Believe

As indie mocumentaries go (meaning anything not done by Christopher Guest) this is actually pretty decent. I think pretty much the entire planet can relate to this film. Who hasn't been hit up for one of these businesses?

The film has it's flaws but not many. It's obvious these guys did their homework before they made this movie because it's exactly what these MLMers are like! The movie flows and culminates nicely and it has a decent soundtrack. I think what stands out the most about this movie, besides its accuracy, is the acting. Wow! There's not really a bad one in the bunch.

If you've ever been in an MLM or wonder what the people are like then this movie is for you.

I think I finally found a way to get revenge on those people who have hit me up for their MLM pyramid scheme... buy them a copy of the movie and give it to them as a "gift". :)

Way to go!

I had the pleasure of viewing this movie at a film festival (FYI - it won the Peoples Choice Award). If you love mocumentaries and have been bothered as many times as I have with the variety of scams that masquerade as (MLM) business opportunities, this is the movie for you.

Very light hearted look into the world of Multi-Level-Marketing, following a group of people (very interesting characters) and their experience with Believe Industries. They threw in several interviews with real people (I Believe they are real anyway) that added some very humorous and interesting content. This movie is very unique, I can honestly say I have never viewed another flick that has approached/covered this very funny topic. I will be adding this movie to my DVD collection.

Very funny movie. This movie will make both the MLMer and the non-MLMer laugh out loud. Everyone has been or knows someone who has participated in an MLM venture, and this movie really plays on recognizable traits of MLM people, their actions and styles. The movie plays both sides very well, including those that are against the MLM industry. The actors and Actresses play their parts very well, and are very convincing. The photography and sound was very well done. Every one needs to see this movie. It will become a classic. If you have the chance to see it, I recommend it. This movie is Napolean Dynamite worthy! I would give it two thumbs up, and 4 stars.

I found myself laughing out loud much more than in viewing any other movie in a long time. There are lots of very clever, unique and hilarious scenes, dialog and acting woven throughout the story. Also, a great mix of street interviews of actual people in documentary fashion integrated with the plot of the movie.

If you liked other "mocumentaries" like Best of Show, Waiting for Guffman, Spinal Tap, etc., then you will love this movie.

The quality of the movie production was great, from the acting, the creative, the musical score, etc.

Highly recommended!!!

This movie does for the MLM industry what Office Space did for corporate America, Spinal Tap did for rock and roll, Zoolander did for modeling, and Napoleon Dynamite did for High School nerds - it exposes the irony, hypocrisy and (in)sincerity involved in direct sales. Some people involved in direct sales will recognize themselves and others in this movie but disagree with the content and how it is presented. Others will see the "business" as depicted in this film and agree with what they see.

There is so much subtle humor in this film that it requires multiple viewings for a thorough appreciation. I found myself laughing so much I missed the next line. If you know anyone involved in one of these businesses you will see them represented in this movie.

If you are looking for light-hearted comedy, humor that builds and funny lines you will remember and use everyday - this is the film. This is an enjoyable and entertaining movie.

It is so funny . . . because it is so true.
