This film is essentially preaching to the choir. Which is fine, but not really entertaining. Nor does it seek intelligent debate. When you have a film that opens up with someone saying "Science is beautiful and right, and religion is not beautiful and not right" - you know what you are getting into here - people who are just as closed minded as those they are accusing of such.What I don't understand is why these people who pride themselves on being smarter than everyone else have nothing better to do than to try to convince believers of any religion that having faith is wrong by means of trying to make them feel stupid. If it makes people happy why are you interfering?What baffles me is how these so-called geniuses condemn "religion" so readily and yet can't accept the concept that a higher being is responsible for their scientific findings. Funny enough one of them even says "to assume the truth without asking the questions leads you nowhere" - yet he is assuming within his own beliefs - which is that natural selection etc occurred without the presence of a deity.Anyway, people these days don't want to hear anything contradictory to their own world-view so this film that attempts to be smart is actually very dumbed down, knowing that it is essentially just telling a certain group of people what they already want to hear.Because it refuses to understand the other side of the debate it is not brave, it is not exciting and it is not intelligent. But Ricky was in it so I'll give them a couple stars for that.

I admire the bravery, articulation, integrity and intelligence of this man.I enjoyed watching it. I'm purchasing Lawrence Krauss book. Thank you,Katrina ; )(N/A) I need more words to fill the guidelines to post this. I don't know why there must be a full ten lines of text to post this. I am wondering if this is supposed to be more of a book review, than a comment section. For whatever reason this site has for this I am annoyed.

This film is a documentary that captures a road trip of two prominent spokesmen of atheism around the world. It does not try to convince non-atheists to become atheists or try to argue anything (or even make a point), it merely shows the road trip these guys made and the growing interest in atheism.That said, I see a lot of reviews here which are just blatant attempts from religious people to rate this movie as low as possible, and take cheap shots at atheists in the process. I've seen people argue that atheism is a mental disease, supposedly actually written down in the DSM. Don't take these clowns seriously. They probably mean that sometimes atheism is seen as a symptom. People with autism, for example, are more convinced by things they can see and touch than invisible beings like God. Therefore, a lot of them don't believe in God.The film itself is pretty entertaining. If you're a fan of Dawkins and/or Krauss, this is a fun to watch experience that shows them basically on a road trip. If you're not, this might not interest you that much.

How ever much I may agree with Dawkins and Krauss, it was hard to watch their story because of the film maker. The two are edited to represent atheist rock stars without the actual footage to back it up. Loud music and some inserts don't convince anyone these days.Just show, don't tell by overdoing your edits. Besides, the locations visited weren't put to use to tell an overarching story. It was basically just following them. The only scene I actually appreciated as a documentary-like scene was the one where Krauss is constantly harassed for a picture or a question. That is fun, and brings the character to life. Putting them in one room and hoping something unique will happen isn't enough to make an interesting movie.Luckily, Krauss and Dawkins are full of witty remarks and interesting insights, and that's what pulled me through it.
