    Please Watch!

    Everyone must watch this documentary and make their own decision!

    If you think your doctor has been poisoning you, this is your movie

    The premise is that people at the CDC, and ostensibly, the pharmaceutical companies and all doctors who administer vaccines, are all in on a giant conspiracy to kill you. But not just you. Since pharmaceutical company executives and their families, and doctors and their families, and politicians and their families, and the CDC and all its employees and their families, all get vaccines, apparently the conspiracy is one of mass-murder suicide. So, yeah. If that makes sense, enjoy, this one's for you.

    If however, you think "teaching the controversy" is bunk, and that it just might be the case that not all stories have two equal sides, and that everyone is not, in fact, out to kill everyone, then congratulations, you've earned the right to propagate and you should spread your genes so that those who believe the first paragraph above become extinct.

    This movie is ridiculous

    It is an outright lie that there is any link to autism and vaccines. To say otherwise is downright disrespectful to those with autism and only serves to ruin the progress made by vaccinations preventing horrible diseases in modern times. The "doctor" that has published the results of a link to autism is a fraud, a crook, and a terrible human being. He would be the laughing stock of the scientific world if his writings were not so incredibly dangerous. The claims that this movie makes about any cover up are also false, along with the notion that vaccines have not been tested. Vaccines for children are quite literally the most tested chemicals on the face of the earth with an astounding amount of evidence indicating very, very few complications while preventing some of the most vile and deadly diseases.

    No matter where you stand on the subject, it's a compelling must see.

    Vaxxed will leave something for everyone. It's a compelling and well executed documentary that is not, unlike many of it's predecessors, suffering from an identity crisis. You will walk away challenged, maybe compelled, but ultimately engaged in the debate one way or the other after watching this. Frankly, it's a good thing too. The conversation needs more involvement from people on both sides of the coin. Whether you embrace today's aggressive vaccination schedule as a necessary evil, or like a growing population are beginning to, big pharma overeach at the mercy of children's health, it is important that the conversation turn to one of data and research rather than emotion and antagonism. The Producers of Vaxxed dance a pretty fine line but manage to maintain data diversity and integrity for the most part. Yes, there's some dramatic music and dark soundbites to ratchet up the tension but what doc isn't taking a more threatrical line today. It's great cinema.

    Right at the heart of the doc is a fantastic protagonist/antagonist depending on your perspective. This flawed but brilliant character leaves a Faustian mosaic across the 90 minutes and is compelling viewing.

    Bobby DeNiro recently went on record as saying there is something there. And I found myself walking away agreeing with him. In the UK there isn't the violence in rhetoric that appears to mare the discussing in the US. We came to terms many years ago that when it comes to Pharma we're all guinea pigs - and that this applies to vaccines as much as it does Vioxx or any other problem drug. It seems that the US is a long way from this level of acceptance which is all the more reason to go watch Vaxxed and let the science do the talking for 90 minutes. And wherever you stand at the end of the movie at least you can say that was a worthwhile way to spend 90 minutes.

    Vaxxed From Cover-Up to Catastrophe: The film they didn't want you to see? No, the film that shouldn't have been made

    Documentaries are notoriously bias, often have agendas and are best watched with a comparable documentary from the opposite side of the argument. Some documentaries though are just plain ludicrous in their subject matter and this is one of them.

    Promoting a message like this is legitimately dangerous and simply should not have been allowed. The message is as rational and as educated as advising people that prayer is a better choice for ailments than actual medical care. There are people out there who will believe this nonsense and their children will suffer and by suffer I mean very likely die! I often question why people cling to conspiracy theories. My belief is a combination of paranoia and a desperate need for life to be that little bit more exciting than it actually is.

    Vaccines have saved countless lives, eradicated ailments and do not have any connection at all to autism.

    The earth isn't 6000yrs old, the LGBT community have no "Gay agenda", chemtrails aren't a thing, the planet isn't flat, Area 51 contains no alien spacecraft and evolution is proved. Pull your collective heads out of your collective rears and don't put your children at risk over this ridiculous hysteria.

    • Trivia
      When the film was announced for the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival, documentarian Penny Lane wrote a virally-circulated letter condemning its inclusion in the lineup. Although festival head Robert De Niro defended the film's inclusion in a statement on March 25, 2016 (as he and Grace Hightower have an autistic son), the film was pulled from the line-up the next day on Tribeca's Facebook page. However, the distributor, Cinema Libre Studio, managed to book the film into the Angelika Film Center, NYC, where VAXXED was not only shown for two weeks, from April 1 to April 15, instead of the previously planned single showing on the closing night of the Tribeca Film Festival, April 23, but where the eight o'clock showing was followed by a panel discussion with Andrew Wakefield, Brian Hooker, Del Bigtree, and Polly Tommey, an autism parent and founder of the magazine 'The Autism File'.
    • Quotes

      Del Matthew Bigtree: So I had sent you what William Thompson has said is the fraud of the CDC, all that data that was missing. Did you get a chance to really look it over?

      Rachael Ross: It's... uhm... it's really unbelievable, how blatantly the data were switched around. It made me question whether or not this organization that's been mandating how I practice medicine... well, if they're lying about this, and leaving data out of this particular study, *what else am I being lied to about?*
