No End In Sight
The trailer for the latest mainstream documentary about the US fiasco in Iraq . . .
The fact that they're selling it is enough to turn me off. But, James Bamford appears in it. So, it may be worth reviewing.
Nevertheless, the mainstream media reviews pimping it are enough to make you puke.
It's bad enough that the corporate vampires in the defense industry have literally made a killing off of this war - now, the media wants in on it too.
"PREPARE TO BE RIVETED. NO END IN SIGHT IS WITHOUT QUESTION THE MOST IMPORTANT MOVIE YOU ARE LIKELY TO SEE THIS YEAR." [who needs to watch the movie when it's happening LIVE?] - Richard Schickel,Time
"THIS POWERHOUSE OF A MOVIE SHOULD BE REQUIRED VIEWING FOR EVERY MEMBER OF CONGRESS [as if it would matter!]. Lucid, without partisan rhetoric, and not to be missed." -David Ansen, Newsweek
"TWO VERY BIG THUMBS UP [congress's ass, for authorizing it]. IT IS ESSENTIAL VIEWING FOR ANY PATRIOT. I LOVE THIS FILM BECAUSE I LOVE MY COUNTRY" - Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
"AN ABSOLUTELY VITAL FILM. Exacting, enraging and revelatory. A clear, temperate and devastating account of high level arrogance and incompetence." - A.O. Scott, NY Times
"THE MOVIE IS A CLASSIC [?!!}. An extraordinary, elegant looking film." -David Denby, New Yorker
"A TRUE RARITY [you wish! Iran is next!]. A model of concision and clarity, it's probably the only one of the Iraq documentaries with the potential to reach across partisan lines." - Dennis Lim, LA Times
"****" - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
"**** IT MAY BE THE BEST FILM OF THE YEAR SO FAR [wait until Part II, Iran]. Devastating, factually air-tight and blessedly free of simplification." - Michael Phillips,Chicago Tribune
"**** STAGGERING! A DAMNING POLITICAL THRILLER." [it's not a thriller, moron! it's real life!] - Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
"PLEASE SEND EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO SEE IT [they paid me a lot to say this]. The film convicts the Bush Administration more clearly, specifically and forcefully than any previous documentary, and more wrenchingly than any book could do." -Stuart Klawans, The Nation
It looks like there truly is No End In Sight to the madness.
