Title: An exploitative movie with an agenda
Review: To me, the worst thing that a movie can be is "exploitative." This film is exploitative because it takes advantage of a sad, tragic situation and twists that situation to further the ultra-lefist agenda of the hollywood elite. The murder of Matthew Shepard was disgusting, despicable, and hateful. Rather than addressing the murder as such, this film compartmentalizes everyone involved as either "enlightened" (i.e. the New York people, the gays) or hateful "bumpkins" (i.e. the people of Wyoming, churchgoers) and this is very condescending! Polarizing films such as this do not teach lessons, succeed in changing closed minds, or provoke strong emotions from the viewers because it is too obsorbed in furthering the agenda of the filmmakers and actors while subverting the true message and power of the story.
