I really don't know what to say. I am dumbfounded. Talk about an eye opener. Love to hear what you guys have to say.

Wow, usually the conspiracy movies cover one topic.. after watching that one it seemed to cover them all, and invent a few!
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

That's what I thought just by reading the website, I didn't even bother to watch.  :-\

While I'd say the message has some merit, I don't think that you could legitimately say this is anything beyond propaganda.  It makes critical claims -- some of which are nothing more than unverifiable theories -- without providing any evidence beyond a few testimonials and a few weak statistics here and there.  Listen to what it says, but take everything with a grain of salt.

Remember, an explanation can make sense without it being entirely true.  For me, all they did was lay out pieces that seem to fit.  It was lots of talk, not a lot of backing.

It was pretty much what I expected it to be.  I should have watched Tin Man on scifi instead. :P

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.
