    Excellent

    This movie presents for thinking people a true picture of what is happening today in the US. Unfortunately, as shown by the reviews, half the folks in the country don't have a clue, except to ask what can the country do for them.

    Watch for yourself

    I read through almost every review, I can say from the reviews I read, (especially the 1-stars) the vast majority didn't watch the movie and so are just saying they did and giving it a 1 star for that reason.

    One constant rhetoric in the reviews below is the "Parties Switched" - one of the only things that "switched" with the parties is the preference for government size.

    Spectacular accurate take on history. Just watch for yourself. If you were an honest person, you could watch this movie and walk away able to at least consider a view opposite your own. it doesn't mean you have to agree. In order to think, you must be disagreed with though (unless you have multiple personalities that can argue with one another).

    Very informative

    Great movie. The beginning with the clips of leftist media people crying about Hillary's loss was hilarious.

    Eye opening

    Fantastic, eye opening movie. D'Souza is a political genius who not only knows his history, but accurately relates it to the corruption we see in today's politics. Seeing leftists critique this movie is as satisfying to watch as when they found out that crooked Hilary wouldn't be president.

    A Documentary about history being made.

    Just saw this. Not a complete overview of the current political climate, but it points you in the direction to research and make your own conclusions.

    Shameless critics bashing a film solely for political bias reasons is another reason I #WalkedAway.

    • Trivia
      In May 2014, Dinesh D'Souza pleaded guilty in Manhattan Federal Court to Campaign Finance Fraud, violating federal election law by making illegal contributions to a United States Senate campaign in other people's names. D'Souza is a citizen of India, and non-citizens are not allowed to donate to American political campaigns. D'Souza later claimed that he was falsely accused by deep state agents to silence him for telling the truth about the corruption within the Democratic Party.
    • Goofs
      Sophie Scholl said "What we think and write is thought by many others but they are afraid to say it out" at the public trial at the "Volksgerichtshof", not to the Gestapo. The death sentence for her, her brother Hans, and other White Rose associates was handed down by judge Roland Freisler, not a Gestapo officer. Sophie Scholl and Hans Scholl were executed together.
