Killswitch is an unmissable documentary that gives insight into the political battle for the internet and how it effects free speech across the globe. Even if you are not an avid user of the internet, the attempts to regulate the internet has the potential to destroy a major part of communication. Killswitch evaluates many famous controversies in which the American government clashes with citizens over their rights on the internet. The lively narration and beautiful imagery breaks the stereotype that documentaries are purely informative, lacking the entertainment value that blockbuster movies are accompanied with. There is no doubt that you will be questioning the way the American government and how to take action to reform the way the government works.

With so much controversy around net neutrality, there is no better time to watch this movie. It cleared up all of my questions about the issue and gave me some insight and history on the matter. I would recommend this movie to anyone who is an avid internet user, as it pertains to all of those who access the internet. While there has been a great deal of awareness raised, this movie is the next step to understanding the issue at hand. Understanding the legislation, politics, and business behind the issue of net neutrality is essential to keeping the internet free of corporate interests. Without information about net neutrality there is no way to contribute in the fight to preserve it.

The Internet is under attack. This award-winning documentary explores the threat Internet censorship imposes on free speech, innovation, and democracy. While not an expert on the Internet, I feel I have a pretty god handle on technology. This film still taught me a few things about certain laws and regulations that affect how the online world works, and how much influence the MPAA has. (And I apparently forgot that Chris Dodd was involved.) The reason I can't give the movie a full endorsement is that it is so obviously one-sided. I tend to think it is on the right side, but even so, a great documentary should be a little bit more fair. There is no attempt at an argument about the violation of ownership rights. Although the focus is "censorship", we also dip into the idea of information monopoly (the Western Union and AT&T examples), and even the private funding of public campaigns, which seems like an entirely different issue. But for Lawrence Lessig, it is very much inter-related.

Killswitch is an excellent film, managing to be both informative and entertaining, with superb pacing and a strong voice. As "Food Inc." and "Inside Job" are to the food and financial industry, "Killswtich" is to the Internet. Arguing vociferously for a free and open internet, it pulls no punches on Republicans or Democrats, going after politcians and media giants with vengeance. Despite this fact, none of the film seems heavy handed, perhaps this is because soft-spoken sage, Harvard Constitutional Law Professor carries the film with an intellect that is difficult to argue against. The way the film is able to capture the intricate mentor/mentee relationship between Internet prodigy Aaron Swartz and Lessig takes the film to new heights. Without giving away the ending, let's just say the director took me on an emotional roller-coaster, that left me inspired by the end of the film. If you are looking for the film that successfully humanizes the Internet and will make you feel like doing whatever is necessary to protect it, this film is for you. I give it a 10/10.
