A couple months after this film's release, a friend sent a YouTube link to me. It was this film, attached to a message saying that it blew his mind. Now, I love that friend (obviously, because we're friends), but he could have done with a bit more skepticism at the time. The title was a warning that I would be in for baseless conspiracy theories, which were plentiful.
Dear God, were they ever plentiful. I have a list on Evernote (which I won't copy-paste due to length and a lack of timestamping) of each error, leap of logic, and baseless claim. The thing ended up being like fifty or sixty lines, ranging from "this guy is doing a surface-level examination of the numbers someone provided and drawing false conclusions that fall apart upon further examination" to "this guy doesn't do any sort of examination of his sources, because any source that I could find that made this claim was unreliable at best." Additionally, Jones has a tendency to make multiple leaps of logic, and then build upon those leaps of logic as if they were hard fact. If you're trying to make a claim, you want as much in the way of hard fact as possible, and you want to avoid these leaps of logic that are so commonly made.
The film is just littered with bad logic and shoddy claims. Please, do not watch this. It is a waste of your time, as is pretty much everything Alex Jones is involved with. He's a colossal idiot who repeatedly makes extravagant claims without any real evidence. He shouldn't even be acknowledged at this point.
