    Though Ben Stein is perhaps most famous for his sleep-inducing drone in FERRIS BUELLER`S DAY OFF or for his eponymous game show, he is also a highly regarded New York Times columnist and was a speechwriter for both Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford during their presidencies. For EXPELLED: NO INTELLIGENCE ALLOWED, he needs all his powers of persuasion as he calls attention to the plight of exiled scientists and professors. In this documentary, Stein travels the world and speaks to men and women who have lost their jobs and their standings in the scientific world because of their association with intelligent design. EXPELLED uses the Berlin Wall as a metaphor and asserts that these people have been unjustly ousted, merely for speaking their minds. It carefully explains the differences between creationism and intelligent design and demonstrates that the latter is a belief held by people of all deity-based faiths, not just Christianity. It also devotes time to the connections between Darwinism and Hitler`s regime. The film`s climax features Stein going head-to-head with Richard Dawkins, a renowned atheist and author of the bestseller THE GOD DELUSION. Obviously, neither man budges in his firmly held beliefs, but it`s fascinating to watch a debate between two undeniably intelligent men, regardless of whose side you`re on.

    EXPELLED doesn`t spend most of its time debating intelligent design and evolution. Instead it focuses largely on how the debate itself and its proponents have been ignored or pushed out of classrooms and academia. Filmmaker Nathan Frankowski inserts both original animations and clips of famous films (including PLANET OF THE APES and THE WIZARD OF OZ) to further illustrate his point. Though critics may find fault with EXPELLED for its one-sidedness, it`s no more biased than any of Michael Moore`s critically lauded documentaries.

  • Expelled

    A very good bargain for the price. A great movie. It came quicky and was packaged to protect it from getting damaged.

  • Must See

    Very thought provoking. A must see. If you're looking for a movie that captures and holds your attention, this is it. You need to see for yourself.

  • Using Our Intelligence

    Thank goodness there are still entertaining documentaries which get us thinking on many viewpoints! A lot to think about here, interesting interviews and NOT just what is the current thing to believe (or not).Agree or disagree - it is fascinating to hear the diffuse opinions and diverse ideas. No one has ALL the answers but the scientist living in France comes close!. This is superbly done!

  • Awesome!

    Awesome. Insightful. The best documentary I've ever seen. Ben Stein set out to honestly ask questions and get answers, and what he uncovers is startling. This is the best, most honest ID vs. Evolution that I have ever seen, in an open, honest forum.

  • Pay Attention Folks!

    I found this very interesting and informative and would have to disagree with the critics comparison to a Michael Moore production. Michael Moore flat out makes things up and everything here was backed up by both sides of the argument for or against intelligent design. Two things I found so interesting about this movie is that professors and scientists have lost their jobs for just speaking or writing the words intelligent design, not agreeing or disagreeing with it, simply speaking or writing the words and also when Darwinists are pushed into a corner, they admit that they do not know where that first single cell that evolved actually came from. They only can guess.I plan on watching this again since it is an education piece, one has to pay attention. I recommend it simply because people are not paying attention to what is going on in this world.
