Milton G The Documentary left me thinking that Wakefield knows the benefits of vaccination, but also knows how to become a Billionaire by using faked science and faked research. I have no doubt whatsoever that Mr Wakefield protects himself by using vaccines, as he knows the consequences. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The title should have been "The Pathological Optimist: The Truth About Andrew Wakefield According To Himself And The Anti-vaxxers Involved In Making This Film". But hey, I know, it's just too long of a title to work. If a film advertises itself as a fair and unbiased look at something, shouldn't it deliver? This does not. Que sad, dramatic music...spend the majority of time interviewing Wakefield, his family, and his handful of desperate and vulnerable science, history and Immunology illiterate supporters, provide only brief flashes of a limited amount of the legal and professional outcomes of his fraudulent and unethical actions, mislead viewers (who likely have little to no reliable information prior to seeing this tripe) by ommission of incredibly important facts, and you will have.. this film. Truly disappointing!!! I'll add this to my list of 'Wasted time I won't get back's activities. Here's another wonderful and honest critique that lists a multitude of accurate critiques about this film: https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-pathological-optimist-more-a-hagiography-of-andrew-wakefield-than-a-documentary-about-him/ Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A great film, and a very scary look at the corruption that reigns in the world today...A must watch. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent film, tells the truth about Andrew Wakefield's fight against the vaccine industry. Well worth a look ?? Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this film on amazon prime. finally the man gets to tell everyone what happened to him. it's not the picture portrayed by the mainstream media that readily lynched him for the pharmaceutical companies. a must see film! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a good movie that shows the tragedy of being on the wrong side of the pharmaceutical companies. This amazing doctor was bullied, belittled, discredited for requesting more safety studies, slowing down the MMR to separate components and listening to the mother who asked for his help.
