<p>any thoughts on the movie? here a link if you havnt seen it to a trailer YouTube</a> - Waiting for Superman Official Trailer</p>
<p>I just purchased this on ITUNES and plan to watch it during a coast to coast flight this weekend. Will let you know what I think afterwards.</p>
<p>I really enjoyed this movie. My D wanted to see it. I am a former teacher and I had some hesitation going in. It was very well done, I appreciated the topic of unfit teachers. It did a fine job of highlighting issues with teachers who are just riding it out and not really teaching. It also showed great examples of families doing everything in their power to get a good education for their children. The magnet schools profiled are really exeptional schools. I think you will really enjoy the movie. Food for thought, and great discussion afterwards.</p>
<p>Just watched it last night. It’s a documentary, and I was in the mood for a Saturday night movie (so I was hesitant going into it). Well, it was a “10”. AMAZING. Both my husband and I wiped tears. How could you not? </p>
<p>I guess it is by the same guy who made An Inconvenient Truth. Apparently, it was a disturbing experience for him, in that what he uncovered contradicted his core belief system about education in this country.</p>
<p>This film is a must-see.</p>
