I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
