dustin d @RT12543299 11/08/2022 The Weather Underground is a retrospective on the '70s-era left-wing terrorist organization (that is the precursor to Antifa) depicting the seemingly normal, apparently well-meaning people who were in the group. The documentary presents a neutral viewpoint, but I would have liked more discussion on what motivated the terrorists and how they view their actions ~30 years later.

See more 11/11/2016 A really compelling documentary about the radical offshoot of the SDS responsible for a series of bombings of public buildings and for breaking Timothy Leary out of prison and smuggling him to Algiers. It's a fair assessment of both sides of the issue, interviewing former members of the group as well as the FBI agent who lead the task force that tracked their movements as well as more moderate members of the SDS like Todd Gitlin. Timely viewing since American society seems to be heading back towards a time where extreme political division creates groups like this. See more 07/17/2016 Fascinating story, amazing archival footage, but lacks a bit of depth and detail at times. See more 08/17/2013 Undeniably gripping documentary about domestic terrorists. See more 05/20/2013 Excellent documentary about the violent Radical Left of the early 1970s. You will likely find some of these people and their actions highly repellant, but it's well worth reviewing what they did and why they did it. See more Read all reviews
