WAITING FOR SUPERMAN (Theatrical Release USA 2010)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.6|5.0 Starsìììì

Waiting for Superman—informative documentary—has a well-planned, easy-to-follow format that completes itself with good data that is simple to understand. It is well-made and stands as a very good testimony to its overall message. The interviews are top notch as they adhere to and support the movie’s basic premise.
