The movie was very compelling, but it does have flaws. Most of the damaging evidence was just kind of thrown out there with you the viewer left to make your own assumptions. The only solid point that can be made is that Bush has been neck deep in Saudi money ever since his first business. And that Bush is a crappy businessman.
Also, that part with the crying mother went on way too long. It went from showing the pain of losing a son to just a way to get the people in the audience choked up. Twice.
Being an atheist, I also came away with another thing that was probabally unintended. I kept thinking about how useless these people's religions were. The mother who lost her son asks Jesus why her boy had to be taken, he never did anything to anybody. The Muslim woman asks God to protect her and her family but that doesn't seem to work either. The whole time I was thinking that if these people didn't rely on God so much none of this would have ever happened.
