The Insurgents

The reason this movie gets canned is because it is poorly acted, forced and just boring. The fact that the movie explains certain political tensions in the country doesn't make it a good movie alone. The performance here was just not very good and I don't want to go into detail I just wanted to respond to that idiot who was wondering just how this movie could be looked at in a bad way.

It's obvious that guy wasn't caught up to the rest of us. Go learn something that wasn't in a movie or on TV!

A lot of the scenes are too long for these sub-par actors and it just makes the movie that much harder to watch. That is probably the only amazing thing about this movie since it's actually quite short at around ninety minutes.

I have no idea why there was such a vindictive review of this film, Technically it's really well done and I thought the writing was clever and interesting. The story flows well from the real-life hypocrisies of politics and shows how insurgency is born of it. The only reason I can see for giving this film a poor rating is if you disagree with its politics or are uneducated enough to view the plot in an unrealistic light. If you are fascinated by revolutions and insurgencies and you're brain can handle anti-American sentiment in a rational light then you will enjoy this film. It would make an EXCELLENT teaching aide for a contemporary US political science course.

Now that the depressed view has started to evaporate and we are winning in Iraq, this is just exposed for what it is. Bab leftest defeatism... I watched as much as I could stand and that was too much. Our founding fathers were not Iraqi insurgents or Bin Ladens's boy's. They were generally christens with some morals.

The depressed and boring dribble just dragged the mood along. The good value is never addressed, just a left-viewed propaganda, wrapped in neo-patriotism. A waste of time as reality is finally being let out, like the Yellowcake to Canada, and eventual Iran's involvement in the insurgency and development of a nuclear weapon.

Some day people will spend money on an honest view of reality like the real view of what people in the Mideast are used as. Pawns for corrupt dictators and religious tyrants.

This movie is basically honest about how people felt through the years of 2005-2008 (before Obama) just because "we are winning" the war in Iraq now does not mean that this movie should be thrown out as purely leftist propaganda. For lovers of conspiracy theories this movie is a treat, it shows valid points while exaggerating others but this is a movie after all. The characters are developed well while they remain simplistic, the twists in the movies are great and the way that the movie somewhat tricks you into a story of revolution and then hits you with the twists is wonderful.

I would recommend this movie to anyone especially to future generations who would like to know how half of the nation felt during the years of the prolonged Iraqi war.

I really wanted to like this movie. There was some really good pints made in it about how our government has hijacked our freedoms and how violence is the only way to wake up the people.

Of course, we also had to listen to some dopey conspiracy theory nonsense about 9/11, too. But, that's the price you pay listening to insurgents The pace was incredibly slow, and the only welcome distraction during all the talking was topless Ukrainian Juliette Marquis. I imagine she is off to be tortured in Uzbekistan about now.

The ending really sucked big time. Can't tell you without spoiling it, but it's not worth waiting for.
