The fusion of fiction and independent journalism adds to the complexity of a story that exposes the 'news' as a narrative cowritten by the government and the TV networks.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Stephen Marshall's admirable but unfocused new film is set in New York City during the 2004 Republican National Convention.
Anita Gates, New York Times
Rotten
Marshall says he was inspired by the Haskell Wexler cult classic Medium Cool, filmed at the infamous 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago. He has a lot to learn before he'll be anywhere near Wexler.
V.A. Musetto, New York Post
Rotten
As any revolutionary knows, there's a big leap between theory and practice, and that leap proves too much for tyro helmer Stephen Marshall's This Revolution.
Robert Koehler, Variety

It's the kind of engaged, political filmmaking that is rarely seen today, and it's a welcome and powerful addition to the canon.
