Just saw it tonight. I was hopeful that it would be good, but I wasn't sure if a 100 minute movie/documentary with Matt Walsh would be too much. I'm happy to report that it was really good. It was an interesting combination of being really funny at times while also pointing out the grift of the race hustlers and the DEI pushers. Now if they could just get a critics score on Rotten Tomatoes (99% for viewers).

Definitely interested in seeing this, but may wait till I can watch at home.

The best movies are always the ones with really good audience scores and bad critic scores. I enjoy them better than the ones where they score high on both scales.

Agreed... that's why I saw it in a theater.

I've heard good things about this movie

But supposedly many of the stars in the film have disabled their Twitter accounts. What's up with that? I figured movie stars like the publicity of a good film

It's difficult for racists to defend their racism.

Embarrassment and cowardice. If they truly believed what they say they believe, they'd double down on it, loudly.

I saw it and here is the hilarious bit

Walsh just lets them talk. He only got particularly heavy handed with Robin d'Angelo with the reparations bit. He asks questions that anyone trying to wrap their head around the double standards would ask. The Race2Dinner bit is just watching these two women talk **** on America while he is serving them food in the background and only towards the end does he start speaking up

The Moana Problem was a perfect example of this. My daughter loves Moana, that means she is less racist. But I can't buy here the South Pacific costume because that is appropriation. But that means she will gravitate to the white princesses. Doesn't that just bring us back to racism?

Robin D'Angelo sounds fragile

His costume reminds me of the SNL Undercover Bosses skit with Kylo Ren.

10 years ago I never wouldve imagined something like this would be made, let alone be so damn relevant (and important). We've fallen a long long way...

On the positive side, 10 years ago no company could/would have made it. Now we have the Daily Wire that continues to gain relevance in the entertainment market.

So it's like Ali G, but with no irony?

need to get the film industry to go the way of journalism (ie: more independents). otherwise they will die the slow death that corporate media has been.

This would typically the kind of thing that starts stronger than it finishes. But in this case it was the opposite. His workshop got the biggest laughs

I will say this - don't go in expecting just a ton of laughs. The absolute absurdity of the DEI movement is on display throughout which is amusing and he absolutely hits the mark in letting these fools expose themselves, but it's not constant out loud laughs or anything. That said, as mentioned above, there were some decent laughs toward the end. Definitely recommend either way though

I honestly spent half the film just cringing

100 minutes sitting in theatre listening to idiots talk doesn't sound like fun

An interesting thread on mainstream critics not reviewing the film. There's eight more posts on the thread than what I posted here.

Walsh's slide deck at the end was absolutely hilarious. I wish I could get a copy of that.

It wasn't constant laugh out loud, but man, I laughed harder at times than I have in a long time at a movie.

I legitimately think Matt Walsh is one of the most courageous men alive right now. His willingness to take on the insanity of cultural leftism and willingly accept the hatred of millions of people is amazing. What a stud.

Can't imagine how many lefty's fantasize about his death. Hope he rolls strapped everywhere he goes bc it doesn't seem like he has a security team.

Courageous is right. Talented and smart.

I remember when they tried to embarrass him by releasing some of his ballroom dancing practices (which were surprisingly good) and he was like: so ****ing what?

Haha. Bigger man than me

Still no score from the critics... odd...
