I will be interested to hear the reports of freepers who see this movie. If Debbie Schussel is correct, and it shows that mistreatement by Americans "turned" this young man towards terrorism, then the film will be little more than a tool for recruiting more terrorists. Remember that blowing up oneself and innocents is seen as heroic by the average jihadist.

It sounds as if Debbie and Cuban saw 2 different films. It could be that Debbie did not see it, but was relying on advance word that turned out to be bogus (a similar thing happened with advance word on Disney's Alamo film of 2004. Joseph Farah, among others, described the film as revisionist, and anti-Texan/American, when it was no such thing.)

Or, perhaps the film Cuban produced got tweaked at the last minute by a director with an agenda, and maybe Cuban has not seen the final edited film, but maybe only saw some pre-release rushes? It'll be interesting to find out.

If it really shows what losers the terrorists are, and how they can be "the middle-eastern guy next door", then it could be an interesting and important movie.
