So now we know: Christian films aren't bad in themselves, but propaganda films are.
+L Pace haha. That's what I was thinking!
Muslim movies seem to even worse than Christian movies so yes.
I like dystopian fiction, when it is done well. Here, you basically have Ayn Rand fan fiction being marketed to people who have very little understanding of the philosophy, but respond well to the conspiracy theory that the Federal government is out to get "freedom loving Americans". Separate from what I can say about Ayn Rand or the state of education in America, it is just incredible fascinating to see this union of wacky Ayn Rand anarchists and fire and brimstone, black helicopters are turning kids gay Christians.
Dang. That's a really good way of putting it.
True, prince of egypt is pretty great
That feeling when the review has better production values than the movie...
David West so every Time?
MY FREEDOM'S NOT DEAD IT'S SURELY ALIVE
lmfaoooooo
Me during every clip: What are these fonts. What are these fonts. *What are these fonts. W H A T A R E T H E S E F O N T S.*
Chipio Industries -- Dark Net News is in Hobo STD font...
Ive never seen fonts this bad in an actual movie. Not even fonts this bad in a middle school power point.
hahahahaha
SAME
My hs film production class had better effects than this rip
This looks like a Nickelodeon Sitcom.
MrTermanati Well, it does have Principal Franklin from iCarly in it.
Old Nick, or New Nick?
Maybe its the camera they're using, but the shots where they just slap a video onto a blank screen (9:35) look like they're from icarly, but worse.
It's not the camera, it's their incompetence. I believe the film was mostly shot using a Panasonic AF100. It's the same camera that was used to shoot the fantastic "The Raid." It's little brother-the Panasonic GH2-has been used by all kinds of indie filmmakers to great effect. Shane Caruth shot "Upstream Color" quite beautifully on a GH2.
Trump will always have the best iguanas so fuck you and the moon you own! Nazis eating lollipops!
When I was in high school, I wrote a piece of fiction that was about, basically, libertarians resisting an oppressive dictatorship. The dialogue was just as stilted and the plot lines just as implausible as in this movie.
Omg... was the director dumpster- diving about 20 years ago, and found my old story?!
It's actually based on a novel the director himself wrote back in like the 70s, lol.
I wrote something similar to this in school sbout an alternate 1930's ireland that became fascist
In school I wrote a thriller about librarians. They shot guns and read books.
(21:52) She became. A. CCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSST-
Oh wait, this is the wrong kind of movie...
0utta S1TE Ehhhh.... doesn't have the same ring to it.
1. this was worse than a Christian movie
2. the colour palette of this film made me feel weird
BoBeaneh exactly, The color grading feels like a Kendrick brothers film.
This whole movie made me feel weird.
Thomas Dunn The Kendrick movies look like Made-for-TV movies. This movie looks like it was shot with an iPod.
This movie has got to be the Battlefield Earth for Libertarians.
reminds me of the libertarian "Birdemic" or "The room"......passion projects that went terribly wrong LOL
Oh hai Agorists let's make some Anarchy huuuhhhhh
Thanks, Kevin. Now I'm up at nearly midnight trying to convert the budget of Monty Python and the Holy Grail from 1975 British pounds to 1975 U.S. dollars, then trying to convert that to 2014 U.S. dollars.
+Kendyll Hawkins yes! Please share your results with the class!
Their budget was about 229,575 GBP. This converts to about 505,000 USD in the beginning of 1975. That's about 2,3 million dollars, nowadays. Some "impressive" inflation right there.
Oh my gosh, I thought the "freedom''s not dead" thing was something Kevin came up with 😂
They wasted $800,000
This entire review is the perfect summary of the modern Libertarian party: a hodgepodge of people who form their moral and economic opinions based on rational thought and questioning the status quo, and edge-lords who get a sense of superiority from the obscurity of their political views and spend their every waking moment basking in how woke they are.
Also, what is Hunter Avallone doing in this movie?
isn't that like every revolutionary ideology ever?
American Libertarians are anti-state capitalists who have appropriated the name from Annarcho-Communists, anarcho-syndicalists, egoists, mutalists, and other actual libertarian groups. They are not revolutionary as is evident by the fact that they almost always vote with Republicans, a conservatives party whose main priority is preserving the political and social status quo. Nor is it in any way based on rational thought as most so called libertarians labor under the delusion that one can be fiscally conservative while remaining socially progressive. Fiscal Conservatism cannot be divorced from social conservatism, any more than the body can be divorced from the head.
