08/26/2019 Liberal leftist propaganda film. See more 11/27/2017 A must for all Americans to watch. See more 06/24/2017 Our only alternative to living in a society where everybody is armed to defend themselves from everybody being armed is universally global mutual & total disarmament. The guns themselves is in deed an issue & in too many cases the only issue as to why there is any instance of needless death & destruction. Any society not constantly laying down their arms is constantly picking them up. Let us choose wisely to loose our arms & not our lives. See more 03/18/2017 An overwhelming one sided look at gun violence. Set to villify the NRA and gun companies that employ hundreds of thousands of people of the USA. In the previous eight years the media has always brought news of gun violence because the news media in general much like whoever put this film together is biased. There are a lot of facts and numbers thrown out but many are hollow or misleading. Gun safety and locks around children was probably the most important point put forward. Pretty much everything else was window dressing saying, "Guns are bad." While the events they highlight are unfortunate the rest is just liberal propaganda.

See more 08/25/2016 Like all good causes there's the inevitable step overboard that dilutes the message. This movie is 75% that step, the other 25% reasonable discourse. Most of that 25% is spent on irrelevancies in victims' personal lives. The problem with the movie is, it's a mix between a drama and a documentary. It could've been one or the other and the message would've been better conveyed, though the random statistics appearing in trendy font throughout the movie confuses the moments with the drama, and vice versa. The combination gives the impression the creators were trying too hard and it shows with the rushed stats having to be tacked on to the random stories. The stats aren't even explained, no logistics or correlational studies, no nothing that can substantiate the WHY the statistics are important. The stats shown are also primarily about the income of big gun sellers, the NRA, and NRA members, which aren't at all relevant to how people die because of guns. It gives the impression that the creators are wanting to trick audience members into thinking that they are all conspiring with each other by paying each other and supporting each other, as if that's a bad thing. The NRA in general is painted as this evil organization, and yet there was literally no reason why they were bad except that the movie said they were so then they must be bad. Anyway, the primary legislation that this movie didn't and should've focused on are background checks and purchasing limits. See more Read all reviews
