Racist baby impersonator Matt Forney has said some ridiculously positive things about Mike Cernovich in the past, declaring the alt-right fellow traveler’s Gorilla Mindset book to be
one of the most life-changing books you can buy … a must-buy … you can’t afford not to buy Gorilla Mindset. … Click here to buy Gorilla Mindset.
Forney was nearly as happy to recommend Cernovich’s followup, MAGA Mindset, declaring it a “must-read” for anyone wanting to turn themselves into a miniature Trump.
This enthusiasm has not carried over to the Cernovich-produced documentary Silenced, a film profiling a number of the noisiest silent people the world has ever known, from Dilbert creator and Dunning-Kruger poster boy Scott Adams to internet bully/journalist Milo Yiannopoulos to Cernovich himself.
It seems like Silenced would be right up Forney’s piss-drenched alley. But he doesn’t seem to have enjoyed it very much. In a review on Right On — “an online resource for the rising True Right of Europe” — Forney makes clear that the film is not as good as CATS and that he won’t be seeing it again and again.
Silenced is dragged down by its sluggish pacing, weak direction and questionable editing.
Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to get blurbed on the movie posters.
Silenced has no narration and little music, meaning the only thing to guide the viewer are the interviews, making me feel like I’m on a guided tour of Mammoth Cave and Ranger Rick is taking a nap instead of doing his job.
I’m not exactly sure what the hell Forney is talking about here, but I’m pretty sure that’s not supposed to be complimentary.
At times, Silenced feels like Jordan Owen’s cut of The Sarkeesian Effect, a film so wretched that watching it gave me a throbbing headache.
Yipes.
Amazingly, even after this, Forney gives the film a thumb’s up, albeit a thumb’s up of tiny Trump-fingered proportions.
The final product is still worth watching, but you’ll need to steel yourself to make it to the end. … its direction and editing make watching it more of a slog than it should be.
Silenced: A badly directed snoozefest that may just give you a throbbing headache! Christmas fun for the whole family!