@@blixer8384libertarianism internationally originally came about as a left wing ideology (anarchist left). It’s only in America that it’s considered right wing or conservative. Noam Chomsky would be considered libertarian in most countries, not libertarian socialist or shockingly, communist like he is in America. American politics is an anomaly. It’s the exception, not the rule, since practically every industrialized country in the world has some form of single payer healthcare system. I find Americans talk about politics very differently than most people in other countries. They fear socialism and think it’s synonymous with communism, or that a country like Canada is socialist, even though we have private companies like they do. Even Bernie Sanders isn’t a socialist like he claims to be. Except for free college, he’s right of 80% of Canada’s politicians. Libertarianism as a concept is completely different from libertarianism in the rest of the world. It’s almost anarchism. As if corporations don’t have enough power. Sure, governments can perpetuate that power by allowing them to buy politicians, but any time you have a system where the market isn’t regulated, control goes to the highest bidders and those people won’t care about anyone else unless they have to. They could solve poverty if they wanted to but they won’t. They’re too busy buying a new yacht and blaming poor people for being poor.
This looks like the worst movie you've reviewed. Just looking at a scene makes me question if the people that made it have seen movies before.Good review though. This movie might actually work in a MST3000 episode.
Impossible drinking game: take a shot every time Kevin plugs something.
Yep he's just shilling all over the place. Oh wait, no he isn't, my bad.
You'd probably die from alcohol poisoning :-/
Joe Repp JKSTUDIOS am I right
Drinking Game: Drink whenever the movie is bad.
Princess Leia is my favorite Star Trek character. I love whenever she says her catchphrase, "Bazinga".
"I am a cannabis not a cannibal." Lol! XD
Natalie Poire JKSTUDIOS am I right
Hey Kevin! If you ever feel like switching things up, I'd love to hear you talk about your favorite Adventures in Odyssey episodes.
So that's what "retrosexual" means? I thought that meant he liked roleplaying as the Fonz with a girl dressed like Rosie the Riveter.
A retrosexual is a person that has sexual mores from a bygone era.
Another point for Communism.
lol. I just handed this one to you.
Communisttroll100 Checkmate, ahteists
"Ha Princess Leia! Because of Star Trek!"
The way the director talks about this film is like the way some American Idol contestants talk about their vocal "talent" before going into the judges room and singing like Chewbacca.
I died a little inside Kevin when you said, "Princess Leia, because Star Trek!"
This was... AMAZING!
Kevin, you have found a gem. I'd bet a gold coin that Brad Jones is jealous that he didn't review this first.
Fun fact: the actress portraying the prostitute is the same actress who played pornstar Brandy Maxx on Parks and Recreation.
I'm really confused who i'm supposed to see as the villain in this movie...
like, in the mall scene:
- not being a dick to mexicans: seems like a good idea to me,
- legal cannabis: i've never done drugs myself, (which is weird, because i'm a Dutch College student. You would think i would have, if even by accident :P,) but if you want to smoke weed, and if you're a responsable adult, i'm not gonna stop you.
- woman have the right to own their own body: totally agree! Go Feminism! (You know... before feminist meant `all men are pigs', but back when it still meant `woman should get the same rights as men, and should be treated as equals')
- sell drugs to 11 year olds: ... wait what? No, let's not do that, that's a terrible idea!
- school shooting simulator: uhm........ what?
- let's sell nukes! : no, no, no! Only reasonable, calm, intelligent levelheaded people, should own nukes. You know, people who will be very hesitant, and will explore any alternitave option before using them. Like the president! Oh, wait...... :(
i'm really confused... are libertarians the evil ones in this movie, or the guys i'm supposed to agree with, or both, or neither?
I'm confused as well. Is this saying something like Rapture from Bioshock would be a good or bad thing? Total 100% free market, no regulation at all.
Nobody knows, and that includes the people who made this movie.
Excellent review. But I'll say from personal experience, now you should prepare for non-stop emails, tweets, TH-cam comments, and every other form of contact from the filmmaker telling you that you are wrong and that he can prove it mathematically.
Oh, he'll also say you're not a real libertarian. And that you're an agent of the government.
Michael Dean isn't the jay kneel schoolbus quote at the end of this review something that he wrote in response to the review you gave the movie?
Oh yeah. I thought it sounded familiar.
His reply here on this video is very subdued. He didn't call Kevin a government plant or say he was running liberty.
Just said Kevin was wrong in many many many many ways that can be proven by science and that's a fact, man.
So...he’s a guy who loves googling his own name. Right?
