” Bunker-busting TV… Arthouse filmmaking that doesn’t sacrifice rigour for the spectacular… The film rips along… “ ” An explosive documentary… A meticulous investigation that produces a scathing portrait of the US president and his entourage…” ” A stunning, incisive documentary… This film has all the ingredients of the greatest crime movies…” “A relentless indictment, gripping from beginning to end…” ” A startling 90′ documentary that breaks down the “Bush system” and reveals the dark side of the president of the world’s only superpower.” “A searing indictment of Bush… We heartily recommend this merciless documentary… “ “A pitiless exploration of the heart of a rotten system… This documentary performs a public service…” “A documentary that hits a nerve… A painstaking investigation that reveals the secrets of the Bush clan and strips the President bare… An implacable demonstration…” “A documentary packed with astonishing information on the unnerving dissipation of the Bush war machine… Strong television…” “A denunciation that is as compelling as it is damning. Exemplary!” “A damning investigation into a world of secrets, cynicism and corruption.” “A documentary that takes the breath away, sketching a pitiless portrait of the American administration.” “An exceptional documentary.” “Damning, dispassionate analysis…” ” A stunning, incisive documentary… Even more so than Michael Moore’s!” ” A sharp, insightful style… A fascinating investigation…” “Terrifying! A remarkable and timely reality check.” “A portrait that sends shivers down the spine… We won’t be able to claim we didn’t know.” “A remarkable investigation.” ” An edifying and terrifying documentary. “ “A breathtaking film. A detailed, comprehensive denunciation that leaves you gutted.” “A compelling demonstration…” “Everything is said and examined without concession and without demagoguery. Forceful and unrelenting.” “A remarkable piece of investigative journalism. Unnerving but essential viewing.” “Fearsomely efficient… Watching the film, it’s hard to believe your eyes! “ “A remarkable investigation… The Bush dynasty under the harshest of spotlights.” ” Pragmatic, rigorous…” “Superbly constructed… Less provocative and more informative than Moore’s.” “Indispensable viewing! Give it the Palme d’Or!” “A mine of extraordinary information…” “The Bush mafia… Fascinating and compelling… At the other end of the spectrum from Farenheit 9/11.” “This “autopsy” of Bush’s 3-year-old presidency leads to depressing conclusions.” ” Powerful, perfectly structured arguments based on penetrating evidence.” “French TV’s top-of-the-range version of Michael Moore.” ” If Michael Moore deserves the Palme d’Or, William Karel deserves three of them!”
