Audience Member I highly recommend for anyone interested in politics - regardless of your political leanings! A very entertaining, funny and insightful look into the political world in a digital age. Provides an intriguing perspective on a fascinating less-known political player, and some of the young activists and the ways they see the world and play a political game.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this movie so much I watched it again immediately. Great story, high quality production. Fun to watch. Congratulation to everyone involved. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I have recommended this movie to everyone I know, it is spectacular. Especially for teens, girls and boys alike, who are craving a role model of a loving, strong and wise man who treats others with respect and dignity. This goes beyond political ideology; this is about what being a truly good human is all about, and what an impact following your passion has on the world. Refreshing for adults; a gamechanger of hope and inspiration for kids. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This was an amazing opportunity to learn about the lesser known political aspects of America. Most stories like Mike Gravel's are buried underneath political party popularity contests & never receive the true attention they deserve. American Gadfly brings to light the optimistic reality of American politics that we rarely see on the news. 10/10 recommend to anyone who wants to experience an educational film while also enjoying a hopeful and feel good movie. I truly can't wait to see the momentum this film picks up & I only wish I could've been made aware of Mike Gravel earlier in life. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Warning! This movie could inspire hope. The film captures the 2020 long shot campaign of former Senator Mike Gravel. A handful of teens scheme up a way to draft the Senator and run a Presidential Twitter campaign from their bedroom. I would be selling the movie short if I left it there. It takes you through the campaign chronologically sure but to call it a campaign film would be to undervalue it. It's about the kind of people who are told "hey, that's just the way things are" but march forward anyway. The kind of people who would risk their future/careers to let the truth be known. Even if you are not familiar with Gravel or the Pentagon Papers by the end of the film you'll be wishing there were more people like him and the young men who ran his off the wall campaign might convince you there just might be.
