'September Tapes' is Low-Budget, Thank God Curtis Kekoa III April 30, 2005
I just viewed the movie September Tapes which was released into theatres September 24, 2004.  I concede it’s been almost six years since I’ve seen such intensity on the movie screen.  September Tapes is an astonishingly melded piece of cinematography which propelled me to the edge of my seat and beyond earthly repose throughout the film's entirety.  Producers, directors, actors, etcetera, have taken advantage of one of humanity’s frailties to bring about what in my opinion surmounts to a lifetime’s masterpiece, complete with real people, real times and real emotions.   September Tapes should be viewed by anyone who ever wasted themselves on anything less, which is most. September Tapes brings to mind Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 911, a documentary about the misgivings concerning 9-11 as well as its related events, both previous and subsequent.  I do not believe, however, that Fahrenheit’s cinematography meets the high marks of September Tapes.  I do know that Fahrenheit attempts to portray reality in the fairest light despite Michael Moore’s political proclivities, and that Fahrenheit sits a comfortable second behind September Tapes in doing so (within the last six years, of course). No, I am not a Democratic Party sympathizer, nor do I feed from the trough of the Republican camp.  Both neglect even the fundamental rights of truth, that which is between right and wrong, and as such both Democrats and Republicans at large are culpable in rejecting what is good for our Nation and implementing that which works to destroy it.   As I told my wife recently, nothing is as it seems.  And watching September Tapes and Fahrenheit 911 will not exchange in one fell swoop the conditioned reality which you posses for anything which opposes that reality.  I pray, however, that it opens eyes to something other than the usual agitprop we all have been formed to receive without reservation.  If anything, Fahrenheit 911 and particularly September Tapes gives one the satisfaction of having watched something which challenges the spirit, instead of the usual Hollywood toxin which seeks to destroy it.  In other words, it was worth the money. I thought September Tapes was excellent.  When’s the last time you saw a movie which was excellent?
