Documentary Film Reviews

Maxed Out:  Pretty good.  Watch it.

Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price: Fair.  Worth a watch.

My Kid Could Paint That: A bit silly. I'd pass.

What Would Jesus Buy?: Stupid. Not really about what it should be about.  Didn't even finish it.

Private Dicks: Men Exposed:  Not very good, but Alan Abel pulled a great prank pretending to be a man of diminutive size.  Watch it.

Word Wars:  Eh.

Super High Me:  Silliness.  I only half paid attention.

The Business of Being Born:  Disturbing.  But watch it.

Lake of Fire: Fairly unbiased, yet only shows the crazy sides.  Watch it.

Strange Culture: Stilted.  Needs a lot more, but a story worth hearing.  Plus, when I was at Mass MoCA I saw the place where the art exhibit was supposed to be.  It peaked my interest.  Watch it if you have an interest in modern art.

A Certain Kind of Death:  Well made and interesting.  Watch it.

The Beautiful Truth:  I think I watched about five minutes of this before I vomited and turned it off.  Horrible.  Never watch.

Fall From Grace: Good.  About the God Hates Fags loonies.  Made me feel better learning how illegitimate they really are.  It's not like anyone is joining their cause.

Sick: The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan, Supermasochist:  This goes down in history as the only film that has ever shocked me.  I don't know if you should watch it.  If you do it's not because I said to.

The God Who Wasn't There:  Richard Dawkins is a tool.  But that's besides the point.  I watched all of 10 minutes of this poorly-made film.

Zoo:  I think my boyfriend considered leaving me after he caught me watching this.  Anyway, it sucked.


Mr. Death: Fred A. Leuchter Jr. :  This was about a man from Malden.  I didn't think a film about a man who made electric chairs for a living could be so boring.  The only think it shed light on was the fact that he really had no qualifications for this job.

Heckler: Fairly light-hearted, but very self-serving.  Don't watch.

The Bridge:  Depressing to the max.  Watch it anyway.  I also found the extras on how they made the film interesting.

This Film is Not Yet Rated:  I learned a lot watching this one.  Watch it.

Southern Comfort:  Watch it. Rewind.  Watch it again.

The Aristocrats:  Fun time. Watch it.

Devil's Playground: Amish kids go wild.  Worth a look.  Seemed really one-sided though.  Agenda= Amish kids are set-up for failure.

Cowboy del Amor: Such potential.  Falls flat.

Well that's all the reviewing I have energy for right now.  See? I slog through the crap so you don't have to.
