    Memories

    Due to the systematic tainting of the media, I doubt the accuracy of the details that are provided are correct let alone how they are presented. It was fascinating to relive what happened that election cycle as it was quite bizarre. Regardless, Americans are all grateful Al Gore did not become our president.

    Entertaining but openly bias

    I would have preferred to see non bias documentary as that what makes a true Documentary. It's similar to a Dinesh D'Souza Documentary as it has a lot of facts but presented in a bias manner. The film was still entertaining and brought back a lot of memories of that crazy year..

    Gore lost Florida and all the non-partisan studies how it. Each time the votes were counted the Republciana lead increased

    So Al gore didn't care about the constitution or the will of the people. he and his minions spent millions trying to subvert the actual results. Can you imagine if Trump spends as much money on court cases to fight the results, what the Democrats will say? If he does what Gore did, they will accuse him of subverting the election

    "537 Votes" tells it like it was

    This was one of Fidel's biggest worldwide victories. The War for Elian Gonzalez was heard throughout the world. La Familia Cubana de Miami and Cubans in general came out looking like "dirt". Many Cuban Democrats didn't vote for Gore as payback for the Democrats having "taken" Elian back to Cuba with his father (voto de castigo). That of course, contributed to Bush winning, with consequences like the war in Iraq and you know the rest. Excellent documentary.

    An incisive documentary

    "537 Votes" is an incisive documentary, vividly capturing the anarchy and rows that greeted the election in 2000 for the presidential post in the United States. Briskly helmed by director Billy Corben, this movie fuses archival footage with interviews and an intriguing narrative to give flesh to the political machinations and media frenzy that characterized the Florida recount. Razor-sharp editing, alongside pointed commentary, really helps transform it from a historical narration of events into the thrilling investigation of the tenuousness and strong interplay between politics, power, and media. Subtle humor, used by Corben, does much to lighten what could turn into an entertaining but intrinsically serious subject in "537 Votes.".
