I watched this in real-time back in the day, and I really liked it. I remember it being based on a real-life psychic. I decided to rewatch it since I hate most post-2019 TV shows. I enjoyed it all over again. It's one of the perks of getting older and not remembering plots from TV shows you watched 20 years ago lol. I remember now that I didn't like the show at one point, and I can say it's because of S4. All the characters have problems, and everyone seems to be struggling and unhappy. Patricia Arquette and the actor who plays her husband do a fantastic job of making me believe they are a real-life couple with 3 daughters. Yes, it is formula drama that does a lot of the same storylines, but that's what I like. A simple plot and knowing what to expect vs having to pause every 15 seconds and explain to my 91-year-old dad what the heck is going on.
Finally, a film that isn't afraid to tell the truth! While the usual crowd will cry about "propaganda," this movie delivers a much-needed reality check on the corrupt institutions that have failed the people for far too long.
The writing? Sharp. The acting? Raw and effective. The budget? Who cares? This isn't about flashy effects-it's about delivering a message that the mainstream would rather you ignore. The story cuts deep, exposing the lies we're force-fed by those who want to control the narrative. And that's precisely why critics are so desperate to discredit it.
Best of all, it doesn't shy away from calling out the real problems: the erosion of free speech, the unchecked power of intelligence agencies, and the blatant bias in the media. The fact that it has Fox News clips woven in just proves its commitment to showing what the establishment refuses to air.
Elon Musk's role? Entirely fitting. He represents what terrifies the system-someone who can't be bought, someone with the power to challenge the censors. If that makes you uncomfortable, maybe it's because you're used to seeing billionaires bow to the establishment, not stand against it.
And yes, it dares to bring up Joe Biden's son-because guess what? That's a real scandal, no matter how much the media tries to bury it. As for Trump's Twitter ban, that was one of the most outrageous acts of political censorship in modern history. If the film brings it up, it's because it matters.
As for the so-called "brainwashing," it's rich to hear that from people who champion films that push establishment-approved narratives. The fact that this movie even exists in a world where dissenting voices are constantly shut down is a miracle. If the best argument against it is that it "sows distrust" in government and institutions-good. Maybe people should start questioning the people who have lied to them for years.
A must-watch for anyone tired of being spoon-fed the same old narratives.

This is a great movie, better than I ever expected. After seeing it I came to IMDB expecting to see an 8+ rating, but of course it's barely over 6. Why? The left wing bots are in full force on this one. They have bombarded every single positive review with a not helpful thumbs down. It's so obvious that it does the opposite of it's intended goal. You know this movie is going to be great just by the amount of effort being made to get you not to watch it. It is so wonderful that in a post X world truth comes to light and the American people are no longer being fooled. There is power in numbers and we can all feel a change a coming! Now give me all those down votes, I relish it.
