I've always liked Ben Stein, even before I found out that he is a believer in intelligent design, something which I am very passionate about but am usually to afraid to talk about for fear of being ridiculed. This documentary's synopsis has already been covered plenty, so I won't bore you by repeating it. What I really like about this documentary though, is that rather than focus solely on the science behind ID versus evolution, it focuses more on the political side of things. This movie is extremely controversial, and that's to be expected. There are some things in the film that are somewhat questionable, such as Ben Stein's paraphrasing of a Darwin quote to paint it in a more cynical light, however this does not discredit its message as a whole.
If you're looking for a point-for-point scientific discussion of ID versus evolution, this DVD is probably not what you're looking for (there are a great many other books and DVDs out there that do offer such discussions). However, it does get my glowing stamp of recommendation for the fact that it exposes the hostile environment that the scientific community has created, and that the attitude of "shut up and don't ask questions" attitude is not simply a Bible-thumper's fairy tale. Discussing ID is not popular, and so I'm very thankful to Mr. Stein for taking such a huge risk and attaching his name to this film, even though it has, as expected, led to a lot of criticism.

This "film" prefers to ignore the facts and impose dogma of fantasy. A waste of money unless you are someone who believes Creationism is the only thing that should be taught. Sad...
shame on pseudoscience! January 6, 2009

Religious baloney masquerading as science. Don't be fooled. Well-known skeptic Richard Dawkin's name was put on this movie without his permission to make it seem like a balanced, thoughtful perspective.
 The Secular World needs to Hear the Flimsy 'evidence' January 5, 2009

Having seen this documentary the day it was released here in Maine was exciting. I had to hunt really hard to find a theater that was showing this film in its premiere. Making a long story short, this was well done by Ben Stien, et al for the way they allowed the evolutionists to put their own foot in their mouths as their presented their own view of how the world came into being. Their 'evidence' is just non- existant and such a sham on the world. Only a fool could or would buy into their belief system. What is so shocking and I feel the real reason this documentary was made is how the top educators in our colleges and universities simply will not tolerate any view but their own, to the hurt of our young people that desire to be taught authentic science. To make the creationism worldview available would only by educationally fair (what have they got to fear?)....but....thank God!! The Lord is soverign and ultimately the Truth will out. The reason I've only given four stars is the fact that they creationism view wasn't adequately presented, but those who have a heart to know the Truth WILL know the Truth as they have a choice in the matter. Psalm 19; Romans 1:20 and following.
