Audience Member Interesting if nothing else; quite a few axes being ground. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Only a three, because I already knew all these stories about how scummy Rove and Bush were. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member This doc's title refers to Karl Rove, who served as advisor to both George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush. The filmmaking team of Joseph Mealey and Michael Paradies Shoob look at Rove's beginnings as a school debating champion to an Republican attack dog, who led successful smears against Texas Gov. Ann Richards and Senator John McCain, among others. The film was completed before the 2004 election got into high gear, or else he'd be implicated in the swift-boating of Senator John Kerry. It's blatant propaganda, but one that makes quite a persuasive case. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member If you only watch Fox New or listen to right wing radio this movie will confuse you, enrage you, cause you to foam at the mouth, cause you to scream at the monitor and make you run to Palin's chapter about the lame media seeking comfort. For the rest of us that are informed and educated you will find the movie compelling, informative and a compilation of facts that started surfacing when Rove started growing horns and a tail. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Bush's Brain finds some people to look at a handful of instances and say bad things about Karl Rove, for an hour and a half. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member the best parts of the documentary pertain to rove's early career, it gets a little obvious at the end of the film.
