Really? That's interesting
....
What this line tells me is - The corruption and
unchecked ambition are "alleged" rather than conclusive and that this important
film is "anything but balanced" but viewers can draw their own conclusions...
and this says it all? Making a mountain out of a molehill is another way
to say it.
As a fascinating study of alleged corruption and unchecked ambition,
Bush's Brain is anything but
balanced, but it's an important film that invites viewers to
draw their own conclusions.
That says it
all.

Editorial
Reviews Amazon.com A late bloomer
among the rich harvest of political documentaries released in 2004, Bush's Brain is potently revealing yet
maddeningly pedestrian in its attack
on Karl Rove, the powerful presidential advisor nicknamed "Bush's
Brain" for serving in effect as co-president in the George W.
Bush administration. Slapped together
for the sake of an expedient pre-election release, the film
makes a convincing case (while
offering no tangible proof) that Rove conducts ruthlessly
effective Republican campaigns on the
belief that "the ends justify the means." Based on the
book by James C.
Moore and James Slater (both featured prominently in abundant talking-head
interviews), the film lacks the coherent structure that would've made it truly
effective, assumes considerable
foreknowledge on the part of the viewer, and regrettably
includes a tear-jerking, non sequitur digression about the grieving family of
a beloved Marine who was killed in Iraq. But the film's shattering allegations
and heartbreaking testimonies suggest, in no uncertain terms, that Rove is
pulling the Presidential strings, remaining virtually untouchable while
winning elections by any means necessary. As a fascinating study of alleged corruption and unchecked ambition,
Bush's Brain is anything but
balanced, but it's an important film that invites viewers to
draw their own conclusions. --Jeff
