Oh Canada Movie

[maple_leafs182]

This is a documentary of a youth group going around to different politicians asking them the question, where does money comes from and asking how the banking system works.

Some people they interview are Jack Layton, Paul Martin and Elizabeth May.

I think it is a very good watch.

It's about 2 hours long.

If you don't really understand the banking system or the monetary system I recommend watching this movie.

Yeah, spending 1:45 of your 1:53 promo doing a cartoon of Stephen Harper... that's a great way to convince people that this is going to be an informative and thoughtful film.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

That is just the intro.

[kimmy]

If that's how they wish to introduce their film, they've made a terribly poor decision. They've type-cast themselves and turned away a lot of potential viewers who just can't be bothered to waste time watching what has the appearance of being yet more left-wing shrieking hysteria.

And I'm thinking of giving it a pass based only on Kimmy's thumbs-down.

I had exactly the same reaction as Kimmy.

Based on the OP, this seemed an interesting concept. The trailer however wrecked it.

Had I only read Kimmy first, I would still have just under 2 minutes of my life...

And I'm thinking of giving it a pass based only on Kimmy's thumbs-down.

I think that would be wise. I completely agree with her assessment.

The documentary actually starts our making Paul Martin look like an idiot, IMO. Guess it must just be anti-government?

[maple_leafs182]

Its not the trailer, its the Intro. It is just some kids going around to different politicians asking them questions about the monetary and banking system.

It isn't anti government.

Here is the second part.
