propaganda
17 June 2011
This is pure propaganda and not the entertaining kind either. As in all propaganda the statements that are presented as fact are half truths. The fact that Nixon, Regan and G. W. Bush's administrations were responsible for the biggest budget deficits in history was not even mentioned. This is pure fascist propaganda brought to you by the same people that have been pushing religion and any other mid evil practices they can come up with. There is no question that a small amount of money and time was spent on this project. If the premise was really fair and unbalanced then it could have been a good piece instead it is heavily biased and while the bias is subtle at first it becomes evident as the film wears on.

undiscovered gem
24 August 2010
As a technician specializing in movie theaters now and then I am asked to screen a film. This is usually for either the filmmaker or production staff. Sometimes these films are just horrid but not always every now and then there is a gem. Last month I was asked to screen a 35mm print of Victor's Big Score, a film that apparently has remained unseen for two decades. I wasn't expecting it to hold my interest but it did. It is a funny movie, and while I agree with the other reviews that the old lady is great, the other players are good too, especially the actor who plays Victor. The animated scenes during the hurricane are hilarious, especially when a car/boat makes its way across a river during a raging storm. This is not a multi million dollar feature but it looked real good owing to the fact is was shot on film and never used a video inter negative. It looked so good I was surprised to find out it was shot on the super 16 format. Highly recommended.
