Superpower

This is a documentary everybody needs to see. In a time where democracy is challenged, hope & courage emerges. It is bizarre how knowledge can be a deterrent to what is possible, all this time I have studied Vladimir Putin only to find out President Zelenskyy is the true story. This president has restored my hope in democracy, and it is significantly inspirational to see such unity, and strength on the frontlines of Ukraine. My support for this president and country has increased tenfold just by watching this film. Sean Penn is a true journalist, and as he quoted Ronald Reagan's "To be a good actor, you have to be able to be yourself on camera." An unwavering strength this actor holds. Sean Penn is an inspiration and I commend his ability to withstand the politics and offer strictly true human emotional responses to this brutal & unprecedented invasion. I am incredibly proud to be an American and represent the ideology of democracy, but to be Ukrainian right now means to fight for it. We must all refrain from wavering our support to the upmost important mission of our time, freedom. God bless America, and God bless Ukraine.

First of all, there are som reviews here that are negative that are just Russian propaganda at best. Its full lies and half truths promoting the Russian narrative. As for the movie its a 7 for the fact they were there and the footage they took, as a documentary its a 5-6. Most of all it lacks depth and analysis from politicians and experts from the west on the military and political side leading up to the war. Its a little to much look how great we are who made the movie and the focus of a real documentarian is the subject, not the creator. There are a lot of interviews with ordinary Ukranians and governmental ukrainians that saves the movie, but a stronger message could have been sent by showing and destroying the Russian lies and have them as a comparable, not in the least showing all the atrocities that Russian troops committed in places like Bucha.

I could not believe the number of 10/10 reviews of this mediocre docudrama. A rating that says everything about them and nothing about the movie being reviewed. The opportunity to show what Putin has wrought upon Ukraine was right their in front of Penn. Unfortunately he cannot think about others except as they relate to him and what he does. Penn is the "always dependable opportunistic ultra leftist demigod". How long did he stay in Kiev after the first day of the invation? Who is the focal point of this film? What was the goal of this production, and what was the alterior motive.

Shawn 's motives are not difficult to understand. They're the same as when he volunteered to be a "human shield" protecting Sadam Husain, or when he glorified Cesaer Chavez before his communist revolution put Venezuela (a country with the largest oil reserves of any country on earth) on the path to ruin. Likewise support Ortega and Castro. He is consistent.

We will never see such a courageous leader like Zelensky in a hundred more years to come! Love love what Penn has done in this film. Bless Ukraine for your fight. Democracy will prevail. I know Zelensky will lead Ukraine to victory. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has indeed been widely regarded as a hero by many, especially for his leadership and resilience during the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. His refusal to flee Kyiv and his efforts to rally his country and the world against the invasion won him admiration and support from people around the globe. Despite the challenges and the ongoing conflict, Zelensky's courage and determination have made him a symbol of resistance and unity for many Ukrainians and others worldwide.

No matter what is said about you, I am totally by your side. Don't let haters get you down. I know what I'm seeing in you. And Zelensky. Totally. This is your best achievement so far.

I loved this documentary with all my heart. I hope it will get picked up wider than Paramount+. Everyone should see it and be reminded of why we are helping Ukraine. Why it is important to us and the world. My favorite scene is in the apartment. The woman mentioned trying to save things that were emotionally valuable. Sean didn't say, "What can I do?" but "What can I carry out?" Right there, in the moment. One reason why I admire him.
