LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

tonymurphylee I may not agree with everything that Republicans do, but I don't agree with everything that Democrats do either. That's why I'm an Independent. Anyway, this was a really informative and interesting documentary. There are interviews with Republicans involved in the entertainment industry of America such as Drew Carey, Vincent Gallo, Ben Stein, and John Milius among others. There is a common stereotype that Republicans just rant and are always angry. People like Rush Limbaugh certainly don't help this common misconception. I'm happy to see that whole idea done away with completely once the interviewees actually sit down and talk frankly about what life is like in the industry. I also applaud the effort in going so far as to follow the efforts of Arnold Schwarzenegger to become mayor. That was all done very well and was interesting. I liked that Jesse Moss(the director) is a democrat and actually takes the time to unearth these ideas in an honest and hate-free way. It was really nice. The documentary works fine. I hate politics, mainly because I seem to know more about politics than almost everybody around me, so I am not particularly interested in seeing this again. But it's a solid documentary and it's worth checking out for anybody who is interested.Pros: -Good interviews -relaxed filming -no stereotypes or egos on display -generally very thought provoking Cons: -I would have liked to hear from more Republicans like Sylvester Stallone or someone -WAY WAY WAY too short

lrtibbseash1 I was relieved to see someone finally exploring conservative values in Hollywood. Yes, people there are actual celebrities in Hollywood who are not too cowardly to say they vote Republican like most of us non-celebrity Americans did this last election. With the current liberal media preaching tolerance this documentary will hopefully convince all those touting this abused word to actually follow their own advice when conservative, working actors, comedians, musicians state their own conservative point of view. You have gotta hand it to former Democratic speech writer Jesse Moss for delving into such a provocative topic such as this.

Lee Eisenberg As Hollywood is known as a Democratic bastion, it's always an eye-opener when we learn about which people in Tinseltown are Republicans. In "Rated 'R': Republicans in Hollywood", Jesse Moss interviews some of them and focuses on Arnold Schwarzenegger's run for governor. Sadly, Moss never looks at specific political issues or challenges what some of these people think.For the most part, it was mostly interesting to see affirmed conservatives (e.g., Drew Carey, John Milius) being civil, as we might assume that they sit around ranting all day. Still, the documentary would have been better if Moss had looked at the issues.

director_mitch As a republican, I was curious to watch a documentary of republicans in Hollywood. I was even more curious when the director disclosed in the first few minutes that he himself was a democrat, and I think this was the honest and correct thing to do. And even though he is covering a party and people he disagrees with, the show overall is fair and balanced.As for the quality, I thought the documentary was pretty good, but a very, very large portion of it concentrates on Aunuld's run for governor. We all know how that ends up and there have been other shows and even movies on that, so I think he should have done more interviews and concentrated less on "See Arnold Run" (for example Dennis Miller appears only in archive footage and would have been a good interviewee).The other thing I didn't like is that the director inserted too much of himself into the show - especially at the end. I really don't care what he decided to do after he was done with the documentary - I wanted to hear about politics in Hollywood. So a good portion of this film is really an ego piece ("Hey, look at me! I interviewing republicans! Now I'm working for democrats!").I'd give it between 4 and 5 stars.