Michael Dean lol....same thing happened to me. That guy’s relentless
I like how ambiguous the director was about who worked in the movie. But the production value makes it look like a creepy guy filmed it in his basement,
So this is a poor mans 1984.
36:05 Kevin, obviously he meant Avatar: The Last Airbender lol
Also, the music was really weird. Sad and vaguely dramatic throughout the entire movie.
every time they blasted that violin music, I kept expecting Celine Dion to sing "My Heart Will Go On"...
It is movies like this that make me ashamed of everything I believe in.
The consent age in Nevada is 16.
The more you know.
Well, that's good to know. lol. Why did she say she would be raping him? Maybe it's the future, I guess.
Same in Massachusetts
Because if you have sex voluntarily with someone under age that's rape.
But if it's not under age. That's what Jem is saying. In Nevada, you're not underage at 16. (I realize I said 15 in the review, but he says 16 in the movie).
The film -- based on a novel -- is advocating anarchy. Basically, what people with fancy degrees would probably called "anarcho-capitalists", which is very closely connected to the philosophy created by Ayn Rand. It is aIts somewhat questionable what the age of consent would be in an anarchist society. Theoretically, their may or may not be professional law enforcement and an independent judicial system in an anarchist society. I mention this because its something I pointed out to a libertarian friend of mine...... Today, in America the age of consent is 18 -- for federal law -- and when it is a state matter it ranges from like, 15 - 18....although that assumes that the u.s. supreme court case law is still relevant
I feel like this is a script Alan Moore would've written when he was three.
Been going through a lot of your older videos since I was introduced to your channel not too long ago, and this review is one of my favorites.
As an unpolitical Australian, I didn't have a snowman's chance in hell of wrapping my head around all the -isms in this movie.
Man, if they didn't paint socialists as complete idiots, I would have thought that this was a straight-up, home-film parody of Agorism, or whatever "ism" you choose to call this.
LOL, right? The mall scene is basically the straw-man parody of libertarians that liberals love to push.
Hey, um, Brandon Roberts, I don't know if you know this, but all your comments have been flagged for some reason. Don't blame me; I couldn't restore them. Just thought you should know.
As to the "baby from nowhere", Neil says that he wanted to shoot a preliminary scene explaining it, but couldn't because of laws regulating the hours you can have a child on the set.
Taking his word, it never seemed to occur to him that he should have shot this scene FIRST, as the rest is useless without it. And since he didn't have the scene, he would have been better off leaving the whole thing out.
"Agarism: We'd Save the Baby."
Great episode Kev, give Barkley treats, and affection from us.Peace
Haha, awesome ending, Inside Voices, starring Barkley, voiced by Kevin?
I have to say, I think that was one of the most entertaining Movie Night episodes so far! XD
I appreciate that you welcome people of differing viewpoints to not only watch but engage in conversation. It's why I'm here, even though I'm an agnostic atheist, sometimes skewing pantheist, and think the Animated Stories From The New Testament was actually a lot better than you gave it credit for.
Moral of the film: if you spend nearly a decade in space with Captain Janeway, you become an Agorist.
451 hours later? Ray Bradbury reference?
+Mikasa Ackerman you're the first to catch it. Lol.
*Donkey Ollie voice*
"hello everybody! hello everybody! HELLLLO ERVERYBODDY!"
The gold coins reminded me of Lethal Weapon 2's Krugerrands.
Does this movie's setting remind anyone else of Rapture from Bioshock? Though I'm still confused if the movie considers it a good or a bad thing.
This movie is very confusing, so you're totally right about what you say at the end Kevin, as someone who doesn't really know a ton about this topic, libertarian, agorist, I have no idea what this movie was trying to say.
I've never even heard the term agorist until this video.
I dabble in economic theory, am a minarchist/libertarian, and *I* hadn't even heard the term "agorist" until this movie.
Soooo your saying if I invest in gold, then I can easily pick up prostitutes?
Thanks Kevin, I didn't know I needed this, but now I can't even remember a time without it!
So, Colorado Springs was actually a bit of a libertarian paradise for a while. There was a law passed called TABOR, which basically said every tax bill needed to specifically and singularly voted on, and no tax raises were allowed without a unanimous vote. So because of that, we couldn't afford to light all our street lights. They left it up to the individual neighborhoods/individuals to pay the bill if they wanted the lights to be turned on. You know what happened? People stole the copper wiring out of the lights. Nobody wants to pay for lights. But you know what pays for lights? TAAAAXXXEEEES.
