klr D @RT03479079 Apr 13, 2026 This should be required viewing for every American who cares about our future. The powers that be, didn't like the message of this film, and tried to quash it. It's very sad that Teachers Unions wield so much power in the halls of Congress, but they do. And our groveling media have no interest in challenging Sacred Cows of the Democrat Party, despite the obvious need for reform of our education system. It's a real shame that we fail our kids, to protect a political narrative. No matter your politics, please watch this film from the director of An Inconvenient Truth. It's a brave and compelling documentary.

A provocative call to reflect and examine how’s our education’s being handled and received, critically contributing to the given problematic decline that goes against the promising stance and considerately stretched to acknowledge both sides of the classroom with a humble heart reflecting academic performances.

Also, VERY entertaining! See more Feb 17, 2024 when you get down to it it really sinks in our American education system is broken but it's never too late to completely save it all the interviews and statistics may seem like nothing but it really strikes right into you me, I couldn't believe the number of people who get shunned out b/c of the lack of the quality of schools most people rarely get that lucky to send their children to top-quality learning facilities alot of it makes sense once you thoroughly analyze everything it's a brilliant, retrospective documentary covering nervewracking topics about parents and childrens' desires to be the best at learning it's a little too long but 'Waiting for Superman' acheives what it does at taking a critical, serious sit-down the kids are our future and the founders of what makes us the best when it comes to education See more Gina W @RT47387387 Jul 15, 2022 It really makes me sad to see bad teachers get rewarded the same as good teachers. A little dated but still relevant. See more forrest h @OurNewProgress Mar 20, 2020 It will challenge you, and make you ask questions. Like any great documentary, it will start a conversation.
