The worst documentary I've ever seen. It has all the sins I hate in docs: the filmmakers pummeling you with their opinions, looking down on it's subjects and becoming unnecessarily political (of course they start referencing George Bush, who couldn't have guessed they were going to do that?) Also, with the flashy editing and multiple inserts they certainly treat their audiences as if they were stupid. Pure, uncut shit.
Eye-opening and interesting - of course I'm sure not many people have seen it or care to face humanitiy's spiraling decline into, well, stupidity.
Disjointed and terrible screenwriting. And what's up with those flashy ten million clips of inserts everywhere? To trigger the viewer's attention span or what? I hated how those things distracted me from listening to what they had to say. I thought the show had potential with bringing up some key ideas on defining stupidity, but not like this; The ideas were scattered with hardly any links whatsoever, just dashes of headlining research topics of intelligence, and that's a pretty stupid (pun intended) move on a topic this grounded and vast, especially when one of the topics highlighted was media AND people who thought themselves smart. The only benefits this documentary serves straight on a platter for its viewers are confusion and the crippled debris of crashing an idea into a brick wall.
It criticizes surface-level popularity and unthinkingness, but then this film itself does not get very deep either.
