Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This movie is amazing. Like all good movies it makes you think and question. Even if you don't agree with any of the points made you cannot rubbish it because that's exactly the point. To question, to think to be ourselves and not blind.

If you prefer a simplified, nearsighted view of money, politics, and religion. It may cause one to go online and fact check conspiracy theories they hadn't previously known much about, which could be a plus.

This documentary is literally just a bunch of conspiracy theories. For the people who believe this to be "true", the facts stated don't directly prove the suggested conclusions. There's a reason it's called a conspiracy "theory". Now for the people who say it's supposed to make you question the truth, it simply doesn't intend to do that. As already stated it comes to its own conclusions. Its own version of the "truth" which again has no reliable evidence.Even the editing is horrible. No subtlety in the way he gets his point across. The intro to Part II about 9/11 is a joke. The exact way planes are shown colliding is worthy of parody. Oh wait, it has been already multiple times. Cringe worthy. P.S. An audio recording of Alex Jones is used, but his name isn't quoted an the bottom of the screen. Now what does that say.

At the time when Zeitgeist hit the internet it's been recommended by several people around me. And since it's been available online for free, i decided to give it a try. From today's standpoint it is clear to me how viral campaigning can't work alone, i.e. posting your home video and expecting millions of viewers to share it. Traditional media must be involved at some point. Because of this lesson i gave Zeitgeist the second star.Concerning the contents, Zeitgeist fails already in the first of three segments. The story of Christianity and comparison to other older religions was interesting, yet my desktop research failed to identify or prove any of "evidence" presented. It is not whether you're a Christian or not, rather about using your mind.From then on the i regarded Zeitgeist as a video experiment, although on under-graduate level.The segment on 9-11 was just one of many conspiracy theories. Whether you believe the official version or not, in today's world it should be clear how any media report is skewed according to that particular media's needs. And even when it is the truth and nothing but the truth, some spin doctor might use it to support the bad guys. Therefore i don't see why i should believe Zeitgeist's version of events leading to and surrounding 9-11.The third segment asserted how history is manipulated to benefit the small group of greedy individuals. On the one hand, it should be clear that there would always be an elite profiting from any event in contemporary society. On the other hand i doubt it would be a group of Freemasons, Men in Black, Rothschilds or similar members of conspiracy theorists' menagerie controlling all events around the globe.Overall Zeitgeist puts forward some interesting ideas that are mixed with fabrications to such extent that it discredits itself.
