Rotten Tomatoes gives it a "0%" rating from critics. They also give very low ratings to movies life "Facing the Giants". So this type of rating was actually encouraging. The Left must really dislike it (usually they at least give 10% to 15% to make it seem somewhat fair, but they couldn't even do that this time.
WE SAW THE MOVIE LAST NIGHT. 11 PEOPLE IN THE THEATER. I THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE MORE. OVERALL IT WAS WELL DONE. THE EXPLANATION OF THE NAZIS ACTUALLY BEING LEFT WING AND THE LEFT TURNING IT AROUND TO MAKE THEM ON THE RIGHT WAS EXCELLENT. I ALSO LIKED THE WAY HE WENT AFTER THE ALT RIGHT GUY AND MADE HIM ADMIT WHAT HE REALLY IS. A LEFTY. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF LEFTIES WENT TO SEE IT WITH AN OPEN MIND BUT THAT WON’T HAPPEN.
If you send in a BIG donation they will come mow your lawn. Feel free to try it.
Have you seen DSouza in debates? He’s fascinating to watch.
I saw it last night with my son who is in his twenties. We saw it Framingham Ma, Surprised to see the theatre 2/3 full. We live in Massachusetts after all.
I enjoyed the film equally to Hillary’s America. Great at showing all the big lies coming from the left and how they continue through time to search out classes of people to enslave without them knowing. Showed the mutual affection between Hitler, Mussolini and the progressives. Did not know about the young woman in Berlin executed for distributing anti-Hitler leaflets,
My son thought it should have shown the connection to the deep state and how they control both parties. Maybe his next film...
8 out of 10
It’s not a great Film, with a capital F, and it’s not meant to be. It’s an instructional film. So naturally Rotten Tomatoes would not be rating it well. Plus lots of lefties skew the results.
Richard Spencer: He comes off as exactly what he is, an identitarian, I think he said, and his philosophy is that physical-identity groups are the correct organization of society. He thinks it’s the thing that people will fight for.
It looks at first like a kind of postage-stamp-quilt version of nationalism, but it’s completely wrong, because it is based on physical identity, which includes racial identity, instead of identity based on an idea: freedom for the conquered nations of Africa and for India, for example. And for us, identity based on the founders’ IDEAS. Remember them, Richard? Something that everyone on the planet can share.
But doesnt the beer sort of disintegrate the KitKat wafer in the mouth? And take away the subtle milk chocolate flavor?
I watched him debate on a panel with Alynisky’s son and another idiot.....they simply could not keep up with him.
Saw it in Marin Country with 40 or so other people. Thought it was quite powerful. Some overlap with Hillary’s America. Could have done without the solo singing performance of Dinesh’s wife and the Battle Hymn by that particular chorus (I’ve heard better). Dinesh’s daughter did a good job playing Sophie Scholl, the German White Rose martyr. There was applause at the movie’s end and then everyone sat through the credits and applauded again! 4.5 out of 5 stars.
No, I have not but I would love to watch him in action. Do you know of any links to a good debate?

The movie did 2.3 million in 1,000 theatres for the weekend. I saw zero TV marketing for the film. I saw a lot of marketing back in the day for his film Odunga’s America.
The 2.3 million figure is not too bad for a political documentary. It is the lowest opening of his documentaries, but will likely gross about 12 million overall, based on his past films.
How much did it cost him to make the film? Hard to say. The acting cost almost nothing, with quite a bit “in the family” his wife and daughter play bit parts.
Obama’s America cost 2.5 million to produce. It ended up bringing in 33 million at the box office.
Death of a Nation shows a different strategy on Dinesh D’Sousa’s part. We will see how it works out.

Went to see it today, really good at drawing parallels with history and illustrating that Nazis and Antifa thugs are leftists. Also raises the of issue of how countries die when they lose their foundations and way. Go see it. There were only about 6 people there, but it was the first showing of the day (11:05am).
Oh, wow, I cant wait to watch these. Thanks!
I enjoy watching debates to observe those giving facts as opposed to those using tactics etc. Gets interesting along the way.
