Great Film, a hilarious and surprising journey. Yes you can be a revolutionary!, 26 October 2009
10/10
Author: thethingsidou from United States

I had the advantage of seeing this film at the Fort Lauderdale Film Festival yesterday and it was wonderful. A must see movie. A boys adventure with two misfits taking on a serious subject matter (Global Warming). Lightheartedly challenging all of us to do something about the way we live to bring attention to the ill-effects of climate change whether it be big or small. Have you ever gotten on you hat-box about an issue and wanted to do something about it but never did? Well here's an inspirational example of two guys nervously following there gut and making us all laugh while doing so. Saving the planet isn't easy so "Don't be Impotent" "Be Important". Go on now see the film!
