Alternative Math

People here are reviewing as if they're on the board of the Motion Picture Academy. This is a short, quick film about different points of view and the extremes some will go. The ending is funny without over thinking. The acting is meant to be satirical. Made me laugh. Sometimes that's good enough.

I only discovered this little gem in June 2021. Had I discovered it in 2017, the past four years might have been a little easier. Don't let it drive you away early in frustration - that's just to make the payoff at the very end all the sweeter.

My review is the review of a teacher. who discovers "Alternative Math" as a brilliant masterpiece. sure, for the performance of Allyn Carrell. but especialy, for the smart way to present the essence of political correctness, dictatorship of studedents and parents, relativism as essence of social happiness. a great film. for the precise exploration, in absurde manner, at the first sigh, of a real menace against school. that did this short film a must see. as warning. as parable. and as recipe of resistence against few "sweet" demons.

This movie is just about post-truth as stated in its summary. It's not about teachers, parenting or political correctness. There is an objective fact and there are people who say that it is subjective. And since that fact is so simple and so well known when people say there can be different opinions about it, it becomes so fun to watch yet still makes you think.

Masterpiece. So glad nobody sued them for hurting feelings of any kind of....any person.
