It's decent. I'm not a huge Kevin Smith fan because he can't, you know direct and stuff but it's an entertaining movie. At least it doesn't have Jay and Silent Bob. That's a plus for any movie.
 
I admittedly haven't seen this.

My fear is that without Jay and Sideshow Bob, I'm afraid Kevin Smith devolves into Michael Moore.
 
Is that the movie about the presidential candidate who travels to Kansas or whatever to convince one person to vote for him or something?

No, you're thinking of a Kevin Costner movie I think.
Red State is about a Fred Phelps-ish church.

Thank you. I wish there was some way I could have looked that up myself instead of asking the world's dumbest question, but alas...I'm afraid that technology is still many years away.

Future generations will have a series of tubes in which information is shared.

Red State is available on Netflix as a streamer... I'm gonna watch it tonight after the family goes to bed.
 
I turned it off after 15 minutes. The beginning was pretty craptastic, too.

It's poorly directed like any Kevin Smith movie so it begins and ends sloppy. The end especially is poorly written and directed although not bad in and of itself. It just rambles on for no reason. The middle is decent though. Not great mind you but decent. In someone elses hands it might actually be very good.

Honestly I wanted to like it and I'm into violent cults and freaky storylines, but the beginning was dragging hard and I just got bored.

Yep... watched this flick last night... found myself fast-forwarding at one point. The "action" portions were just OK for me... wouldn't recommend it as a must see... definitely a "B" movie at best :(
