As Better This World puts together the pieces of Brad Crowley and David McKay's stories, it appears they weren't always aware of what was going on around them. Sep 8, 2011 | Full Review…

...less a case of highwire drama than a punishing stumble into a looking-glass world where criminals are made so that they can be undone. Aug 12, 2011 | Rating: 3/5

Better This World conveys the helplessness and hopelessness of what it's like to get caught in a system that, the film argues, values appearance over facts. Jul 31, 2011 | Rating: 8.5/10 | Full Review…

My Dad would have liked this film as a caution against undertaking some of the protesting that I did in my youth. A bunch of idealistic kids are taken under the wing of a group leader and FBI informant and the question becomes whether or not they were led into performing actions that they wouldn't otherwise have taken. A very fascinating look at the interpretation of anti-terrorism legislation in the U.S.
