Guaranteed to fill you with rage and more than a little shame.

My biggest complaint ? "No End in Sight" is a documentary, a genre that thrives on factual representation and engages the viewer's sense of time and space. "Encounters at the...": it was like being in Antartica, "King of Kong": I found myself cheering for Steve Wiebe,... Here, I felt like Alex from Clockwork Orange, looking at an extravaganza of disturbing/disgusting, though well documented material which (quoting the last line of the film), "made me angry". A good/informative film, not great.

Normally I watch these hot topic documentaries and think "that's good and all, but nothing I didn't know." Here there was a good amount of stuff I didn't know. Even being aware of the basics, the depth of some of the mismanagement and willful blindness on display is incredible.

Ferguson may spell out his grim view of the Iraq war in the terse title he's bestowed upon his documentary, but that's about the pushiest aspect of this careful consideration of the march to war and the blind bungling that has turned it into a disaster. Ferguson channels whatever indignation he may have into a lawyerly cataloging of evidence until the exhibits flickering by add up to an overwhelming case against the Bush administration. It has the puncturing accomplishment of potent journalism.

A lot of amazing information, delivered by talking heads. Drags somewhat.

An Inconvenient Truth on crack. Very, very complex and very, very well done. It will piss you off.

Bully of the world gets his pants down. Mostly not because he is a bully, but because he sucks at bullying. Good documentary that tries to put things into perspective.

I'm not a fan of politics, since you can never know what is the truth and I hate when people seem to think they are so very right about something they do not know very well. As a result, I have been sadly ignorant about the situation in Iraq but No End in Sight as saved my ignorance. The film is frustrating due to its lack of explanation or conclusion on why the things that happened, happened, but this is what makes the film a great history lesson and not a preachy mess. It paints America, th

it says like that: "democrats could have made the war more effective, efficient and humane." but it would still be an imperialist war. american imperialism by backdoors

"Charles Ferguson has designed No End in Sight to sink in." - Ed Gonzalez

Very informative documentary. It is fascinating that within a year and a half of this film's release, it appears somewhat "outdated" given the remarkable changes in the security situation in Iraq.

Third Reich propagandist wet dream

The most direct, simple, and convincing film about the Iraq War and the quagmire that has followed to date.

Uncompromising look at the incompetence of the Iraq war. This transcends political bias and simply presents the facts - without any sugar coating - directly from the people involved, and not the political spinsters. Embarrassingly for the USA, this war will always be remembered as the "what not to do" example in the military text books of the future.

Interviews top military and political figures involved in in the Iraq War, stays very factual and interview-centric, and drives a point hard. A very well-made doc.

easily the most persuasive anti-iraq war film. told from insiders and doesn't reek of bias in the slightest.

This is the biggest and best Bush Administrative spanking that exists today. Not only is it full of facts but candid interviews with people who genuinely wanted to help Iraq. Superb integrity unlike a few other ones on this subject I've seen but wholly depressing documentary that explains, and backs up, how, on every level, the invasion of Iraq was doomed to cataclysmic failure from the start and as more bad decisions are made it becomes even harder to do anything positive in the country.

Writing this review in 2010, several weeks after Operation Iraqi Freedom has ended and the "Combat Mission" is over. We still have 50,000 troops there. Though they are on a support mission, they still sustain casualties. I'm patiently waiting for the title of this film to be outdated.

While the presentation is strictly workmanlike, the litany of ideologically-driven decisions, ignored advice, and sheer retardation documented here reaches a critical mass of idiocy that should leave any thinking person frothing with rage.

I'm really sick of documentaries that hinge around finding a hodgepodge of people to spout off the whole time, but this one doesn't get too grating.

Even more fascinating and disgusting than _Taxi to the Dark Side_. All about how the Shrub crew completely screwed up the invasion of Iraq from practically the word go. More disturbing than most horror films

Kudos to Ferguson to bring to light, the behind the scenes bureaucratic idiocy that led to the collapse of Iraq and its current state of lawfulness. If attacking Iraq on false pretexts weren't bad enough, the mind-numbing stupidity of the Bush administration to let a country slip to chaos and ruin is unpardonable. A must-see for every American, and hopefully it will serve as an eye opener.

This movie was greatly influenced my perception of the conflict in Iraq. It really, truly, opened my eyes to the apparently correct side of a debate that I had not cared about. Anything this formative is worth investigating, even if you disagree.

A very important bit of history laid down on tape for the archives. The sad thing is that we came so close to doing this right, but the wrong people were in charge. And those people are too scared to talk about it
