Acting was embarrassingly bad. Dialog equally bad. Positive message though so I guess there's that but people giving this 10/10 are insane, it's not a good movie.

Just a bunch of propaganda trash. Definitely not worth your time of day also ironic a backer gets arrested for trafficking…

Mere days ago, I found myself watching Leni Riefenstahl's infamous Nazi propaganda movie Triumph of the Will, and while certainly this doesn't wield such blatant coercion, it undeniably carries the echoes of propaganda manipulation. Based onMere days ago, I found myself watching Leni Riefenstahl's infamous Nazi propaganda movie Triumph of the Will, and while certainly this doesn't wield such blatant coercion, it undeniably carries the echoes of propaganda manipulation. Based on a true story becomes a familiar refrain when it comes to movies as we've come to realize that when narrative cravings beckon, reality's contours may bend to entertain. And if you know a bit about Tim Ballard, who beyond his propagation of Qanon's lies, the same ones spread by the demented Jim Caviezel who plays him, you'll know that he's a guy who allows his donors to participate in the raids in which they are supposedly saving victims of child trafficking, feeding of course the vigilante fantasy that his followers crave and that this same film tries to exploit as if it were a documentary.
You don't know what became of the victims or the criminals, but you know they are fighting ''evil.'' It is the rotten spawn of the egregious Pizzagate nonsense, engineered to poison feeble minds with its toxic rhetoric.
This is the kind of garbage that feeds them because this movie is basically recruitment material, just that.
Brainwashing unsuspecting morons into becoming an army of deranged cultist crusaders and gullible followers blinded by the manipulations of political puppeteers and grifters who are masters of their very thoughts and actions.

Personally, I found it an incompetent and emotionless film, but as I've always said, regardless of the topic, I will never tell anyone what they shouldn't see. It's all up to you.… Expand

But there’s little transparency here about how seeing Monteverde's film can help stop child sex trafficking, as this movie suggests. The suspiciousness of "Sound of Freedom" is queasy itself.… Expand

The unrealistic idea of kids being swept away to different continents as party of this worldwide scheme to traffick kids is a fairytale, and too many people take this as truth.

The truth is that 95%+ of kids who are trafficked are abused by friends and family members, and likely it is happening in your own neighborhood. You hear of amber alerts when a family member loses a child to a stranger or someone they know is dangerous, but that's the minority. You won't hear the amber alert when it's an uncle/aunt/friend/parent abusing their kids, because nobody is going to report it.

The fact that this became a political movie with ignorant people saying "oh yeah libs love trafficking children" is rediculous, and this movie is only getting as much traction as it is as a result of grifting the people who think this is reality.… Expand

Way too much noise around the movie, trying to give it some kind of ultra deep meaning it has not.

The movie equivalent of meth - a bunch of sketchy people tell you about this great thing you should try, then you find out what it is and question being friends with those people.

Underlying tones are kinda insulting to the subject matter at hand. Decent moments, but really just a bad film for a heavy subject matter.

Q Anon nonense. Utter crap. The movie is based on a Q Anon man who lies and exaggerates and is starring a man who is a Q Anon. These are deranged conspiracy theorists who made this pornographic lurid film. Really gross.

Biggest waste of film making resources in history. Read the facts on a true news outlet and you'll find this is nothing more than right wing propoganda, from the story line to the cast to the director, and on.
