Very Well Done!November 20, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I rented expelled not really knowing what to expect. After watching it I was glad I picked it up. For a long time I've known that colleges and universities lean to the left in their liberal arts. But I never believed this predisposition would include the hard sciences. If half of the case Mr. Stein presents is correct, academia in this country is a joke. And I would add that the issue isn't really if you believe in ID or not, the issue is while seaching for answers that no one has does it make sense to exclude a theory just because you disagree with it? I thought it was a great movie and very well done by Mr. Stein.
Expelled no intellagence allowedNovember 19, 2008 Wow!! This is an amazing movie with remarkable interviews on one of the most imortant topics. Our freedoms are threatened. Why can't we believe that intellegant design is how life began? Why are we being tought that Darwin's theory on the origin of life is a fact? Ben does a great job bringing these issues to light. I'm happy to own this movie.
Good, but not what I expectedNovember 19, 2008 I thought this was going to be a DVD of Ben Stein's thoughts, well it isn't. It's about Intelligent Design with Ben Stein talking to various and sundry folks about it. I didn't get through the whole DVD. I plan on donating my copy to the library, hopefully someone else will be able to enjoy it.
If you are interested at all in Intelligent Design, this is the video for you. If you find Ben Stein intelligent and want to hear his thoughts, this probably won't be your cup of tea.

Ben Stein has taken on the scientific community at a level I have never seen before. Exposing their prejudice against the theory of intelligent design and calling them to task over their lack of explanation of how life began is simply masterful. This is not a movie endorsing religious views he simply is asking the logical question, why is intelligent design not even considered as a possibility.

It's entertaining but at the same time educational. Why should the status quo media rule the air waves. Be aware of censorship by the status quo would be a good title for this movie.
