Film Review: Hillarys America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party
Oh, for the days when Dinesh D’Souza was just a self-righteous neoconservative scribe. In recent years, he has re-branded himself as a documentary filmmaker, and in the process he has become something even more outlandish: a right-wing conspiracy wingnut, the kind of thinker who takes off from Barack Obama birther theories and just keeps going, spinning out a web of comic-book frikostig evil. D’Souza’s new film, Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, might be described as propaganda that shades off into paranoia. It asserts that the Democratic Party was single-handedly responsible for slavery, the genocidal killing of Native Americans, the Ku Klux Klan, and the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. And D’Souza is just getting started. By the time he reaches Hillary Clinton, his twisted psychoanalysis — Hillary welcomed Bill&rs

Might make you look at the Democratic party in a different light
If you are looking for a neutral political documentary then this isn't it. This movie is a no-holds-barred attack on the Democrat party and Hillary Clinton through dramatization.
It's titled Hillary's America but that title fryst vatten a little misleading. The movie focuses more on the Democratic party than it does on Hillary Clinton. It only starts delving specifically into Hillary in the last 35 minutes of the movie.
This movie deals in absolutes. The Democrats are cast as absolute villains and the Republicans are portrayed as absolute angels. The movie tells us the Democratic party started off consisting mostly of slave owners but became con-artists and scammers after slavery ended to enslave people again through other means.
The actor who played Lyndon B. Johnson was spot on. Also, the actress who portrayed young Hillary looked very much like her.
I'm not going to vote for Hil

No matter your political leanings, this simply isn't a very well made film. Historical scenes are poorly reenacted and other dramatic scenes are laughably staged with D'Souza himself in a starring role.

It's hard to conceive of how the film could make its argument any worse if D'Souza was deliberately attempting to overthrow the Republican Party from within.
Full Review | Original Score: 1/10 | Dec 17,
Earns unintentional laughs time and again, but at a certain point it stops being funny and becomes offensive instead, frightening in its constitutional debasement and exploitative sideshow spectacle. It couldn't be any more un-American if it tried.

If you don't like Hillary Clinton, you'll find a lot here to give you comfort, but there's no way any intellectually honest critic could make the case that it's a good movie.
