If this movie were a person, it would be the kind of person you'd avoid because you fear he might explode one day and you'd rather not be there when it happens.

The tone ranges from wounded to disgusted, but a movie positing this deep a rot in the system needs to be more measured and better made to take hold.

7.3/10

A back-stiffening doc that makes a persuasive case for the reform of family law court, and in particular a decoupling of money from issues regarding parental custody and visitation rights.

Documentary tackles the divorce industry with the same zeal as the lawyers it rebukes.

sad but unfortunately true, something many of us are unaware if we have been amicably divorced and no children, unfortunately i have seen the ramifications of this travesty in other's lives and had a hard time understanding it.. this should be outlawed and reformed.. children's (and parent's) lives are drastically affected by this money making misuse of family law..

Essential viewing for anyone interested in Family Law, Child Protection, and Family/Play Therapy. Dotes not include personality disorders (Axis II, Cluster B) as motives for conflictual behavior and blames the system, which is absolutely appropriate but isn't the whole story. Be sure to watch the YouTube interviews on DivorceCorp YouTube channel. If you're in Colorado and want to organize for change see boulderparentsupport.com

A shocking truth about the law system in USA. More particularly the divorce system where the judges are considered gods and are let to get away with everything. Watching this you'll ask yourself "is it possible for a person to be so cold hearted?"
