An action-packed slog

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The woman who was so offended because little children saw the pictures. Yet, it was fine with her for attacking those same little kid's father- literally beating on him. Then, there's the students who complained about the graphic photos on their college campus. The way I see it is, those pictures are the voice of the aborted babies. I'm not religious, not a Republican but I am a person who is greatful that my mother didn't abort me.Z3

The woman at the end made an excellent remark "whos going to take care of these children" the same thing being said the same thing being pictured, there not getting it...without Free Will there is No god...its like they keep doing the same thing over and over expecting different (crazy).An idea that i guarantee would work, Work on what would happen to these unwanted children when they are born, we have so many already, work on the answer to the unwanted children, im sure god is asking., work at a different angle instead of, good lord this same old thing. The church should also be something you can trust and that is not true anymore. How dare the preacher hit back, this woman, He appeared soo small in many eyes and lost support for such., while holding a child. This man called her something terrible and no she should not have slapped him, but he (a man?) did not handle that right, These supporters of pro life truly need to go about it at a different angle...Change peoples views with a different angle.!!

This film was amazing. More than halfway through, I grabbed the DVD box and tried to figure out who was 'backing' the film. I really couldn't figure out if this movie was trying to portray segments of the pro-life movement negatively or positively. The film is segments of the pro-life movement engaging in activism, interplayed with simple facts on a black screen with white lettering. A few of these facts revealed a glimpse of the filmmakers' bias, but that was the extent of it.This film was difficult to watch, as it highlighted the argument of the use of graphic images in the abortion debate. I enjoyed the pro-choicers that the film makers decided to include in some of the sidewalk conversations sparked by the images displayed by the pro-lifers. They were confrontational, but didn't portray the pro-choice individuals as stupid or fanatical. The same with the pro-life folks in the film. If they seem stupid or fanatical, it's either because you perceive them as such, or they really are. One of the last scenes in the movie (a confrontation with a pro-choicer) was amazing in that it showed the hypocritical Christianity of some pro-lifers. This was a thread throughout the film, including a Catholic priest who offered a cash reward to the apprehension of pro-lifers who engage in bombing or shootings. If you're going to be pro-life, he says, you have to be pro-life all the way.An extra feature on the DVD is a post-interview with those interviewed on how they felt they were portrayed in the film. Almost everyone felt they were represented without bias, with the exception of one woman who felt that some members of the pro-life movement came off as caricatures. What an extraordinary attempt by the film makers to ensure their objectivity. I do like Michael Moore, but I wonder if his films would stand the same test.

This is not a Michael Moore documentary. The information presented in this film is NOT spoon fed to you, and it cannot be viewed with the expectation of being easy to watch. This film forces you to reconsider everything you know about abortion. This film requires you to hear all, see all, and form your own opinion after the credits roll. While the views of the filmmakers are probably more "pro-choice" than "pro-life", much more attention is paid to the pro-life side of the issue. Keep in mind that this is hardly ever used in an offensive or mocking way, but rather in a way that is respected, fair, and representative of the Pro-Life community. That is what makes the film so unique- it's ability to spend the majority of the film on the side of Pro-Life but still end up balancing out and forcing YOU, the audience, to make your own decisions. This film will move you. This film is essential for everyone to witness. It is unique in its power to make both pro-life and pro-choice activists question their beliefs. It is one of the most unbiased films I have ever had the honor to experience, and it should not be approached with any expectations. Allow the film to present to you everything it offers, which is an extensive range of opinions and facts, and be aware that it blurs the line between life and choice almost past the point of distinction. Life and choice are no longer so clear. You can no longer rely on the beliefs of your political affiliation to tell you what is humane and what is immoral. In this day and age of technology and the spread of information, independent opinions need to be formed. If you seek knowledge and information, watch this film. If you are looking for a film to breeze through, save it for another day. But come back to it and remember that it is beneficial both to people who consider themselves "Pro-Life" and "Pro-Choice". See for yourself and do what the documentary encourages- find your own knowledge and follow it both with passion and understanding.
