Hi Everyone,
I had the pleasure of viewing this documentary the other night. I had wanted to rent this for along time, yet never really got around to it.
I feel this documentary was extremely well done from start to finish. I would say it ranks high on my list of documentaries I have watched. There were some parts that were enlightening, yet stunning and left my jaw on the floor. It is interesting to see what a little trip through American history can reveal.
I give this 10/10 and highly recommend it.
I rented it from Rogers.

| I just saw this tonight! Decent documentry, really good imagery, nice wide spread of people. It's not so much about any one war, but the American mentaly of war. See it :thumbup: |

I watched this too after reading your review, thanks for recommending Like it was said above, it had awesome imagery too and was really well put together.
Eisenhower's final address was pretty shocking, I had no idea about it.
I just have to mention this though, they mention Iraq has the 2nd most proven oil reserves. Canada is #2 in the world, only beaten by Saudi . This was published in early 2004. |

| I watched this months ago. I also give it 10/10. Unlike Michael Moore, I find it to be largely full of facts instead of stupidity ("will you sign up you son to go to Iraq?"). |

Makes you wonder, the Military-Industrial complex has us by the balls. It's too late bitches. Although it's good that the US gov't stopped a merger between Lockheed-Martin and Northrop Grumman that would have secured 25% of the US Department of Defense spenditures(which is about 500 000 000 000 annually)! Not to mention Halliburton and their bullshit.

| Saw it last night. Very good film, I'd say excellent and would give it 10/10. Extremely disturbing, recently I'm seeing too many documentaries that are disturbing like this one... |
