Of course, Al Gore got hosed in Florida. Absolutely more voters intended to vote for Al Gore than George Bush. But Al Gore had a lot a voters too challenged to get it right and after the votes were counted and recounted he came up a tad short.

I went into this movie hoping to learn something I already didn't know. No such luck. It was obvious the movie was slanted or bias to omit facts that favored George Bush.

For example, all of the counties with the problems were Democratic controlled counties and they ran the voting process. They were responsible.

For example, the absent overseas votes, the movie only mentioned the late post marked votes, but the much larger problem were the thousands of envelopes with no post mark. Why should these Bush favored votes all be thrown out because the Armed Forces does a sloppy job of post marking.

For example, the Florida Supreme court was rewriting election laws to aid Al Gore. The law sets a specific deadline date in compliance with the electoral college deadlines and to avoid the chaos that ensured. For example, the new services joined together to count every votes and they reported that George Bush won more votes, but the movie flipped that conclusion to suit their liberal agenda.

They may fool impressionable minds, but by disregarding both sides of the story, this documentary is false. All they had to do is try to be more fair and balanced, because Al Gore did get hosed.

Add my name to the list who found Matrix Reloaded totally boring. The only other movie I saw this summer was Tomb Raider 2. That film had beautiful scenery and Ms. Jolie. What did Matrix Reloaded have? Boring fight scenes that went on and on with the same Mr. Smith. Dumb dialogue that droned on and on. I think the core audience for this franchise has lost a large segment of viewers with this boring sequel and a whole lot work (editing, re-shooting and marketing) needs to be done for Part 3. I expect a 50 percent drop in business.

I would have quit on this film early if I hadn't paid my $2 and the tape was copy protected, so watching later was not an option. While the British accents weren't hard to understand, a lot people places and things were foreign to me. Also, some conversations got very quiet, I should have tried close caption. However, in video tape #2 the plot got moving and I am surprised that no one complained that things went a little overboard. Companies may cook the books for personal gain, but investment operations are far too open.

This film was interesting and remarkable, but at 5 hours, whoa. Skip video tape #1. It is hard to get the image of 32,000 large nuclear bombs located around the world, to worry too much about a stockpile of weapons grade materials in Scotland.
