, with a clear time-line and evidence, how General Flynn was framed and prosecuted for a crime he did not commit.
I follow the news closely, but I was not aware of many of the details of this saga. It is truly a profile of an American hero and his willingness to fight what seemed to be insurmountable odds to prove his innocence and do what was right for this country.
