i've seen the movie at a special screening w/ al himself.
i had high expectations going into it and quite honestly it was much much better than i expected.
i see many movies that i enjoy academically but can't say they were very entertaining. those movies are the type that i feel better for having seen and enjoy going to seem them ... but they always feel like a little bit of work.
Al's movie was educational however it was constructed in a way I found quite entertaining a well. Because of this it seems to have some cross-over potential that is critically important.
highly recommended.
