If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

If you're a Communist or Neo-Nazi this film is not for you.If you're an American wondering why generational poverty is so pervasive in the American black community this film will shed some light on how we got here. It explores why so many American blacks continue to feel they are victims and why they remain unable to break out of the poverty brought upon them by the government programs designed to help them, and why there's nearly unanimous support of the Progressive people and programs which seem intended on destroying them.If you're looking to inform yourself or others about who really supported civil rights from the Civil War to the 1960s, there are also some good Historical notes and perspectives provided throughout.It was also nice to see proud, hopeful Americans willing to look beyond the troubles of the past towards a better tomorrow. It's bit slow in places and a bit flashy with unnecessary editing, but valuable for the facts offered and for the perspectives given, even if you don't agree with C.L. Bryant or others appearing.

Funded by Karl Rove's (Byrant's civil right hero) Freedom Works this movie proves that some AfroAmericans can be as political deluded as anyone else. This movie contains all the hyperbole, meme and stereotyping and distortions that Tea Partyers love and progressives shrug their shoulders at. To hear AfroAmericans defend and glorify slavery and accuse the civil rights movement as a slavery creator was distressing. Abortion, civil rights, democrats and welfare are the new slave masters according to the movie. This is the movie Neocon/Tea'ers love and will love because it has all the hyperbole and hand washing they desire: See I told ya it wasn't discriminatory practices, poor education and poverty holding down the negros p, it's themselves.

One of the most important movies of the last 50 years. Thank You Rev C.L.Bryant and all involved - for this amazing documentary. Your bravery and leadership is so needed and so very important. I had tears in my eyes through the whole thing. The truth is powerful. I am so inspired by the leaders who appear in this documentary. Praise the Lord for those who find a way to break away from whatever darkness pervades the conditions of their birth and seek the light. Peer pressure is such a powerful thing, it takes a special mind to see beyond it. Those who condemn this movie are trapped in a spiral and don't realize they are being pulled down. Freedom is not just something we enjoy by the grace and wisdom of our Founding Fathers, it is a state of mind. Thank You again! I am blown away.

If the two reviews above mine are written by real people, they are being paid by the production company to give this turkey a good review.Starring Glenn Beck, Andrew Breitbart, Allen West, Herman Cain, and Rev. C.L. Bryant - you've got to be kidding me! Since its release in January 2012, it has grossed a whopping $48,000! And Freedomworks has $500K a month, for six months, set aside to promote it! $3 million to promote a film that in one year has made less than $50,000? What do you think is going on here? Runaway Slave indeed. Runaway VOMIT is more like it.This is not a documentary. It's a propaganda piece, and not worth anyone's time, not even moronic Glenn Beck fans.
