It's simple really. It was the equivalent of me asking "What do you think of World War II?" Well...about what? Do mean D-Day or the Bombing of Dresden? You just asked if the movie was accurate. This was a 2 hour movie that makes 10 claims a minute.

The short answer is no. It's wrong on a number of points. The conspiracy theories and any points relating to the Federal Reserve are just wrong and the first third on religion stretches the truth on some points. I believe they've also been accused of just stealing the religious points from "The God Who Wasn't There." Either way, there's no real way to analyze these without a 20 page thesis. If you had asked about specific points, then I would have happily answered.

I also have to admit that I didn't answer because I (and I assume the 4 no votes) decided that you were just advertising this movie. I've seen this attitude by a number of people promoting both Zeitgeist movies, Creationism, and 9/11 conspiracy theories. They post a movie or an argument and ask what people think about it and then ignore the no answers in a frustrating display of confirmation bias. It's a big waste of time for anyone against the position.

Years of being on the Internet and on the JREF forums have poisoned me against anyone who is interested in these movies thoug. I apologize if I judged you incorrectly. There are a number of threads on the JREF forum discussing the movie. I'll include a link to the forum in my sources. Just conduct a search and you should see a few threads about it.
