Review of Dinesh D’Souza’s 2016
The Freehold ^ | August 24, 2012 | Jonathan David Baird

Posted on 08/24/2012 3:20:58 PM PDT by EveningStar

... I got out of work at lunch today and I thought I would just pop into the movie theater and watch the movie. The movie was at 12:20. I thought getting there right at noon would not matter. No one is going to be at some political film in the middle of the day. I was wrong. So wrong that I ended up sitting in one of the handicapped seats because the movie was already full when I arrived. I go to the movies almost every Friday after work. I have never been in a packed theater at noon. I went to The Avengers at noon and it wasn’t packed. What is going on? ...

Saw it this afternoon, theater 2/3rds full, mostly senior citizens.

I recommend to everyone to take a friend, one who listens to NPR or gets their news from the morning network shows or late night comedians.

It is powerfully done, and focuses on Obama’s worldview of anti-colonialism; meaning: America has no right to be so prosperous - so it is his job to shrink us to our rightful size of just one-among-many nations on this planet.

I am sure that people who do not listen to conservative talk radio or watch the ‘radicalrightwing’ Fox news channel will be shocked by the information conveyed by this film.

Great news. I am going on Sunday morning at 9:30. Getting there at 9am like I planned may be too optimistic on my part!

That is going to be a problem in many locations this weekend...bank on it.

They have actually added showings at my local theater here in north Florida! I haven’t seen it because seeing Obama in any capacity makes me sick to my stomach, but the book is great and everybody I know who’s seen ithe movie has liked it a lot.

Thanks for your capsule review, EveningStar.

This film is at lest in part based on Dinesh D'Souza's book on Obama from several years ago.

I once had the privilege to chat with D'Souza for a few minutes, and he seemed like a nice fellow. I could never have a imagined him as a film director or an actor (sort of), but here he is.

I am thinking that the senior citizen population (you know, those people that Republicans are accused of hating and wanting to feed dogfood to) is wising up to Obama. It will be interesting to see how many are not suckered in to the standard Democrat lies.

We were at the first showing, one of two theaters in Saginaw, MI. There were less than 20 people, all senior citizens except for me and my teenage son. But this was 11:30 in the morning on a work day.....

I need it on DVD....I'd buy probably up to 50 copies...

I can't get the people I want to see it to the movie.

But I can give them a DVD to watch before Nov 6th.

Especially the Rabbi I know, I am sure he won't let me show it after his services, but copies to individual members, that I can make happen...

It should be required viewing for high school seniors and college students....; )

After you watch it you will understand why Obama hates the concept of America and wants to bring it to it’s knees. After you watch you will have no doubt as to what his intentions are.

Wife and I went today in Fort Worth. Hall was about half full but it was the early show. Sounds like this movie is unsettling the libs.
