 Rating:  - Quick, Fast and UnclearUncovered disappointed me a lot. I have heard great things about Robert Greenwald documentaries and asked for the set of his movies last Christmas. I haven't seen the others yet, but this one is fast talking, quickly cut and unclear. I don't feel the movie makes it case. I have no doubt that the Iraq War was manufactured and have always believed that. My experience with the Iraq War was that it was an obvious lie from the beginning and obvious to most people in the country. People just seem ... Read More Rating:  - Not the Truth and Whole TruthGreenwald does an excellent job of helping the CIA cover their tracks. He puts together a lot of how's as to US military involvement in Iraq, but it doesn't get into more whys, and it doesn't uncover much of the darker reasons. It doesn't cover anything about Iranian/US/European/Russian relations, Iranian interests throughout the region, Saudi/US/European relations, nothing about China's subtle influences, not much about non-state actors (he does a different expose of mostly one, KBR, in another work ... Read More Rating:  - Stunning, sad, upsetting, honest, shockingThere is nothing I can say that the other 4 and 5 star reviews have not already said. This documentary interviews the actual people who were in the U.N. weapons inspections and counter proliferation teams. The people that actually went into Iraq and checked for WMDs. Listen to what they have to say and prepare to be disgusted by the administration of King George. Rating: - Blow's Michael Moore's stint under the waterThis film entails all the facts which still for a large part, elude the American people about the leadup to the Iraq War. Michael's Moore's populist tirades and appeal to pacifism in his Farenheit 9/11 film are merely a distraction from the hard cold lies that the Bush administration told, which are the main reason we should remain outraged. . This film is a case for impeachment, though the opportunity for that case has perhaps been passed. But it's never too late to get history straight. Rating: - OK, except that it doesn't uncover much.If I hadn't been waking on my treadmill burning calories while I watched this, it might have been a total waste of time. I saw film clips which I've seen before being commented on by, and I'll admit, a good number of people who seemed very qualified to do so. The problem is, it really didn't "uncover" much. It was more like a review of the events leading up to the Iraq war with very little in the way of startling revelations, unless you didn't watch the news at all during this time period. ...
