1.0 out of 5 stars This would make a better tape than a DVD, April 28, 2006

This review is from: Mega Fix: The Dazzling Political Deceit That Led to 9/11 (DVD)

This is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever seen on DVD. This guy, who is extremely boring, stands there and talks about this whole big conspiracy, citing "the internet" as his all authoritative source. The way it is filmed is extremely annoying and consists of nothing but this guy in front of a dropcloth with two or three cameras that walk back and forth, zoom in and out, filming him. There is no footage of anything he talks about. Maybe it would be OK just to listen to but even that is a stretch. Don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars The most annoying radio show I've ever watched on TV, February 27, 2005

This review is from: Mega Fix: The Dazzling Political Deceit That Led to 9/11 (DVD)

First, the good news. Mr. Cashill presents some accurate and shocking information that every American should know, particularly a portion of the abundant evidence that TWA Flight 800 was brought down by a missile. However, you can get that information elsewhere for free, in much greater detail, and with supporting documentation so you have a good reason to believe it, rather than simply believing it because some guy on TV/radio told you so.

The bad news is everything else about this DVD. I have no idea who Jack Cashill is, but he sure does spend 90 minutes trying to make sure you learn who he is. It seems more like a grand play to join the big leagues of talking heads than a legitimate... I hesitate to call it a "documentary". Either way, it was almost impossible for me to pay attention to what he said, for a variety of reasons:

1. A huge amount of effort seems to have gone into designing a unique "style" for Mr. Cashill, so that you would remember *him* more than anything he actually said. For example, his sleeves were unbuttoned, but not rolled up. Doesn't quite have the flair of the Carl Sagan's turtleneck/sport coat combo, or the irreverance of Michael Moore's sloppy bum look, but at least it's unique.

2. Mr. Cashill sounds like he has read books like "How To Win Friends and Influence People" and "Speak and Grow Rich" more often than Billy Graham has read the Bible. His speaking style is so deliberately designed to evoke trust and emotion that... well, I just can't trust him or get very excited about anything he says. He mentioned having a radio show, so this may just be the result of years of broadcasting in a forum where viewers cannot adequately challenge anything he says. Either way, it's really annoying.

3. The content is schizophrenic, combining shocking facts (which you can learn elsewhere), undocumentated assertions, and personal opinion into what Mr. Cashill clearly regards as the one and only way things really happened over the past decade. He even tells us what went on inside the White House during times of national crisis. Did he bug the oval office, or is he just *guessing*? In fact, he even calls himself the "custodian of a great story...". It's difficult to take that seriously.

4. The cinematography is embarrassing to watch. The camera jumps and bounces around, and switches viewpoints and angles like a heavy metal music video. Completely inappropriate for a monologue where Mr. Cashill claims explain why thousands of people have lost their lives over the past decade. They even cut once in a while to show the cameramen filming him, for no good reason at all.

5. Mr. Cashill clearly has some kind of agenda that doesn't include love for Bill Clinton, or Democrats in general. I personally couldn't care less about the Democrat or Republican cults, but whenever someone in one of those groups is totally preoccupied with trashing the other, you're not likely to an objective viewpoint. The sad thing is, he's probably not far off in his basic assumption that Clinton's political ambitions led to tragic mismanagement and cover-ups of terrorist investigations. However, he doesn't mention that the same is true for every other recent president, including the fellow sitting in Clinton's old chair at the moment.

6. The DVD doesn't even have a main menu, let alone special features that might substantiate a few of his claims. This is sad because there *is* documentation for many of his claims. But no one should believe anything just because a guy or gal on TV said it is true, and without documentation that is exactly what they are asking you to do.

7. Worst of all, the camera operators focused on Mr. Cashill's crotch a little too often for my tastes. I really didn't need to see that.

If you are not susceptible to propaganda and manipulation you might even get some good food for thought out of this DVD. But for most people I'd recommend alternative media that presents more documented facts, and less theory about how those facts fit together. This DVD is essentially a televised radio monologue of one man's conspiracy theory, which can be entertaining enough, but not very enlightening.

THIS THING IS BEING HAWKED AS A DOCUMENTARY WHEN IN REALITY IT'S NOTHING MORE THAN SOME SO CALLED "EXPERT" STANDING IN FRONT OF A CAMERA WITH WHAT LOOKS LIKE A BEDSHEET AS A BACKGROUND DOING A 90 MINUTE MONOLOGUE.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. I'D GET MINE BACK BUT I TOSSED THE RECIEPT.
