I just finished watching this so very real movie. It is not fluff. This is a movie for all of us. The message is there for all of us. I love the last... part when professor is telling the complaciant student , the decsions we make now can't be altered later and define who we become. I cried, I got angry and I felt gratitude that someone is willing to say it like it is. Thank you Mr Redford. Full Review
I just saw the movie today and I thought it was really good. Also it would be a good movie that you can learn from.
That way viewers would be lined up with this left-leaning work of liberal propoganda... Rate this movie zero stars....
the only reason it got such bad reviews in the papers was because of the hard hits the media took in this film
I thought that the youth of this country was apathetic but after reading most of these reviews it's clear it is learned behavior. It is not that the... boomers all turn into yuppies. I now think they were yuppies pretending to be part of the idealistic generation. Now liberal is a dirty word when it used to be a something to be proud of. Hopefully the youth of this country will see this movie wake up and out do the sell out generation. Full Review

This is responsive, engaged filmmaking, the kind of movie they say Americans don't make.Full Review
The tiny scale and armchair talkiness mark the movie as a bit of a folly, an act of idealistic hubris in today's commercial marketplace, yet that's its (minor) fascination too.Full Review
There is a long stretch toward the beginning of the film when we're interested, under the delusion that it's going somewhere. When we begin to suspect it's going in circles, our interest flags, and at the end, while rousing music plays, I would have preferred the Peggy Lee version of "Is That All There Is?"Full Review
Though characters make some strong points, the film feels preachy and falls flat as entertainment.Full Review
Politicians, the media, educators, military commanders and a docile public all come under fire in a well-made movie that offers no answers but raises many important questions.Full Review
