Today my family and I went to see "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed". I thought it was a very well put together documentary [though I'm not a documentary guru or anything]. I think you should all see it.At the beginning, it shows, in black & white footage, the Berlin wall being built. I loved how throughout the movie, footage from the Berlin wall was used as a comparison to the evolution vs. intelligent design situation.
SPOILER ALERT
my only gripe...
Near the end of the movie, the music starts to build up. During this time, they switch out between clips of Ben Stein speaking on a stage, other people who had spoken earlier, and President Regan speaking at the Berlin wall. It kept building and building. I knew that at the climax of the music, Ronald Regan would be saying, "...Tear down this wall" and then I'd be able to jump up and give a wonderful applause! Instead, it built up to part of the wall coming down, which was good, I guess. But I was REALLY wanting to hear "Tear down this wall"!!! It just seemed a bit anticlimactic. I was sad. :(
Other than that, the movie was very good and I highly recommend it.
I've also seen "I am Legend" and will hopefully have time to make a post about that soon. [I really liked it, just so you know.]

I saw expelled too (Friday I think) with a few friends from my youth group. It ended up only being four of us, apparently it sold out. I also really enjoyed the movie. I love how the evolutionists made themselves sound stupid. I will definately be going to see it again with any other family/friends that want to go. I also highly recomend this movie.
