I wrote extensively about this film, mostly because it seemed that every other review totally missed the point.
And then after all that pretentious verbiage, the curse of my pedantic streak coupled with an improbable undergraduate degree in literature (obviously chosen before I decided to pay the bills), I ended up with essentially the same opinion as everyone else.
It just goes to show you that Trump is right. Research, facts and reasoning are bullshit. It’s character-Colbert’s “truthiness” that always wins the day.
