Critic Reviews
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Those who think George W. Bush won fair and square might well test their convictions against the evidence presented here.
-
Ty Burr, Boston Globe
Presents a convincing case that the wrong man took Florida and the country.
-
Robert Roten, Laramie Movie Scope
Slicker, better-documented and more convincing than most documentaries on this subject.
-
Shawn Levy, Oregonian
The finished products are more serious and well-crafted than that, giving voice to the concerns of credible experts and eyewitnesses, and mounting relatively low-key, cautiously reasoned arguments.
-
Paul Sherman, Boston Herald
The film should be required viewing for all Americans.
