The War on Children

Bears the same resemblance to a proper documentary that sawdust does to a living tree.

It's essentially a series of talking points beaded together in a grim parody of coherence. Presumably this was why the makers effectively lied to the people that agreed to appear in it and resorted to heavily editing their interviews to get the soundbites they actually wanted. This, like the maker's approach, lends them a paper-thin appearance of objectivity whilst pushing a fairly toxic message.

All on behalf, of course, who imagine that everyone up to and including the postman is doing the same thing against them.

For fundies and Fox News addicts only.

I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Regardless of what political party you lean towards, EVERYONE needs to be a warrior for the safety, health, and protection of children. They are the future of our world, and the USA. This movie provided so much insight into a topic that I wanted to understand more. As a parent of a young girl, I want to be knowledgeable about everything my daughter may face in the future and I want to be prepared to educate her. The Starbuck family is absolutely amazing for producing this content and working hard to release it. I will be sharing this with other families and friends in the hopes that one day, this will be available on all streaming platforms.

Children need to be protected and values need to be realigned. God bless everyone.

This was... *sigh It was a fever nightmare made of Alt-right fear mongering satire, sadly I went into this, not knowing much about it other than the movie description given. Boy, was I surprised! I think my biggest disappointment came with the fact that the movie had plenty of opportunities to actually shine a light on the dangers children are facing online, elsewhere and what have you. But they chose to cater to a specific audience, knowing that it would resonate with them and them alone. Therefore, isolating itself from becoming what it actually could have been. Instead, it was riddled with dog whistles.

Very informative and eye opening to what our children are exposed to. Many parents may be aware of these issues but if you don't have kids it is vital you understand that you are needed to help protect the innocent. The documentary is very well produced and the pacing is amazing. Often documentaries lack fast enough pace to keep you interested but the Starbucks do a great job with content and presentation. Very compelling and heart wrenching at times.

Some will try to label this as "right wing", but they did try to interview people from both sides (they document this in the last third of the film) and most often were rejected by law makers and activist who claim to be "progressive" or on the left. Watch the whole thing before you decide.

Wow. Be ready to go through all of the emotions: anger, disbelief, despair, curiosity, guilt, hope, and contentment. Robby and Landon delivered with this film! Between the solid selection of experts, the youth focus group, the effective incorporation of imagery and videos, and the sequence of events, it all came together perfectly to bring home a POWERFUL message about the indoctrination of our children.

Whether you have your own children or not, this film is a MUST see for those who refuse to live under a rock. Whether you are Republican or Democrat, you will be equipped with knowledge that will empower you to decide on how you view and address this crisis that continues to impact our society.
