9/10
Reading Between the Lines

Warning: Spoilers
I noticed many of the reviews here are overly critical of this doc calling it rubbish, accusing it of being filled with lies and having no real point. I am not here to say these people are wrong because I do not believe everything the film attempts to prove. However that is not the point of this film. The real point of this film is to show the capability of analysis and depict the power of evidence. If an idea is backed up with enough evidence, that alone is enough to make a point, even if that point is not necessarily true. I personally do not believe that Stanley Kubrick directed the Apollo 11 mission, although I do think that this film brought forward evidence which still can be entertained. I don't think Kubrick necessarily thought about his film being watched backwards when he filmed it although this documentary displays that if it is to be played backwards, meaning can be discovered. This is what I thought Room 237 sought to achieve.