I am an Atheist and a Libertarian. I have alot of respect for you Kevin and enjoy your channel immensely. Keep up the good work.
The president in this film looks like Eric Trump.
"Old enough to be under your covers baby!"
Hey Kevin, I got roped into seeing The Case for Christ (by Pureflix of course) and boy it was interesting. I hope to see a review of it some time, cause those were some memorable lines...
YOU'RE CHEATING ON ME WITH JESUS!!!
Is it wrong that I adore Kevin Sorbo, even though everything that he's been in has been trash?
Possibly my favourite show on TH-cam. Say movienight Kevin
Ron Paul has the best taste in films!
What is even going on with this movie?? Just what? The plot is disfigured and there's and impenetrable wall of jargon?? Some background would have been nice. xD The review is great though. I enjoyed your comments a lot, especially the simple explanations on economics.
I died at the suspenseful elevator part. 10/10. will probably watch this movie for laughs again.
those memes... they were dank!!
When he said "Princess Leia... because of Star Trek!"( 29:20 ) I died a little inside.. XD
Many of the greatest action heroes have names that start with "J."
The three you listed, Jason Borne, James Bond, and Jack Reacher, are just the tip of the iceberg.
John Connor, John McClane, John Rambo, John Shaft, John Wick, Jack Ryan, Jackie Brown, James Kirk, Judge Dredd, etc.
This goes great with Today's... Yesterday's... Two days ago's Whoob Would Build Robes episode...
One day... One day that popcorn bucket will hold the Precious Golden Puffs once more...
Plot twist! This was all on the hollow deck of star trek voyager. That would've clarified all the confusion!
If you're dying of thirst and the seller knows this, suddenly that Ice Cold Six pact cost you everything you have on you.
Unless someone from across the street comes along and sells you that six pack for half of everything you have, just to get your business.
Assuming of course the seller doesn't own a monopoly on six packs. And if their's no government, than their's no laws, meaning no anti-monopoly laws. It also means no murder laws so the guy could just kill the seller and take his product.
The saddest part of this whole movie is that they somehow dragged Tuvok into this...
and now Ensign Kim, WHAT HAVE Y'ALL DONE?!?!
ALSO! Was the compound the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers base?
Both of them were out of work at the time and needed the money. Acting sucks.
This movie's like a weird delirious fever dream. I'm still not sure that I didn't just hallucinate this entire movie, and by extension, this review.
*twiddles fingers in a precise manner* DOODLOODLOODL
Elliot looks like what I imagine it'd look like if Hunter Avallone and Jedidiah Duggar had a kid
Ooh! A blu-ray! You're really moving up in the world!
I never knew this existed. Now I'm just mad that it exists.
Thanks for the review. Thirty-eight minutes to review my movie. Quite an honor.
For anyone who actually wants to watch my movie instead of substituting any reviewer's judgment for their own it's streaming on Amazon Video/Amazon Prime, streaming on iTunes, and currently playing on several Roku channels. Or you can get the Blu-ray/DVD combo pack with the extra features. And if your 5.1 audio setup is so incompetently installed that the music channels are louder than the center dialogue channel -- as Kevin's appears to be -- pick the 2-channel-stereo option from the Blu-ray or DVD set-up menu.
One heads up. There are about two or three dozen misrepresentations about the movie's content -- plot, characters, and production methods -- in Kevin's review. Enjoy finding them.
Find my TH-cam channel, Google me to find my blogs, and look at my Amazon author's page for my novels, short stories, and other books.
There's also a free PDF edition of the original Alongside Night novel the movie is based on available at AlongsideNight dot net or on Amazon as Kindle or paperback.
J. Neil Schulman
oh no.
Told ya, Kevin. lol. ^
I'm an atheist and I love your content! XD
"Congress shall make no law" comes from an actual occurrence at a Libertarian Convention.
Milton Friedman had given a talk, and in the Q&A he was asked what single change he would make to the U.S. Constitution if it were in his power. He said that was an excellent question, and thinking on his feel, he replied, "Congress shall make no law.....(pondering)...." One conventioneer jumped up applauding, and was quickly joined by a bunch of people. Funny story.
What the crap was that😂😂😂😂😂👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽
so bad its good hahahaha
Great review, as always. My theory on the bikini girl is that she's the girl from the school in the beginning but the actress bailed halfway through filming. Anyway, I just have a question. You said you watched this at least four times, and that's just ridiculous. Are you watching any good movies as well, Christian or otherwise???
Ashley Elliott I'm sure he watches plenty of good movies, but to make a good review it would probably be beneficial to watch it multiple times, especially when it is a confusing movie like this one, where you literally have no clue what is going on.
I totally get that, I just wanna make sure all of his movie time isn't spent on watching stupid stuff. :P
I agree, we should start a campaign to save him from these bad movies!
Ive seen this movie 4 or 5 times as well. .... I can't help myself.....even still I have no idea what's going on.. But your theory is actually a solid theory.... I imagine more than one or two actors wanted to bail halfway through lol
Well done. Nobody can say you aren't fair, at least, in your social criticism. Or, at least, even ideologies with which you would tend to agree can make some impressively bad movies.
On another note, what the hell happened to Kevin Sorbo?
I can't help but love this mini-Voyager reunion though.
"With a tisk and an eye roll"
You want libertarianism in movies, then make a good movie first. This is a bad as the Pureflix stuff that sacrifices artistic value for an "in-your-face" message.
yep lol
when i saw the title image I was lke "WUT IN TARNATIUN" But now I understand. bahaha!
This is hysterically bad. What on earth. Love your review, Kevin!
7:03 "AND I'M ERIC!!!"
Edit: In the future, Eric Trump is supposedly our President. Jr. did not see it coming.
Do all the economics you want. You're brilliant at it. God bless John Maynard Keynes!
I am sorry I am 10 minutes into this review and I am kinda lost on all this economic talk. I don't which side the characters are on or even what Kevins positions are as a "Minarchist". I am not a strong lover of capitalism system nor do I think we should just go full socialism. If anything is going to work we want a balance.
Girl InaHat The Closest thing to that would be Nordic Socialism/Capitalism also refereed to as Social Democracy. Which has the Social Welfare that Socialism preaches, but rarely actually implements, and allows for free-markets to allow. While I often describe myself as a socialist I don’t believe in eliminating all private property. But I do believe that some industries should have public option (health care) and some industries should never be private under any circumstances (private prisons are an affront to human decency, and private police forces are just asking for trouble)
@@blixer8384 Of course you don't advocate eliminating all private property because then you wouldn't have any productive people to steal from in order to support your kind of society.
Karen Kordes No I just believe that people should be allowed to run small businesses perfectly where all members are equal owners with oversight from the government.
Damn Kev you were really far on that graph lmao are you an extremist? Am I seceetly subbed to the leader of the next revolution? 😂 All good love your vids keep them up!
I think I just don’t like people who try to control other people. Politicians and Church leaders all tend to be cut from the same cloth. But I’m too lazy to start a revolution. I’d rather sleep in.
All the Star Trek actors in this just cracks me up.
I did research, and only ONE composer that was part of this film was connected to big budget films (dark knight and birdman). And the only well known thing the director has created is the twilight zone reboot series. I did notice some of the actors were part of big budget projects (some of them as extras, of course). Just thought it was interesting how the director hyped the film. great video tho
Coincidentally I was just sitting down to watch Avatar
Definitely wasn't expecting the David Carradine joke 😂
Its not a pureflix its a diiiirtyyy movie xD that means pg level jokes 😂
14:40 The key light is on two separate sides on each shot reverse shot. HAHAHHAHAHAHAAA
Minnie Mouse looks like a who
Also have I seen the president fight space bugs before with Johnny Rico?
Also Also, apparently Brandi Maxxx retired from porn in Pawnee to become a hooker that propositions teens in Nevada.
Also Also Also I think a much too large chunk of the budget was spent on random cameos...I mean getting Tuvok AND Harry from the Delta Quadrant isn't cheap.
Also Also Also Also I had no idea STR was made for 400k, it looks like they spent 1 mil easy so kudos to those guys for using the budget effectively.
Why have I watched this like a hundred times?
Director: We're not anarchists, we're Agorists.
*Well that just sounds like anarchists with extra steps*
Right?! Lol
@Declan Handley-Byrne
Oh my god... did the director created our miniverse?!
don't forget that Elliot's father in Alongside Night is a world famous economist--I believe Austrian
Whoa 31:08 was so medda!!! How are you so good at editing!?!?😂😂😂
Oh Kevin is literally a magic person.
You should have millions of subs.
FYI Alongside Night has now been pirated in at least 6 foreign countries. Having a movie pirated is actually an honor to the film-makers! Forget about what Americans think of this movie because people in Asian countries are fascinated with it. It is has now been translated into German, Russian, Arabic, Indonesian, Thai and Esperanto.
Kevin, you and your channel are the reasons why I am a capitalist libertarian. I used to be a conservative. XD
